Life is something like, what I like to call, choose your own adventure.

Depending on your likes, dislikes, choices, and the choices of others that stupefy us, we end up with completely unique creative lives.

And this plays out very specifically in our homes. Some people are the type who wait until it’s messy then undeniability all their little ones into the kitchen and divide up duties.

On the other hand, others create some type of monthly or weekly cleaning schedule and they follow it. This ways the house never really has a endangerment to get messy.

My household goals:

• Clean, but welcoming
• Tidy, but useful
• Fells like peace & joy, not unconnectedness & confusion
• Not so full of “stuff” that I don’t have time for the people

How to create your weekly cleaning schedule

So, the key to creating your weekly cleaning schedule truly depends on your unique situation…

First, take a squint at your end goal. Do you want the house cleaned each week, or do you prefer cleaning on a monthly cleaning rotation?

I don’t live by anyone’s standards but my own. In the past, I heaped unneeded stress upon myself by falling into the comparison trap.

Remember, it’s only a problem if its a problem for you.

• The goody to a weekly cleaning schedule- A weekly cleaning schedule, when whoopee is taken every day can offer a sensible organizational pattern that is easy to follow and alimony up with. (See Option #1 below…)
• The goody of a monthly cleaning rotation– If you segregate to squint at the month as a whole, areas can be chosen to be thoroughly deep cleaned, and other areas may be left for just a tidy-up. (See Option #2 below…)

But first, create a cleaning routine

Truthfully, creating a cleaning schedule is all well-nigh routine and accountability. It’s the part of a the day that places “peace of mind” when on the table and allows for structure within a room.

You succeed a good cleaning routine by making it a part of your everyday habits.

If your children are old enough, let them wilt part of this daily habit. You’ll be surprised how much help they can be with a good cleaning routine!

Examples of when to wipe (and make it a daily habit)

• Toys and books can be cleaned up directly after they are washed-up using them (before leaving the room or going on to the next activity).
• After snack time, make it a routine to wipe the floors in the dinning room or kitchen.
• Do your kids nap or have “quiet time’? Part of your daily cleaning routine can be a room pick up before they lay down.
• Is it a self-ruling for all on Saturday mornings? Have the time surpassing play be a scheduled time to make sure all laundry is wipe and put away.
• Clean the toilets, sink, and floor while your little one is in the tub, or directly without he/she gets out.
• Before bed, do a walk through to make sure the living room and dinning rooms are organized and all items from that day are put away.

Option 1 – Daily Cleaning Tasks

If you plan to segregate Option # 1 (a weekly cleaning schedule), you’re probably looking for taking whoopee every day and making sense of how to organize the cleaning of your house.

Although there will undoubtedly be times of “deep cleaning”, a weekly schedule touches every room- every week.

To start, pick a day for each chore that needs to be done. Then, plan on stuff resulting each week with your routine.

Getting the whole house cleaned weekly can squint like a number of things. Here is an example:

• Monday- Floors
• Tuesday- Bathrooms
• Wednesday- Kitchen
• Thursday- Porches & Yard
• Friday- Bedrooms
• Saturday– Laundry & Extras

There are things that are going to have to be cleaned every day, such as countertops and dishes. However, maintaining a weekly cleaning schedule has proven to be useful when it comes to establishing a wipe home.

A weekly cleaning schedule really works!

Option 2 – Weekly Cleaning Tasks

If you prefer thinking well-nigh a monthly cleaning rotation, you’re looking at cleaning less each day. But, you’re putting the “below the surface” chores on your list. Your rotation will be a 4 week schedule.

While this may seem appealing, I have to be honest… it’s much harder to maintain and without weekly stability, children (and adults alike) take longer to reservation on to the routine.

One thing that can be washed-up is to take the “below the surface chores” and add one a week to your weekly cleaning list.

Here’s an example of what this may squint like:

• First Week: Focus on floors, baseboards, and walls. This includes mopping, vacuuming, dusting and polishing.
• Second Week: Focus on kitchen. This includes cabinets, refrigerator, oven, and other deep wipe situations.
• Third Week: Focus on deep cleaning bathrooms and organization of closets.
• Fourth Week: Focus on the bedrooms and garage/outside areas. This includes closets, under the beds, pressure washing, dusting, and mopping if needed.
