Me and my family have organized few family planning with very good results. They are usually one or two weeks, but we have also tried half-day that’s works very well to activate the children to clean the house and get the prize quickly. 🙂
One Friday night we decided to clean the house together and get pizza and icecream for awards afterwards. I had never cleaned the house so quickly before. 🙂 It was done within 60 minutes for around 200 square meters. We are five in the family, but my oldest (19 years) one was not home so we were 4 that participated. And this went incredibly well. They felt great to get the prize immediately and everyone was happy to go into the weekend in a clean house 🙂
I will definitely do this again with them 🙂
Love the idea of a small focused setup for just the cleanup of the house…I’ll have to try that out =) And really fun to see the whole family since I haven’t met them =)
