It’s finally springtime, and that means welcoming new life in our natural environment! If you’re feeling positive about these changes, consider reflecting them in your home environment here at Circa LA with some spring cleaning! Tidying up unnecessary clutter can restore order into your apartment if it’s been building up through the year. Here are some tips to make the process simple and fun!
Engaging in Cleaning Games for Kids
If you have little ones, chances are, getting them to pick up the cleaning slack sends them running for the hills. By restructuring the way they think about tidying using cleaning games for kids, you might change things up for the better! These cleaning games add a playful element to otherwise mundane tasks, which helps build healthy chore habits in the long run. Plus, parents get the added benefit of reconnecting with their inner child by playing along too!
DIY Cleaners That Save You Money
Welcoming change can even start with the products you use to clean in the first place! When it comes to store-bought cleaning products, the prices can definitely cut into your household budget. Invest in a frugal and creative approach with DIY cleaners! Most of the time, making your own cleaning products requires very little supplies and cost pennies on the dollar to create. For example, this citrus-scented all-purpose cleaning spray uses just five ingredients, including some you may already have hiding in your kitchen cupboards!
Green Cleaning Hacks for the Earth
Making your own products comes with another plus: increasing eco-consciousness. Store-bought cleaners are typically made with harsh chemicals that can harm children and pets, and the strong smells linger long after you’re done using them. Switching to the naturally grime-fighting powerhouses of vinegar, baking soda, and borax lightens the load you make on Mother Earth, without skimping out on effectiveness. Check out this list of green cleaning hacks for advice on where to use natural cleaners around the house!
Once you set up a spring cleaning session, your apartment will bring a new sense of calm and renewal in every room. How do you plan on tackling that mess? Let us know in the comments!
