How to use a chore chart
- List the chores that come up every week, one per row. Put the person's name in the row too so there's no arguing about whose job it is.
- Keep it short: three to five chores per child is plenty, and age-appropriate jobs get done more often than ambitious ones.
- Print one chart per week and tick each box when the chore is done. A fresh sheet every Monday is a natural moment to rotate jobs.
- If you pay pocket money or give rewards, count the ticks on Sunday and write the total in the last column.
Make yours in the calendar builder
For chores that happen on set dates rather than every day, like taking the bins out on Tuesdays or a monthly room deep-clean, use the builder: add each one as an event in a color per person. Events show as colored dots on the calendar and the PDF, so add a note on the 1st with the color key ("blue = Sam").

What chores are right for a 6-year-old?
Jobs that take a few minutes and have a clear finish: making the bed, putting toys away, feeding a pet, setting the table and putting dirty clothes in the hamper. Older kids can take on dishes, vacuuming and taking out the trash.
Should a chore chart be weekly or monthly?
Weekly works best for daily chores, because a fresh chart each week keeps it tidy and lets you rotate jobs. Monthly calendars suit chores that only happen on certain dates.
Can I save my chore chart?
The chart is not stored anywhere. Print it once you have typed your chores, or keep this tab open; if you reload the page, the example chores come back.
