Clean the Living Room And Renew Comfort In Your Home

How’s your living room looking?

Take 5 minutes to do a quick run through, picking up anything that doesn’t belong, any dishes etc.

If most of the stuff belongs to your kids, get a basket to put it in and let them put it away.

Get a decorative basket and make it a regular habit.

Better yet, have the kids go through the livingroom for 5 minutes every day to pick up their things – they can use their own basket to make it a little more fun.

We also have a no eating rule in the livingroom because our kids just will not remember to bring their dirty dishes to the kitchen, also it saves on the furniture and rug. And I have a thing about dog and cat lick on the dishes.

Of course, we end up breaking it sometimes if we are having a family movie night or something like that, but as a general rule, there is no eating in the living room unless the kids can remember to clean up their dishes and mess.

The livingroom is a room with great potential for family togetherness – take 5 minutes to set an example…

and make it nice…
