Buy micro fiber socks or hand dust mitts. Spray lightly with water or water spiked with a tablespoon of vinegar (the best non-toxic antibacterial cleaning agent).

Blow up a volcano in the toilet

Children will fight for a turn to clean the toilet with vinegar and baking soda. Make a spray bottle of diluted vinegar (half water, half vinegar) and a sprinkle-can for baking soda. Drill holes in the lid of a plastic peanut butter jar or reuse another refillable container with holes in the top. Let them combine the two in the toilet.

Add a dash of both to the toilet and the fun starts.

Vinegar is low cost, environmentally friendly and eliminates 99 percent of bacteria. Baking soda makes things smell sweet and de-greases dishes and pots. Mixed together, they’re explosive – and fun.
