Trying to clean the house with kids can be exhausting, especially little ones.  Figuring out how to get your kids cleaning up the house with you can also be difficult, but once you do, actually getting the house clean becomes much easier to do.  

We’ve all been there as parents, when a room was cleaned just in time for someone to dump a bunch of blocks onto the floor to build a castle.  Or, we let the kids completely occupy themselves in the living room just so we can get the kitchen clean, which inevitable leads to the living room being a disaster zone.  

It happens. 

Why is it important to get the kids involved?

Aside from helping with your own sanity, getting the kids involved in cleaning the house helps them feel accomplished.  It’s like setting goals and achieving them.
