Zone Cleaning the Bathroom – Getting Organized

Getting Organized:
In your home and homeschool

Because I spend two minutes a day cleaning my bathroom, I don’t have a lot of detail cleaning to do each month in my bathroom, but I still check the drawers and cabinet to declutter items. The bathroom is a very used room in most homes, and it takes a little effort to keep it tidy. Once you are in the habit of wiping down the tub/shower, sinks, and toilet daily, you will see how a little effort goes a long way to keep you from needing to deep clean the bathroom. If you have developed this habit, please email me.

We are in our third week of the homeschool year, and I will say it has been an adjustment in many ways as we have moved up a level in our work and in my expectations. Enjoy your year!

 

Zone Mission: Declutter the bathroom cabinet or shelf.
