House Cleaning Fun!

This tip can be fun and effective, especially with pre teens and teenagers in the house. Write individual tasks on seperate pieces of paper and place into a hat or bowl. Each person picks out a task to complete, and tasks need to be completed within a certain time.

It's best everyone in the house is contributing to this GAME. Awards can be given to the best cleaned task or for everyone's effort. It may also help to have details or tick boxes required to complete the task. Lots of FUN and encouragement.
