The Game of Spring Cleaning

Turn spring cleaning into a competition with roommates or family members! Roll dice to see what room each of you will clean and set goals/rules on how to win the contest. Maybe it is who can clean a room the fastest, or who can throw away or donate the most items, or possibly who can get the windows and mirrors to shine streak-free.

Pat Yourself on the Back
