Pro Tip: Tell the kids they can have an ice cream in the backyard, and play for a little while and when they’re done they can come inside and help clean the house. Send them out. Everytime they pop their heads back inside you say “Oh, you’re ready to clean the house now?” and poof…they’re gone again to play in the backyard! lol. Half joking. But try it 😉
