What are we tidying?
Finishing a timer adds a tally here — pick the same one next time to keep the streak going.
Tip for standard cleanups
Works well for one room or one visible area. Work alongside the child.

- 01
Pick one target
Toys into a basket, books onto a shelf. Concrete targets get done; vague requests don't.
- 02
Work alongside them
Show the first action and clean together. The timer marks the period, not a race.
- 03
Stop when it ends
If you promise five minutes, stop after five. This builds trust in the timer.
- 04
Name the win
Even if the room isn't perfect, finishing the timer is the win. Say so.
