Viral Parenting Hack: Mother Reveals Ingenious 5-Minute Challenge to Get Kids to Tidy Their Rooms
A mother of three has garnered significant attention online for her innovative approach to a common household challenge: getting children to tidy their rooms. Known as 'ContraryMaryMum' on social media, the parent, who is also a teacher, shared a '5-minute tidy-up challenge' that she claims 'works every time.' The method involves setting a five-minute timer and offering five mystery prizes. Each prize is secretly linked to a specific item in the room. Children are tasked with tidying as much as possible within the time limit, without knowing which item corresponds to which reward. This element of surprise and competition reportedly motivates them to clean efficiently. The video, which has quickly gone viral, shows the children's bedroom in a state of disarray before the challenge, and remarkably tidier after just five minutes. The prizes offered included small sweets, a 'no chores' voucher, and an hour of remote control access, described by the mother as 'gold dust' in her household. The hack has resonated with many parents, with one commenter stating, 'I used this this morning and it worked, thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️' Another added, 'I'm going to try this with my boys. This is genius.' While some recalled stricter methods from their own childhoods, like the 'black bin bags' threat, the positive and gamified approach presented in the video offers a fresh perspective on encouraging children's participation in household chores.
