Hey Moms…Did You Know It’s “National Clean Up Your Room Day”?

Every May 10th is the annual celebration of every mother’s (and father’s) dream…National Clean Up Your Room Day. While your children may come to dread this date on the calendar, it is a great gift for Mother’s Day…especially this year, when most of us are still stuck at home.

As one expert said, however, the day “isn’t aimed only at kids. It is about picking up, straightening up and cleaning up. Serious spring cleaning takes place and homes get aired out. Organize, de-clutter, and rearrange. Fix the broken. Find missing parts and put like with like. Clean out a cluttered closet and donate or throw away those things you are not using. Help your children make their beds, clean their rooms, and eliminate the toys and clothing they have outgrown.”

It's a great day for airing out and emptying out and the perfect day to strip the beds and send the heavier linens out for an intense spring cleaning. As that same expert said, to observe National Clean Up Your Room Day, you can spend time “getting your home looking and feeling clean and fresh for summer,” including making the switch from winter curtains and drapes to summery curtains. Swap out the heavier bedding and comforters for lighter ones, and bring it all in to Oak Hill Dry Cleaners for a deep clean.
