FOR ALL AGES
At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.
It is unknown where Clean Your Floors Day initially started. It is implied from a few sources that it may have begun in the United States, although this is not a certainty.
Clean Your Floors Day is just an initiative to polish or clean floors of different kinds. It can be celebrated by anyone, just consider the age and the types of products used to clean the dirty flooring.
It is unknown when this day was initially started but it is celebrated annually on August 3.
Holloway House/Quick Shine is being credited to have founded the day but there is uncertainty in this.
Now that you know all about why Clean Your Floors Day started, learn some more about its history here!
There is no specific way to celebrate this day. In general, just use cleaning products to deep clean the hardwood floor or any tile floor type using a mop head or scrub to remove the dust.
Remind others how essential it is to clean the flooring, free of grime and dust.
You can share the picture with your close ones on a social media platform.
Sweep, mop, or vacuum the home floor and the surrounding backyard using a broom or vacuum cleaner, depending on the type of flooring in the region.
Clean Your Floors Day is an indirect reminder for people to annually deep clean their floor, apart from the daily cleaning, using a mop head or vacuum to remove the grime, making them cleaner.
Sweeping and mopping the floor should be done at least once a week. Over time, a hardwood floor will need to be polished.
Clean Your Floors Day is also known as National Clean Your Floors Day. Many times, Clean Your Floors Day is confused with National Clean Your Room Day. The two major distinctions are in the cleaning of dirt from rooms, which is observed on May 10, and the cleaning of floors, which is observed on August 3.
It is advisable to clean the tile or vinyl tile floor, or any other form of flooring, using cold water to retain its shine.
Although Holloway House/Quick Shine is credited with initiating the celebration, there is no concrete evidence to support this claim.
