Kids and Cleaning Up - Black & Decker, India

At this time of the year, though it’s great fun to have the kids around the home, it makes for a lot of extra cleaning up for you too. The thing to remember though is that even young kids can help you out around the house, if only you give them that responsibility. Here are some ways you can try out:

Cleaning the yard: This might have meant using a broom or a rake in earlier times, but with appliances like the Black & Decker Blower, this can be fun for the kids too. All you need to ensure is that they are supervised at all times, as children should never be left on their own with power tools. You can even use the blower function of your vacuum cleaner for the same.

Washing the car: Even a few years back, kids would have moaned and groaned about this activity, but with the help of one of our pressure washers the kids are sure to enjoy the task. It uses the focused pressure of water and has a control to limit wastage too. If you can use harvested rainwater for the task that would be great too.

Floor cleaning: Kids may not be able to help you in areas where they have to maneuver too much, but in rooms like the living room where there is a lot of clear space to be cleaned up, they can feel really proud to help out. They can use the Steam Mop, or any of the vacuum cleaners such as the Wet and Dry one for this task.

Garden Care: Children love to work in the garden, so they can help you out with a bit of de-weeding from time to time. If you have a lawn space, they can also try out our electric lawn mover for a quick trim from time to time.

As you can see, there are a ton of activities that the kids can help you out with, during the holidays. A good way to go about it is to plan one chore along with other fun activities every day. Do check out our website for details on our appliances:

Introducing some lesser known tools - Black & Decker

Other than the usual set of tools and appliances that are usually quite well known, such as the vacuum or the drill kit, there are also a few less known ones that we do not hear of too much. You would be surprised once you hear of them, as they can be very useful for tasks around the house. Here’s a short look at some of them:

Pressure Washer: When it comes to cleaning your car or your garden area, nothing can beat the pressure washer. If you are concerned about the loss of water, it can actually conserve water compared to using a hose, as the mechanism allows you to control and spray only what is necessary. The force of the water also makes the cleaning more efficient so you will need less water in that way too. Black & Decker brings you a range of pressure washers, and you can choose the one that would suit your requirement.

Paint Roller: Try one of these to paint your wall the next time you need a repaint and you will never call any painters home again. The innovative RapidRoller from Black & Decker is even more efficient than using a standard roller with tray, as the paint is stored directly in the device and makes the entire process less messy and quicker.

Blower: A blower comes with different settings for different tasks, which makes it very versatile. It can be used for cleaning delicate devices like computer CPUs and also for clearing dry leaves from your garden. The B & D blower comes with a vacuum attachment too.

Car Polisher: If you thought that the car service centre was the only place you could go to for a polishing job, you will be pleasantly surprized to try the car polisher and see how easy it makes your job. It can be used to polish the car as well as other metal or painted surfaces with great results.

I hope this short introduction of the above tools was interesting enough to make you want to go and check them out at our stores. Please do see our website for more details of these products, as well as for a map with our store locations in India.
