This is what we do to.

Dh does most of the bathroom cleaning here. I will do spot cleaning in there when the kids are distracted.

Spray bottles with plain water, rags, child size mop, bucket (with a tiny bit) of water, child size broom. Keeps them engaged, busy, and feeling like they are genuinely helpful... and you can get stuff done too.

Also, even the smallest child can be taught to fold handtowels/washcloths/cloth diapers - my 22 month old will do this with his sister, and it keeps them super busy, and generally on the same task as I am (cleaning).

Great ideas here and a comfort to know that I'm not the only one that struggles to have a clean house
