Here are some tips to make cleaning fun:

2. Make a game out of it-Involve your entire family, husbands and kids included. Assign a specific set of chores for everyone in the household and whoever finishes their tasks first get to be the House Queen or King. Don’t forget to hand out prizes as a motivation for the kids.
3. Think of it as a workout-Household chores require a lot of energy. So don’t fret about not being able to head out to the gym. Instead vent all your energy in cleaning activities and burn fat. At the end of the day don’t be surprised of the number of calories you have burnt by just cleaning the house.
