How I Do What I Do: Cleaning With Little Ones
This is the way they clean the house, clean the house, clean the house!
At least it’s how my creative little ones do it (you know, when I’m not yelling at them to actually “Get on it!” and having to detail each and every move they make next!)
These are not all the same day, I’ve taken these pictures over the last year and they make me laugh every time I see them!
The 3 above pictures are when I told them to pick up all the crayons that had been dumped.
This one is how we clean out the couch cushions. I pull ‘em all off, get a bucket, and let them go “treasure hunting” - then they have to find “homes” for all the treasures they find. They’re usually so excited about finding toys they’ve lost, because, you know, I do this kind of cleaning all of 2 times a year! Whatever they leave gets trashed. While I vacuum, I let them make hideouts with the cushions.
And this picture just cracks me up! I told my girl to go around and hunt down all of her toys and put them in this spot so that we can put them away later. I walked over a little later and she had arranged them while cleaning, into this. That girl! She’s so funny!















Too cute! I love how she’s also cleaning in a fancy dress.
I came over via your “invitation” over on HOTM. I’ll take you up on the coffee–but w/ plenty of fat free French vanilla creamer. ‘Cuz I’m picky that way.
SO nice to meet you.
I came over via Heart Of the Matter..I am a eclectic homeschool momma, Charlotte Mason Style too ( I have no clue either)but you have been doing this a bit longer then me so I hope to learn from you and laugh with you!
I love the crayons in the toes!!
