professional house cleaner here, for stove tops I just soak the whole surface with an antibacterial or degreaser spray and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. Caked on gunk on the stove is the hardest in a whole house to get up so it's one of the few things I make sure to let sit so I'm working smarter, not harder :) once it sits for long enough the gunk turns to mush and is super easy to wipe up. Then I finish it off with a stainless steel spray to make it sparkle
An idea for the little bathroom..you could buy a small cabinet to put above the toilet to hide things in and then add a small washable rug in front of the toilet. You could also frame some of your kids artwork to hang on the wall.
I have a similar table with a hinged bench. We replaced it with one that I upcycled, then put the Farmhouse table upstairs as a game table and stored our games in the benches. Food for thought. Love your channel. Thank you for the motivation. I definitely needed this today. 👍❤️
FOr the water bottles, you can usually find plastic 1-2 gallon jugs with a spout/spigot that you could put on the end of the counter so the spout can be accessed. Sometimes they are plain or transparent colored or have a fancy design.
I rarely have had my house all clean at the same time. It's a seemingly never ending battle. My Mom once observed, "All your life you fight dirt...and then they throw it on you." 🙄😁😘
Hi I love watching ur videos, u just say how it is, and I really love that, I don’t think anyone with kids can get everything done at once, and when u do get things clean and tidy, they just mess it up again. I have 2 boys aged 6 and 4. They just have so much crap and toys around the house.😃
For the stove I like regular soap and water to clean, vacuum for the crumbs and a pumice stone or fine grit sand paper for scorch marks. Lysol wipes degrease in a pinch too
We tried so many different versions of keeping Legos organized. The circular drawstring mat that turns into a bag, drawers bins etc. In my 12 years of being a Lego parent, I honestly would say that what has worked best is to just have a dustpan and broom and teach the kids to sweep the leg goes up into a pile and then scoop them with the dust pan into bins. We also use trays for keeping creations on and pieces that they have sorted out for the creations, as they get older they’re going to want to do that. I wonder if you had one, a dustpan and a broom that is, that you kept upstairs just for a little toys with many parts, if you could train your boys to do this with the toy bins that they have to check out? I think if they got really good at just sweeping them up with a dustpan and broom, it would work for any of those sets. My son definitely Decided that was easiest for him.
Hi Mai!! Oh yes....the Legos. The bane of my foot's existence. 😆 My son got "addicted" to them when he turned 6.....he is now 19 and tells me he will never sell them. 😁 I bought a lot of 3-drawer (Sterilite brand) stackable units to hold his Legos. They work really well. I purchased a few at Walmart and found some at Goodwill which is definitely cheaper than buying them new. Happy sorting! 🤭😆
There is a video from Catherine on do it on a dime where she visits a kids room that is crazy for legos. His mom had a lot of good ideas on how to store the pieces and directions. Another suggestion is have you ever cleaned the play room with the boys. It may take you longer but the boys may learn what they need to do to keep it clean.
I use the pink paste for my cooker top you don’t use as much so not so much residue I also then use a microfibre cloth to wipe it down. Great video as usual, keep up the good work getting us motivated 🇬🇧
For legos: amazon has toy bags that open into mats to play on, then cinch up with all the little pieces trapped inside. Also, I bet you could make vacuuming the play room a game or privilege for your boys. They won't do it well at first, but they'll learn and won't fight cleaning when they get older.
I agree, I HATE cream cleansers for my stove! They themselves are such a pain to clean up! It will use just a little bit on the burned on area but I won’t use it on the whole stove. I just use a good liquid spray on degreaser for the entire stove top. Works great and it’s easy to wipe up!
Love the grout hack, I’ll be trying that one. The other thing I can recommend is to also clean that seam around the bottom of the toilet/tile line. When my boys were little sometimes they’d miss. That might be the source of your odor problem. Just a suggestion 🤓
IF you don't use your dining room table all the time it's just a waste of space especially since you have a super nice dining table in the kitchen. YOu could turn it into an organizational room/storage. Maybe turn the table into a work/packaging/etc. YOu could put the chairs(except for maybe 1) in storage and only bring them out when you're having a big family get together that requires more chairs
I clean my stove with water and norwex cloths. I spray water on it to soften anything that might have been baked on. Let sit for a few minutes that I wipe with the enviro cloth that has the scrubbie in the corner. It I have a stubborn spot, I will use some of the norwex paste which has never let me down. I love just being able to clean with water.
We have smart bulbs in our condo and and an Alexa. It seems like such a dumb thing to have until you don't. I love it! You can get all comfy in bed and not have to get up to turn off the light. I wouldn't recommend it for an entire house, just select rooms (it's a bit overkill). I used to have the ability to ask her to play certain shows on our TV and then we got a bigger TV and they don't connect anymore
I'm glad my house isn't the only one that somehow always get dirty with crap everywhere. I have a 9 year old and a 6 month old. Since baby has been born I feel like I can't get my rhythm back to keeping my house clean.
Try using a wet microfiber cloth rag when you are trying to get that stuff off having something wet that stays wet helps getting off cleansers like that
If that would've been 💩 on the toilet brush it would've been my experience not long ago 🤣 I go to clean the toilet & smear poopy around cuz my son had used the brush to unstop the toilet 🤦🏽♀️ never told me & put the dirty brush back in holder- Kids are full of surprises 🙃 Great video 👍🏽
Pro organizer here. For kids rooms, I put a picture and the word on toy container labels. I personally use a very sturdy 4 drawer organizer for the Legos. Also. One more thing. You are CONSTANTLY vacuuming and washing the carpet under the kitchen table. Wouldnt it make your life so much easier to just leave it hardwood until the kids are bigger? You are using a ton Of your valuable time Messing with the carpet under the table. Just something to think about.
I clean my stove with method degreaser or dawn degreaser. If it needs a good scrub after that I use dawn dish soap and bar keepers friend with a scrub mommy or daddy and that does the trick.
My sister is a teacher and my nephew is non-verbal autistic. They use a digital camera photo on construction paper on every door. He points to what he wants. Juice jug photo on fridge. People love photos because of vision learning. I use shapes when drawing objects. Sharen
I’ve tried to search for one but do you have a video on your favorite vacuums/mops/etc for cleaning and reasons why u like them? Or ones that haven’t worked in the past? Thanks!
Mai, I use the Norwex cleaning paste or Campanelli’s cleaning paste (if you don’t do MLMs) on my stove. Much faster and easier. Both work equally as well. I’ve tested on everything. But just watching your video I can tell that what’s causing your problem is that you’re using too much of the pink stuff. Try using less and see if that helps first.
We have an Alexa. My kids love asking her to sing and tell jokes. But she will start talking out of nowhere when nobody said Alexa. Scares me every time, lol.
I'm obsessed with all of your videos sunshine gurl 🏵️... I wish that I could work at cleaning as fast as you do in your videos 😂... I so need help... Loving your videos 😍... Hugggs n love 💕 Suzette Thibault
I've never noticed it before, but I see that you have like a mesh netting around your banister where your kids play. Why is that? Is it just to prevent them from throwing toys downstairs? I found you because I just had twins in July and I enjoyed all your twin content. I love your videos. I love how real you keep it. 😁
I feel like my life revolves around battling the constant clutter on my dining table. Do you kids watch Paw Patrol? Brittany Vasseur gives her son paw patrol missions to clean up toys lol
My kids are grown now but when they were little, I never bought or gave a gift without also purchasing a bin to put the small pieces in. Lego had a bin, cars had a bin etc. We also used those rolling plastic carts a lot but it's a constant battle. In my opinion on the Pink stuff, you are just using way way too much. I'd say squirt a quarter size dollop on your sponge and then add tiny amounts if it's needed.
Hello, there! We’d love you to try our microdose coffee!💛 Let’s collab! For more information, I sent you an email. Thank you so much and looking forward to working with you💛

How can I get a little paint splatter off the stove?
About your stove... I only use like 10-20% of the pink stuff you are using, and it gets just as clean with way less residu. Hope this helps! 😘
Def will do that next time! I for sure used wayyy too much 😅😅
I love vacuum lines! So satisfying
IKEA has Lego storage boxes at the top has a building surface. Also taking the label off of the water bottle is free and makes it look better.
Your videos are so motivating. I love watching them. They remind me of places I need to clean that haven't been cleaned in a while
Another great video!! Your sense of humor makes you so fun to watch!! Thanks for the motivation!!
I truly enjoy your cleaning videos. I love how honest you are on cleaning products.

I hear you about the decor. 🙂🎃 I don't but a lot either. Your videos are always inspiring. 💗

Dollar tree has toilet bowl brushes so for a dollar you can change really often. Works great for me😁
For the stove I like regular soap and water to clean, vacuum for the crumbs and a pumice stone or fine grit sand paper for scorch marks. Lysol wipes degrease in a pinch too
You have a Cricut. Tear the label off the plastic water bottle and decorate it with a cute label. 🌺
Such a good idea!!
Yes, please show us the new mop! New to your channel, but really like your videos!
Your dining table looks mine! I don’t feel so alone, thank you for keeping it real! 💜

I was using a dining chair to work from home until recently too 😂 glad I wasn’t alone! Love your videos, Mai 💕

Saw a small lego storage containers on LTD Commodities It leaves them looking nicely new and displayed the way they want them to be
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!!!! Mai you are my favorite you tuber!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I clean my stovetop with the Dawn PowerWash and I love it
Enjoying watching your cleaning video. It's helping me feel motivated to get some things done.
Yay!! Go get some cleaning done! 🧽 🧼 💪🏻

If you close the brush between the seat and bowl then you can let the brush dry and avoid some of the rust.

For the stove I use a awesome degreaser from the dollar tree. I saw it on another clean video and it works great

We used kitty litter trays in a filing tiered shelf for lego. A different colour in each tray.

I would, however our table and bench would slide all over the place and scratch up our floors if we didn’t have that rug, so it’s an essential for us
Makes sense. I just hate that you have to constantly mess with that rug.
There are cleaning brushes for power drills. Amazing power of the drill & brushes make cleaning tubs, showers and grout easy
I wasn't into getting a Google/nest gadget either but I've been considering it lately.
I clean my stove with method degreaser or dawn degreaser. If it needs a good scrub after that I use dawn dish soap and bar keepers friend with a scrub mommy or daddy and that does the trick.
Method heavy degreaser is the best and easy cleanup.
Hahahha! Your husband was probably thinking “well happy birthday?”
I use the pink stuff spray.. way less residue than the paste in my opinion
My sister is a teacher and my nephew is non-verbal autistic. They use a digital camera photo on construction paper
on every door. He points to what he wants. Juice jug photo on fridge. People love photos because of vision learning.
I use shapes when drawing objects. Sharen
Love this video. I adore you. God bless.

I use scrub daddy/mommy paste and their sponge that comes with it. I then wipes off the residue with a rag and some cleaning spray
I LOVE the scrub daddy power paste so much!!
Can you take the label off the Costco water jug? That might help the look of it.
Looks great
I actually saw cute, moderately priced, plastic beverage containers at BigLots, possibility for your hubby's water jug :)
We have an Alexa. My kids love asking her to sing and tell jokes. But she will start talking out of nowhere when nobody said Alexa. Scares me every time, lol.
😂😂
Take the label off hubby's water jug ❤️

Can you make in the next time a after birthday (party) cleanup video with many Ballons and other thinks what is by a party to cleanup?
Siri and the government are always listening! 🤣
Have a lego bin
A scrub daddy will get most of the stuff off your stove and then you could just wipe that down and then use a spray cleaner to shine it up
My kids are grown now but when they were little, I never bought or gave a gift without also purchasing a bin to put the small pieces in. Lego had a bin, cars had a bin etc. We also used those rolling plastic carts a lot but it's a constant battle. In my opinion on the Pink stuff, you are just using way way too much.

💯💯💯
I use barkeepers friend. I think your issue is that your using too much product. A little goes a long way.
Haha I definitely did use way too much 😅😅
I swear by barkeeper's friend...
I’m always guilty of using too much product, which makes the whole process take 3x longer. 🤦🏻♀️
Hi I'm new to your channel
Hi! 👋
Early squad
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Stove Top Tip: Use way way less product.
💯💯💯
Look into Simple Human magnetic toilet brush.
Hello, there!
We’d love you to try our microdose coffee!💛 Let’s collab! For more information, I sent you an email.
Thank you so much and looking forward to working with you💛
Just use less of the Pink Stuff cleaner 👍😘
Definitely won’t splatter it all over next time!!!
You used wayyy too much pink stuff on the stove, use less so it doesnt take forever to remove
