Kid-Sized Cleaning


OMAHA, Neb., June 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Summer is here and kids are looking for fun both inside and out. If your home pays the price in kid-sized messes, get the kids involved in cleaning using these fun tips from THE MAIDS Home Services.

    -- Don't expect kids to use adult tools to clean, instead create supplies
       that are kid-friendly. Use an ice-cream pail for mopping chores or
       shorten an old mop handle or broom to make it kid-sized.

    -- Fill a squirt gun from a solution of a gallon of water and a drop of
       dish soap. Let kids squirt windows and mirrors and wipe dry with paper
       towels. Leaves glass clean and streak free!

    -- Cover kids' hands and arms with dad's old athletic socks then squirt
       the socks until lightly damp with a safe solution of vinegar and water.
       Send them off to dust around the house.

    -- Got a pile of blocks or action figures strewn on the floor? Scoop up
       toys in a few swoops using a kid-sized leaf rake to form a pile for
       easy pick-up.

    -- Make cleaning a game; give young kids grill tongs and challenge them to
       pick up toys and put them in a toy box or bin only using the utensils.
       Keep score and see who wins!

    -- Don't forget the fun music to help your kids get a groove on as they
       boogie around the house cleaning.
