Chart for Kids: Chores List

A simple way to keep track of tasks that children are assigned at home or at school is to use the Chart for Kids: Chores List. The design is one that is straightforward and doesn't have a lot of characters or colors, making it easy to customize with everything from stickers to drawings that children want to do on their own. Columns are shown on the chart that designate the child's name, the chores that are assigned for each child, and the days of the week with defined columns for the days so that marks can easily be added when the chores are completed. Some of the chores that can be listed on the chart include helping with laundry, washing dishes, taking out the trash, or cleaning the child's bedroom. If the chart is used in the classroom, then chores could include handing out assignments to all of the students, collecting paperwork from students when they are finished with assignments, cleaning the board, and holding the door open. The chores can be changed each week so that each child has something new to do instead of completing the same tasks every day, often giving children an incentive to work harder to earn more marks.
