In this brief parenting tip video, the speaker shares three practical strategies to encourage children to clean up after play. The first strategy is to set a clear expectation before play begins by asking the child what needs to happen when they finish the activity. The second strategy breaks the cleanup task into smaller, manageable choices, such as deciding whether to put away blue or red Lego blocks first, giving the child a sense of control. The third strategy makes tidying enjoyable by playing music and praising any small steps the child takes toward cleaning, turning the task into a positive experience.
