The House FairyTHE HOUSE FAIRY!
If you have not heard of this lovely lady, she is the neatest invention since air conditioning! She visits your child's room once a week to inspect the room's cleanliness. If she likes what she sees, she leaves a small gift, if she doesn't, she just leaves fairy dust. She also generally leaves a note of some kind for the kids to enjoy. You never know when she will visit, so you ALWAYS have to be ready. My girls LOVE HER. She is a friend of The Flylady. You can find ALL about her HERE.
Here is what happened when she visited us this evening:
The girls were out shopping with their grandparents, so I think that The House Fairy seized the opportunity to check out their room.
Their eyes lit up when they realized that she had been in their room!
We saw evidence (fairy dust) of her entry at the window. This confirmed for us that The House Fairy DOES indeed have wings.
She must love tea, because she had a cup and then washed her own dishes...
She left a picture of herself for the girls, with a message for them...
The girls had a clean room, so they received a gift from her!
I have to say, I am just as excited as these two little girls! I got to enjoy their clean room, and I didn't remind them even ONCE this week to clean it!
If I could only get the boys on board...

Good job to H and S!! I like your changes here. mom
Way to go H and S!! Good job! B, like the changes here, also loved the pics (saved them) mom
CUTE idea -- I LOVE it!! I might do it, however, I'd have to use the basement because my boys don't play in their rooms, so they stay clean! How fun! Maybe your boys need a "house superhero" in order to get excited? LOL!! :)))
What a CUTE idea, especially for little ones!
Ha that's such a cool idea. So glad we don't get visits from the house fairy LOL
Love it!! In my experience with four boys and three girls...it will be a miracle to get the boys on board LOL! Unless you up the gift selection a bit :-). Hopefully your boys will be more motivated then mine are! I do think I will try the idea in my desperation to have my children keep their rooms clean! I agree with the other lady too...I am glad there is not a house fairy who looks at the rest of the house, I fear I would get a lump of coal some weeks!
how fun!
