So you have kids, but want to keep the house clean? Good luck! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re kidding, but we do<\/em> know how difficult it is to have a sparkling space when you have little ones running around. With all the toys, stuffies, books, and everyday essentials you need as a parent, it\u2019s tricky to stay on top of everything. No one understands this more than Drew and Jonathan<\/a>\u2014but over the years, they\u2019ve found clever ways to control the chaos<\/a>, and they\u2019re ready to share their secrets with you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, you\u2019ll find Drew and Jonathan\u2019s best cleaning hacks for parents and busy families who want to maintain a clean and organized home<\/a>. Here\u2019s their first tip: Don\u2019t put too much pressure on yourself! You can only do so much in a day. But these hacks<\/a> will hopefully make it even easier to check things off your to-do list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Use Only What You Need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The more you have, the more you have to clean. Pare down to only what you need, while still making sure you have enough of the essentials so you don\u2019t have to constantly wash things. There\u2019s no sense in running half-empty dishwasher loads, so have just enough dishes to make it through a few days. \u2014Jonathan<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Get Outside<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During the warmer months, encourage more playtime outside<\/a>. They get fresh air and sunshine, and no one is cluttering up your clean living room. \u2014Drew<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Try Jonathan’s Golden Rule<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Keep the kids motivated to clean up their play area themselves. Our rule is: When we go out or when the kids go to bed, if they leave anything on the floor of the playroom or bedrooms, that means we can throw it out or donate it. They won\u2019t believe you the first time\u2014trust me\u2014so you do have to follow through. But it works! Now all I have to say is, “OK so you guys don\u2019t want this stuff?\u201d and they immediately run and put everything back. \u2014Jonathan<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Cleanup, But Make It Fun<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gameify it! We got Parker a little play vacuum when he was little and now he\u2019s graduated to a real mini one.<\/a> Cleaning is his favorite activity! Our floors have never been more spotless. With the older kids, you can make it a mini competition: Set the timer for 15 minutes and assign chores. If everyone completes theirs, they get a prize like a later bedtime or a special snack during movie night. \u2014Drew<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Cover Your Bases (And Your Floors)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In our playroom, we have these beautiful mats<\/a> that cover our hardwood floors. They protect the floors from damage, and they\u2019re also soft and waterproof so if the kids spill, it\u2019s easy to clean up. They look nice, too! \u2014Jonathan<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Take It One Activity at a Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is an oldie but it really works. Clean up after their first activity before moving onto the next. So if they\u2019re coloring, ask them to put away the crayons and paper before playing with toys. It\u2019ll save you from a stressful hours-long sweep at the end of the day. \u2014Drew<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. One In, One Out<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve trained the kids to understand the one in, one out mentality where we have to donate old toys to make room for new ones. It\u2019s a routine they\u2019re used to now, so they don\u2019t get upset when it\u2019s time to get rid of stuff. \u2014Jonathan<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Be Prepared for Anything (No Really, Anything)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s be honest: Kids are messy<\/em>. Even if you have meals and playtime relegated to specific rooms, there\u2019s still going to be accidents. So keep all your necessary stain removers handy<\/a>. I like to have Magic Erasers<\/a> for things like marks on the walls or tables, plus carpet and couch sprays for your everyday spills. \u2014Drew<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Use Smart Storage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Storage is essential and baskets in every room<\/a> are key. We also label all of our bins so it makes it easy for the kids to know where they should put their toys when they\u2019re done. \u2014Jonathan<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Drew’s Best Advice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My best tip? I said it here.<\/a> \u2014Drew <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
