Every parent is familiar with the situation—camps and activities are over, most of the kids are at home, and with them come mess and dirt. Snack crumbs on the couch, spilled chocolate milk on the floor, and glitter from art projects scattered in hidden corners of the house. Kids need to be kids, but how can you still maintain order and cleanliness during the hectic end of August? Don’t despair—here are some tips to show you that it’s possible.
At the end of the day, it all comes down to how much time you can dedicate to cleaning the house. Whether you’re an early riser who cleans before the kids wake up, or you wait until they’re asleep so they don’t leave footprints right after you’ve finished mopping, the most important tip is to maximize your time. Instead of vacuuming the floor, then mopping, why not save yourself time and energy?
Meet the Shark HYDRO VAC WD213 vacuum cleaner, a leading vacuum brand by Shark Ninja, exclusively distributed in Israel by Sharig, the official importer. This vacuum performs three functions in one device: vacuuming, thoroughly washing all types of surfaces—floors, marble, parquet, and carpets—and self-cleaning. Thanks to a charging base with an advanced cleaning system, the vacuum will charge and clean itself after use. The cleaning brush and the device’s internal cleaning system will be thoroughly washed in just two minutes, ready for the next use, and will leave the cleaning area dry exceptionally quickly.
The Shark WD213 vacuum comes with an antimicrobial brush to prevent bad odors and bacteria, two containers—a 500 ml XL cleaning tank and a 360 ml dirty water tank—for maximum convenience and efficiency.
The vacuum includes a cleaning fluid with ANTI ODOUR technology to remove unpleasant smells and refresh all surfaces, keeping your home clean with a fresh scent. You can also use any other cleaning fluid suitable for vacuums and the surface type: floor, parquet, or carpet.
Additionally, the new vacuum features a smart digital display to monitor battery status, control suction power, and select the type of surface—floor or carpet. With Shark’s new vacuum, you can easily and efficiently clean all types of dirt—stains, liquids, debris, and accumulated grime. The vacuum is equipped with LED lights to illuminate the intended cleaning area.
It is available at selected electrical stores, authorized dealers, and the importer’s website.
Additional Tips:It’s highly recommended to dedicate a few minutes each day to general tidying up, organizing the kitchen and bathrooms, making the beds, and vacuuming and washing the floors. With this tip, you can keep your home clean and organized with minimal effort, preventing tasks from piling up and dirt from accumulating.
Involve your kids in household chores. Assign each child an age-appropriate task, and it’s a good idea to ask them which chore they prefer. Whether they choose to help fold laundry or arrange dishes in the dishwasher, involving children in the household routine fosters responsibility, independence, and appreciation for household management.
One of the biggest obstacles to cleanliness is clutter. Many parents face the challenge of children unwilling to part with toys they no longer play with. Sit down with your kids and explain that they can donate their items to bring joy to other children. You might even be able to “upcycle” some items, turning them into something entirely new. This can be an opportunity for a shared activity and quality time with your children, with added social and environmental value.
