Clean the hallway
The hallway gets crossed dozens of times a day but almost never registers as something to clean. Pausing in the middle of a habitual flow is the hard part, and the pictures below give the reminder that movement otherwise washes away.

About this visual support
Think about how many times the hallway gets crossed each day, heading out, in, to the bathroom, down to the basement. That is exactly why it rarely gets cleaned: it is a passage, not a place you stop in. Grit, leaves and dropped mittens collect while you move on, and breaking that flow to fetch the broom takes more than it sounds.
Visual support works here as an outside nudge. When a picture shows the hallway as its own small task, sweep up, gather in the dustpan, hang up what is lying around, the invisible spot suddenly becomes visible and has a start. The child does not have to realize on their own that it is time, because the picture says so.
One concrete tip: place the cleaning steps right where the movement already stops, at the shoe rack or the hooks. Tie the sweeping to something the child does there anyway, like taking off shoes, so the start-up is embedded in an existing habit rather than demanding a whole new stop.
In Routined you can link the hallway cleanup to a fixed time or place and let the child follow the pictures. You can try the app for fourteen days at no cost.
