Surprise Mom With These Cleaning Tricks

Posted on May 5th, 2021 by Devine Bros

The best way to surprise your mom on Mother’s Day is by helping out around the house! There are many chores that children can do that will make their mother happy and be an excellent learning experience for them. Letting kids help with small tasks will allow them to develop essential skills like organization and responsibility, so here are some easy cleaning tricks that kids can surprise mom with.

Take Care of Dishes

From emptying the dishwasher to hand washing certain dishes, it helps a lot when the whole family pitches in to keep plates and silverware clean after a meal. It shouldn’t all be left to one person! Mom mustn’t have to touch the dishes after her Mother’s Day meal; it’s her time to relax!

Clean the Windows

It might seem like a simple chore, but with spring settling in, you’ll want as much sunlight as possible shining in through the windows! Let in the warmth of the season for mom and the whole family to enjoy. The little ones can take on the lower half of the windows, and older kids can handle the tops. 

Have Some “Scientific” Fun

It isn’t always easy to get your kids interested in cleaning, but when you do make an almost science experiment out of it, it can help pique their interest! Everyday household items such as baking soda and lemon juice are robust cleaning supplies, not often thought of. Show your children the power of cleaning through unusual objects, such as using baking soda as a stain remover and lemons as natural bleaching agents. 

Invest in the Best Home Services

Of course, the little ones won’t know much about this. However, now is a great time to help mom breathe easy and stay cool this season! Here at Devine Bros., we’ll come in to clean and inspect many parts of your air conditioning, including the air filters, the condensate pump or drain, and anything else that might need upgrades. It will be up to your little ones to keep mom distracted while a technician comes in to get your HVAC system ready for the warmer season!
