Sometimes having a list of daily cleaning items that you want to get done is really helpful. Here is just one suggestion for how you can accomplish this. You can easily adapt it to fit however many rooms you have on your to do list. This doesn't mean that you can't get your roomies to help pitch in, either. Making sure everyone is involved is a great way of strengthening relationships and reinforcing good habits (especially in children) that will be valuable when they are adults!
