Dance Parties

In our home we have dancing cleaning parties.  Why?  Because it makes cleaning fun and not a struggle.  I can easily admit that I have had yelling matches with my kids when it comes to cleaning where they are either in their room all day cleaning and I am yelling and grounding and I just couldn't do it anymore.

So we all sat down together and made a schedule because that is what works in our household.  So for a long time now before they leave their room they clean any mess they make and most important dancing parties.  Every night after supper we turn on Pandora and dance and clean together.  My kitchen is clean, my living room is clean, the girls help wipe down the bathrooms with Clorox wipes and they finish cleaning any mess they have in their room.

So that way we are having fun dancing and singing and cleaning.  There is no yelling,screaming,crying,grounding.  There is fun.

With kids it is all about making chores fun and dance parties work for us and I don't want them to remember me yelling about cleaning I want them to remember how we danced sang and had fun in our own home.
