I have always taught my kids that cleaning is fun and we always have the music on and are singing as we go. This makes it fun and enjoyable and they don’t feel it is a chore. They actually like doing the cleaning and sometimes ask me to do it before I think of it!

I don’t remember that song at all. Must have blanked it out because it had such a negative message. Anyway, glad to hear it didn’t influence you, Amy. And, by the way, I still enjoy housework because it feels so good to have a clean home when I’m finished.

When it’s time for the Saturday morning cleaning routine, put on some really fast music, really loud. It gets you going and having fun at the same time. Also, you can establish a reward when the cleaning is done – go to the park or something else fun (my reward is a piece of cake, but this is about healthy eating, so forget that reward and pick something active to do instead, or a hot bath, or a good book, etc.
