The school year is upon us and here are some great classroom cleaning hacks and home school cleaning hacks and even just great tips and tricks for all those items that we have grown very accustom to.  Here are some great hacks for all those items:

Dry-Erase Marker Method For Your “Permanent” Mistake
If you’ve accidentally reached for the permanent marker to use on your whiteboard, there’s no need to panic. You can quickly fix the issue by using a dry-erase marker to trace over the stains. After that, simply wipe the board clean, and your whiteboard will look as good as new again.

Glitter Cleaning: Lint Rollers and Masking Tape as Allies
Glitter is a commonly used art supply for various arts and crafts activities. However, it’s also one of the messiest materials and can be extremely difficult to clean up. If you are having trouble cleaning up glitter, consider using a lint roller or masking tape. These two methods effectively remove even the most stubborn glitter-related messes.

Battle Whiteboard Discoloring and Stains with Ease
If your whiteboard is showing signs of wear and tear, there are a few different methods you can try to preserve its condition. You can use Mr. Clean Magic Erasers or a light mist of Febreze to clean and freshen up your whiteboard. For a more budget-friendly choice, a swipe of 91% rubbing alcohol can also do the trick. Additionally, to help keep your whiteboard looking new for longer, consider trading in your traditional whiteboard eraser for a microfiber cloth.

Lemon Fresh Trash Cans
For a fresh-smelling trash can, consider adding a cotton ball infused with lemon essential oil. This is a handy trick to help eliminate odors and leave a delightful fragrance, ensuring the environment is more inviting for teachers and students alike.

Restore Crystal-Clarity to iPad Screens With Microfiber Cloths or Felt Pieces
To ensure an uninterrupted and optimal learning experience, it’s essential to keep your iPad screen clean and free from smudges. One effective way to do this is by using microfiber cloths. For a cost-friendlier alternative, you can also provide students with small felt pieces, which work just as well. Preserving the longevity and appeal of your devices safeguards your investment while keeping students engaged in their learning experience.

Shaving Cream or Hand Sanitizer for Desk Detailing
For stubborn ink markings and desk dirt, consider using shaving cream to clean desks in your classroom. This foam-based product is essentially a concentrated form of soap, making it an effective cleaner that cleans up the desk and keeps it fresh. Hand sanitizer works great, too, while giving you a cleaner, more hygienic workspace. As an added bonus, students will be able to enjoy a fresh scent on their desks all day.

Tape Residue Removal with a Hair Dryer or Goo Gone
Use a hair dryer or Goo Gone to remove wall tape residue. Apply heat with the hair dryer to loosen the residue, or use Goo Gone, a product designed for removing sticky residue. These methods keep your walls clean without damage, helping you achieve a smooth and clean wall to display art or educational materials.

Ant-Free Classrooms/homes with Baking Soda
Use baking soda to keep ants and other insects at bay. Sprinkle it in areas where ants are likely to enter, and you’ll have a safe and effective solution for pest control. Since baking soda is also a natural and non-toxic substance, you won’t have to worry about harmful side effects.

Toothpaste Power: Erasing Crayon Art from Walls
Finally, you can use toothpaste to gently remove any crayon drawings from walls, causing minimal damage to the wall’s surface. This will also relay the message to students that having respect for and taking responsibility in communal spaces is a necessity.
