Lesson Overview

10.7 – Keeping Your Space Clean and Sanitary: Cleanliness isn’t about perfection—it’s about preventing problems before they start. Dirt and clutter invite pests, accidents, and illnesses that quietly chip away at independence. Building a cleaning routine means setting small, repeatable goals: wiping counters, doing dishes, emptying trash, and washing linens. Sanitizing high-touch surfaces like handles and remotes reduces germs and keeps your body resilient. A tidy home also strengthens your mind by lowering visual stress and promoting calm focus. Organization helps you find essentials fast during emergencies. Cleaning products themselves must be stored safely, away from food or medication, to prevent harm. Even ten minutes a day of upkeep makes a difference in long-term safety. When cleanliness becomes habit, health follows naturally. A sanitary environment builds confidence that your home supports—not hinders—your independence, creating a peaceful foundation where growth and safety live side by side.
