The back-to-school season is a time of new beginnings and fresh starts. As your family transitions from the relaxed summer days to the structured school year, it's the perfect opportunity to refresh your cleaning routine. With the hustle and bustle of new schedules, extracurricular activities, and homework, having a clean and organized home can make all the difference. At Therapy Clean, we believe that a non-toxic, plant-based cleaning routine can enhance your family's well-being during this busy time.
Embracing the New Season with a Clean Slate
A thorough cleaning session can help clear out the remnants of summer and prepare your home for the months ahead. By tackling areas that may have been neglected during the summer, you set the stage for a more organized and stress-free school year. We like to divide the process into a two step approach, where we deal with “stuff” and “space”.
The first step? Tackle all the “stuff” by making time to declutter. Sort through clothes, last year’s school supplies, and household items (we’re looking at you, Fourth of July decorations) to create a more organized space. Donate or recycle items you no longer need and create designated spaces for school-related items. Set up a homework station, organize backpacks and lunchboxes, and establish a system for important papers and schedules. A well-organized home reduces stress and makes it easier to stay on top of the busy school year.
Once you’ve organized the stuff, it’s time to focus on your space. By this we mean a deep cleaning session to address areas that accumulate dust and grime over time. Focus on high-traffic areas like the kitchen, bathrooms, and entryways. Use Therapy Clean’s all-purpose cleaner to spray down surfaces, disinfect commonly touched areas, and ensure a fresh, clean environment for your family.
A new school year is also a great time to establish a new cleaning routine that fits your family's schedule. Consistent, manageable cleaning habits can help maintain a tidy home throughout the year. Incorporate quick daily tasks to keep your home clean. Wipe down countertops, sweep the floors, and tidy up common areas. Using plant-based, non-toxic products like those from Therapy Clean ensures a safe environment for your family. Dedicate specific days of the week to tackle larger cleaning tasks. For example, designate Mondays for laundry, Wednesdays for bathroom cleaning, and Saturdays for vacuuming and dusting. A weekly schedule helps distribute the workload and keeps your home consistently clean.
Finally, make cleaning a family affair. Assign age-appropriate tasks to your children to teach them responsibility and teamwork. Turn on some music and make it a fun, bonding activity. With everyone pitching in, maintaining a clean home becomes more manageable and enjoyable.
