Well, I straightened up the front entryway (still
needs mopping) and living room is as good as it gets.
It is dusted, vaccuumed, all toys and clothes gone.
Also made lunch (pancakes since the kids were
reasonably well behaved this morning).

Yes, I should have done this, as I have been
constantly shooing the children out of the recently
cleaned living room, but hindsight is 50/50. I need to
tidy up lunch dishes and put away clean laundry load.
Then I will iron dh's work shirts as baby is napping
and I don't iron when she's up. After that I will
progress to the playroom, before cleaning up the
kitchen in detail. Also washed kitchen floor this
morning, just quickly, but I can't seem to get
anywhere if it is really dirty. (Maybe the kitchen
floor is my flylady sink...)

Mostly did that. Since I am going to clean the
playroom (thanks to your suggestion) before completing
the kitchen, the rest will get down there as homes are
created for these items.

Do you have any tips on getting children, ages 3 and 6
to help tidy up, with less whining, crying, etc?
