You mentioned thinking of things you're grateful for while doing dishes... one thing that never ceases to bring me great joy is CLEAN RUNNING WATER! If I ever feel like I don't want to clean the kitchen I just imagine all my ancestors carrying water in buckets from wherever they had to get it in whatever state of cleanliness they found it in and boiling it over a fire that they had to collect wood for etc etc. Just focusing on the insane ease of rinsing off a dish and placing it in the dishwasher truly makes me grateful every time.
Wow, great comment!
I’ve found a “no shoes rule” to really help keep the floors, carpet clean. My whole family automatically take shoes off at the door!
Great ideas, great video!😁👍🏼
Attitude makes a huge difference I think. Although sometime I have to summons the energy, the kids aren’t always going to be at home and I’m sure one day I’ll miss all their little things (and messes)
I implemented a ‘1 thing per day’ weekly schedule for myself when my second (now 2.5) was a baby and it’s stuck ever since and relieves me of having to think about what to get done. So Mondays are laundry, Tuesdays are watering plants, Wednesdays are mopping or bathrooms, etc. Cheers!
I love that the kids help with everything, and home schooling makes that possible. I didn’t even know how to make an egg when I was 18 and moved into my apartment. I had no idea. But I had to get up at 6am for school, which was a 45 bus ride minute away and then only got home at 17:15pm after sports and another 45 min bus ride, and had so much homework that I never helped with dinner, or with laundry or with school lunches. Got home from school, did homework, then ate dinner, then had a shower and then last bit of homework before bed. High school was insane. Way too much homework. My mum did it all. And now I realise that it’s actually because I was unavailable for the whole day. Turned 18 and moved out, and didn’t know what to do with a spatula let alone a washing machine 🤣 oh well, learned fast. But that’s a huge plus for home schoolers. So lovely your kids are learning early on 😊
Ya isn’t that the truth??
Loved the video! Having a cleaning and laundry schedule helps SO much! I know exactly what needs to be done each day. And if a day gets skipped, like if we’re sick or away from the house that day, I know exactly where to focus my energy. I also build in “no cleaning” or “no laundry” days to catch up, use that time in another way, or clean/launder something I don’t do every week (such as vacuuming my car or washing our dogs’ bedding). A schedule saves my sanity 😬
I literally clean all day every day (I’ve been cleaning 3 hours so far today) and my toddler will TRASH a room while I’m cleaning the other one. I don’t even know how to keep up
My advice(i have a 4yo and a 22mo) quantine them in a "toy Room" that they can trash. Meanwhile you organize(not clean) other rooms. Hire a cleaning lady to do the exhausting actual cleaning job. I do this trick and it keep the house maintained. My home is 2,700 sqft, 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath. Kinda big.
i’ve always liked ur channel but as a mom of a 4,2, and 1 year old that intends on homeschooling and trying to raise my kids with similar values that u talk about i’m soooooo thankful for u ❤️ ur videos are 🔥
So happy to hear that!
What I do to help me keep a clean house is by doing exactly what I am doing now watching TH-cam videos on mom hacks how to keep a clean house. I not only learn some much much much needed awesome hacks but it also motivates me because I'm such a mom I get all excited when I find little hacks
Awesome video.... Especially #10....your kids will greatly benefit in the long run by the positive mindset about cleaning that you are instilling in them now. It's excellent that you let your kids get involved with cleaning and chores at such a young age. You're exactly right....kids want to mimic what adults are doing so they can feel grownup and responsible.
I love your view out your kitchen window.
The deck you’re putting in with that view will be incredible.
Yes cannot wait for the deck!
Towards your comment of the towels, Mico cloth towels also sponges
Talking about picking up toys, I hadn’t really thought about this before, but when I was little I didn’t really play with toys outside of my bedroom. This wasn’t a house rule, I just mostly preferred playing in my room, same with my friends. I didn’t know anyone with a “playroom”, we played in our bedrooms, outside or occasionally in a basement. I would occasionally bring a doll or stuffed animal out into the living/family room, but never a bunch of toys. This was in the 80s, so maybe it’s just a different time or kids have more toys nowadays, I don’t know. It’s funny how I hadn’t really thought about it until today. I just know we didn’t have a lot of toys strewn throughout the house. I mean, my bedroom was a total mess though. 😆
I love this comment!
Love this. Thank you!!
I’ve always loved your videos, but feel like I can relate to you so much in this season of life! My daughter is 5 and my son is 2. While I’m not home schooling, my daughter does a part time preschool program and we do a lot of activities and learning at home so I find your videos super relatable and helpful 😀
I needed this video!! Thank you!! I’ve also really been enjoying the devotionals you’ve shared.
This was a fantastic video Kendra......perfect ideas and great motivator both, and I will order those Papaya clothes......you're an amazing Mamma, doing great things!!!
Great tips, thank you!
Great tips, I enjoyed listening! I have a preschooler and mobile baby and have been getting overwhelmed by all the stuff that gets moved around/left all over the ground. I think the 1 in 1 out rule is a great one that I can start too!
Yes it totally helps!!
Wonderful video - thanks! Diana
Oh bless you for this video 🙌😍
So helpful! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Okay. You’re the 🐐. Ty. 😊
Random question, but do you dry your dishes in the dishwasher or put them away wet? We have a shelf dedicated to drying dishes, but it just makes things harder bc we have to basically move them twice. Watching made me think Mayne we could just put them away a little damp, bc we use them so frequently. I'm not sure they'd have time to mold or anything in the cabinet. Any suggestions?
Just what I needed this morning--- thank you!
So glad!
I am surprised you don’t use norwex. I have used them for five years and haven’t strayed. I also just get a bunch of cloth napkins from antique stores and that has been helpful. Those are cute. I have some similar from grove too that are almost like a foam. It’s interesting haha. Thanks for sharing your tips!!
Oh my God, I missed your mommy videos sooo much!! 😍 About to start a binge watch marathon, lol.
Love your classic parenting style, Kendra. Kiddos grew up way too fast, what happened? Lol 😭 nooo Ugh,💔
aw thank you so much!
I loved the video Kendra! In Greece we use reusable paper towels like these for decades and it seems so strange to me that they are not common sense in the US. We use them to wipe up literally everything.
Ya it makes so much sense!
Where did you get those 2 distressed vases in your TV room? So cute!!
A local home shop!
thank you so much for all the jewels i will definitely apply them to my mommy schedule thanks a billion
Laundry tip: fold the laundry right out of the dryer. Avoids wrinkles and makes it easier to put away.
That's what I do also. Works great.🙂
Yes just need to actually do that!!!
Look to buy something doesn't mean to get rid of something you only get rid of stuff that you do not use anymore or you don't like anymore
