Daily housework to keep your house clean and tidy

Do you find it difficult to maintain your clean and tidy house? The current pace of life leaves us little time to enjoy our home and we don't always have the strength to take care of it as we should. The good news is that there are daily household tasks that, integrated into a routine, can help you change this in a short time.

Many times the key is not so much to clean and order but to get dirty and not messy. We know, it does not sound very promising, however, it is true that the more we let chaos run rampant in our homes, the more difficult it is to solve it and the more time and energy it takes to do so. That is why today, we propose a series of daily housework that will help you keep your house in order, which could be more but also less.

Don't do it alone! Housework should involve the whole family. So sit down to read these tasks with them and distribute them so that with 15 minutes a day per person, if you are three or four, you can keep your house clean and in order.

Take responsibility for your bedroom

The adult bedrooms They are very easy to maintain, since they are not rooms in which we spend a lot of time or get very dirty. Another different matter are those of children, who will also need the help of adults while they are small to be able to enjoy a clean and tidy space.

The essential daily tasks in a bedroom will be as follows: ventilate, make beds and collect the clothes in the closet, Also, in some cases it might be important to vacuum the floors. And how to organize yourself to do these tasks?

1. Ventilate. In winter, it is enough to ventilate the bedroom for 10 minutes in the morning to renew the air in the rooms, while in summer it could be interesting to do it both in the morning and at night to also refresh it. Take advantage while taking a shower or having breakfast to open the room and air out the bed.
2. Make the bed. Once you have ventilated, stretch the bed and leave it made. Let children from the age of six take care of theirs with your help. Even if at first they don't do it very well or there are days when they resist, they will adopt that routine.
3. Pick up the clothes in the closet. Whether it's in the morning or at night before going to sleep, take care of putting everything back where it belongs.
4. Sweep or vacuum floors daily it is not essential in every home but may be important in homes with long-haired pets and/or asthmatic sleepers and large rugs. And also in children's bedrooms where they play on the floor, paint, etc. If you can, invest in a robot vacuum and leave it on when you leave the house.

bathroom maintenance

A complicated space that forces us to maintain daily cleaning habits if we do not want to work twice as much on the weekend or see people appear moisture related problems or the lack of hygiene is the bathroom. It involves the whole family so that everyone…

1. rinse shower after using it and ventilate the bathroom behind it to renew the air.
2. hang up the towels en the towel rails or put them in the laundry basket if they have already completed their cycle.
3. Pick up hygiene products that are used.

Additionally, completing the following tasks will help you keep your bathroom clean and tidy, which will prevent you from having to work in it on the weekend. And I assure you that whoever has to do it every night you will not lose more than 10 minutes in these:

1. Quickly pass the sinkor with a cloth and a spray with a solution of water and vinegar or a disinfectant product that I advise you to have in the bathroom so that you do not waste time going to look for it and/or prepare it.
2. Pass the brush in the toilet immediately after.

The kitchen, the one that requires the most time

If the kitchen is used daily, is the one that you will have or will have to dedicate the most time to. It is not a time, however, that you should schedule, since most of the daily domestic tasks in this, as you will see below, consist of cleaning up or cleaning after cooking.

1. Clean the hob after using it.
2. Wash the dishes or put them in the dishwasher. Is the dishwasher full? The next task will be to put it on and once you have finished, return the plates, glasses and pans to their place.
3. after dinner, clean the counter and table with a damp cloth.
4. Bsweep and/or scrub the floors while you air out the kitchen to get it ready for the next day.

Common spaces

And what about the hall or the living room? You will not have to do anything in this room that you have not already seen in others. In these spaces, the key is to ventilate and not clutter, basically.

1. Ventilate the room for at least 10 minutes.
2. fold the blankets and replace sofa cushions when getting up
3. Pick up everything that is out of your place.
4. Vacuum the floors If the living room functions as a dining room, we have long-haired pets or we use it for some other activity that makes it more dirty. If not, it will suffice to do it on alternate days.

They may seem like many things but they are not. Now, do not try to do them all at once or carry all the tasks yourself if you do not live alone. He gradually integrates them into the routine and seeks balance. A and buy a robot vacuum cleaner; believe me they are very useful to lighten the daily routine and keep the house decent so that you do not need to dedicate yourself to the floors more than one day a week.
