1. Dance While You Dust

Put on your favourite playlist and turn your cleaning into a dance party. Not only will you have fun, but you’ll also burn some extra calories while you’re dusting and wiping down surfaces! 

2. Sock Mop for the Win

Slip a pair of fluffy socks on your feet and slide across your hardwood or tile floors. Your feet will act as mops, making cleaning the floor fun and easy—plus, you get to glide around like you’re on a skating rink!

3. Shaving Cream = Mirror Magic

Tired of foggy mirrors after a hot shower? Spread a little shaving cream on the mirror and wipe it clean—it prevents fogging and smells fresh!

4. Battle Your "Dust Bunnies"

Arm yourself with a lint roller or microfiber duster and go on a mission to hunt down "dust bunnies" in corners, under furniture, and along baseboards. Turn it into a game with kids or roommates!

5. Microwave Your Sponge

Kill bacteria and extend the life of your kitchen sponge by microwaving it for 1-2 minutes. Just make sure it’s wet before you zap it—this trick keeps your sponge fresh and ready for more scrubbing.

6. Squeegee Your Carpet

Got pet hair? Use a window squeegee to pull hair out of your carpets or rugs. It’s oddly satisfying to see how much hair the squeegee collects, and it works better than vacuuming!

7. Lemonize Your Trash

Toss some lemon peels into your trash can or garbage disposal to fight off odours. Every time you open the lid, you’ll get a fresh citrus scent instead of a stinky surprise!

8. Toothpaste for Sparkling Shoes

Use a dab of toothpaste to clean scuff marks off your sneakers or white leather shoes. You’ll feel like a shoe-cleaning superhero with your bright and shiny kicks.

9. Tame the Remote Control Gremlins

Remotes, game controllers, and other gadgets are often overlooked. Use a cotton swab and rubbing alcohol to clean in between the buttons—those gremlins don’t stand a chance!

10. The Vacuum Race

Set a timer and challenge yourself (or the family) to see how fast you can vacuum a room or section of the house. Reward the fastest cleaner with a treat, or just enjoy the rush of a job well done
