How to Make A Cleaning Checklist
SUPPLIES –
- Cleaning Cards – The first thing one needs to get properly motivated is a colorful + darling checklist. (Because cute makes everything more fun, right?) And let’s not forget to mention the deep satisfaction of checking things off a list. We’ve created these Printable Cleaning Checklist Cards with those two facts in mind. (download below)
- Scissors
- Laminator – Not mandatory, but helpful to make the cards last longer
- Hole Punch
- Metal Ring
- Caddy – Cleaning caddy or bucket of sorts, with a handle or holes in it.
- Dry Erase Marker
- Cleaning Supplies
DIRECTIONS –
- First, download and print our Cleaning Checklist Cards. Fill in any additional chores, or use the blank cards to create any other rooms or areas you have in your home.
- Cut out and laminate.
- Punch a hole in the top corner, and thread onto your clip.
- Clip onto caddy or bucket, fill with your cleaning supplies, and you’re ready to go!
This says you can download for free, but when you click the link you have to buy it.

Do you have an editable version of this?
Unfortunately, I don’t. Sorry about that!

You’re too sweet…thank you!
I cannot figure out how to print these?!
As soon as you enter your email address and click “submit”, the screen will automatically load the printable PDF file. On my computer, I have to scroll over the top right and a download button appears, but I’ve also seen the button on the bottom center on our family computer. Roll your mouse over the printable a few times and see if any download arrow or button appear – and if you run into more issues, feel free to email me – steph@somewhatsimple.com.
Thanks! I now use these all the time!
You bet!
Love these cards!! Make is so easy to remind the kids
Thanks! I’m so glad they were helpful!
Love this idea. Can’t get it to print though. If I put in my email again will I be put on your mailing list again?
It won’t add you to the mailing list more than once. I can email you the file, if that is easier? Let me know what you prefer!
I would love it if you could email me them directly, thank you! My email is Salonkae@gmail.com
I just sent it! Enjoy! 🙂
Hi there! I’m having trouble downloading any of your printables. Do I have to download an extension to access them? I subscribed to your email list but I’m not sure what to do.
When you put in your email address a new page should have opened showing the file so you could download it right away.
Thanks for these checklists, they’re fantastic!
Thanks Cami! So glad you liked them.
