Make Children's Game Out of Party Cleanup

If you attend or host a fairly large party that leaves lots to cleanup, try asking the children to get involved. Give each of them a trash bag (you choose the size), and offer a prize to the child who fills up their bag first. Just be sure they're fully aware of what is trash and what isn't. They'll scramble fast to win the prize. You could have something prepared as the prize or just offer $5.00. It gets a lot of work done for you at a minimal price!
