It’s like May 10th which is National Clean Up Your Room Day #CleanUpYourRoomDay a Holiday made especially for my family. We’ve been going through one storage and we’ve had to bring everything home until we can get the other storage cleaned and straightened up. All I can say about my Town Home at the moment and my back porch and David’s room is holy Cow you might want to call Hoarders on us.
Please PRAY that were able to get house organized and at least clean enough for my sister to be able to come over on Mother’s Day so she doesn’t have to spend the day by herself because her kids have plans with her daughter in law’s family. In the meantime I hope you have a blessed week and come join me and let’s get our rooms cleaned as soon as possible.
With the exception of people who are born organized neat freaks, we can all admit our rooms can get chaotic from time to time. To the delight of parents and more polished family and friends, May 10 is National Clean Your Room Day. I would like to let you know that research into the holiday doesn’t reveal who founded Clean Your Room Day. For those of us who may need it or have family, friends, and roommates who do, it’s nice to have a holiday that reminds us to get our act together starting with our rooms!
NATIONAL CLEAN YOUR ROOM DAY ACTIVITIES
- Children and teenagers are usually the culprits of messy rooms, but some kids have messy parents. Even if they aren’t messy, it’s fun watching parents complain about doing chores too. You can even help your parents decide which old items of theirs they should throw out or donate!
- If you think about cleaning as a boring chore, then make a plan for how you could redecorate your room as you clean it. Maybe you could rearrange furniture, add plants, or posters, or you could decide if there’s a theme you’d like for your room. You can give yourself an incentive to keep your room clean for long after May 10th.
- Once you’re finished cleaning, go out and celebrate your clean room and because it’s hard for some of us to stay organized and on top of cleanliness, so choose something you’ll use to treat yourself once you’re done. Like going to a nice restaurant, or purchasing yourself something nice, or getting a new accessory that can shine in your clean space.
WHY WE LOVE NATIONAL CLEAN YOUR ROOM DAY
- Did you know cleaning your room can make you feel more relaxed and having a day to clean our room lets us put things in a particular place, organize, and can help us feel more relaxed because you’ll know where everything is. Did you know research actually shows that making your bed every morning can make it easier to keep up with other positive habits.
- People often complain about not having enough but by giving our room a deep-clean on a designated day, you can dig up old clothes, shoes, toys, or gadgets you no longer use which can be given away as gifts, donated to shelters, or given to friends who may use them so they won’t take up space or go to waste.
Thank yuou,
