ChartKidWhich chore chart should you make?
The maker above does them all. These are the versions people ask for most, each with chores and a layout already set for that age or situation.
- Chore chart for kids — ages 5 to 10, the most popular chart on the site.
- Chore chart for toddlers — two or three simple jobs with big sticker spaces.
- Chore chart for teens — cleaner themes, real responsibilities, a Total column.
- Family chore chart — one page per person, same chores, shared fridge.
- Weekly and daily chore charts — if you already know the rhythm you want.
- Adults and roommates — the minimal theme, no stickers, no fuss.
What makes a chore chart work
Three things, in order of importance: it is short, it is somewhere everyone sees it, and someone looks at it with the child every day. A chart with fifteen chores on it is a wish list; a chart with five is a routine. Start small, and print a new one when the first set has become automatic.
Choosing the chores
Pick jobs the child can finish without you. "Tidy room" is too vague for a six-year-old; "books on the shelf, clothes in the basket" is a job with an end. If you're not sure what suits an age, the chores by age guide lists what most children can manage from two to sixteen.
Checkbox or sticker?
Under about seven, stickers win: placing one is a small reward in itself. Older children find a tick quicker and less babyish. Either way, let the child make the mark.
Rewards
Turn on the reward line and write something small and soon: a film choice, pancakes on Saturday, an extra story. The Total column lets you set a weekly goal in points if your family prefers numbers. Keep a few chores unpaid, the "because you live here" jobs, and reserve pocket money for extras.
Paper and printing
ChartKid picks US Letter or A4 from your location; switch it under Paper if you need the other. The PDF uses real text and your chosen artwork, so it prints sharply on any home printer. A plastic sleeve or a fridge magnet keeps it alive for the week.
