Track this chart in KidKarma
Paper charts get lost behind the fridge magnets. In KidKarma, kids tick off chores on their own device, points add up automatically, and they spend them on the rewards you set. 14-day free trial.
How to make a chore chart in 3 steps
- Pick the basics. Choose a daily tracker or a weekly checklist, how you reward chores (points, money, stars or screen time) and your household.
- Add each child. Enter their age and the maker suggests chores that suit it. Shuffle for new ideas, rename chores or add your own.
- Print it. Each child gets their own page. Put it on the fridge and tick boxes as chores get done.
How many chores by age
| Age | Daily | Weekly | Example chores |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2–3 | 3 | 1 | Put toys away, clothes in the hamper, carry plate to the counter |
| 4–5 | 4 | 2 | Make bed, set the table, feed the pet, sort laundry |
| 6–8 | 4 | 3 | Tidy room, unload the dishwasher, sweep, vacuum my room |
| 9–12 | 5 | 3 | Load the dishwasher, pack lunch, clean the bathroom sink, take out trash |
| 13–17 | 5 | 3 | Own laundry, cook a family meal, clean the bathroom, mow the lawn |
For every age on one page, see the complete age-appropriate chores chart, or pick an exact age: 3 year olds, 5 year olds, 9 year olds, 11 year olds, 13 year olds.
Make the chart stick
- Start small. A few chores done every day build the habit faster than a long list.
- Agree on the reward up front.Write the goal at the bottom of the chart so kids can see what they're working toward.
- Check in weekly. Five minutes on Sunday to add up points and swap chores keeps it fresh.
- Keep it fair between siblings. Same values for the same jobs, and rotate the least-liked ones. More in our guide to fair chores for multiple kids.
