What chores can kids do by age?

Preschoolers (3–5) can tidy toys, feed pets, and put clothes in the hamper. Ages 6–8 can set the table, sort laundry, and take out recycling. Ages 9–12 can prep simple meals, vacuum, empty the dishwasher, and pull weeds independently. Teens can do laundry, meal planning, mow the lawn, and manage the garden.

Can a chore chart include pet care and yard work?

Yes — the best chore charts assign real household responsibilities, not just bedroom tidying. That includes pet care by animal (dog walking, litter scooping, fish tank cleaning) and yard/garden work (mowing, weeding, raking leaves, picking up sticks, harvesting a garden or greenhouse), matched to what's age-appropriate for each kid.

Quick answer

How do I make a chore chart for kids?

How your personalized kids chore chart bundle works

The most customizable chore chart system — built around your kids, your pets, and what you actually want done.

A peek at your output

Sample from the "How this chart works" section using default answers — your version reflects the details you enter.

How this chart works

Reward philosophy: Points → prize
Reset cadence: Weekly
Kids check off completed chores; parents sign off at end of day
Screen time: Fixed daily limit, not tied to chores
Allowance: not used — chores are unpaid household contributions

Who it's for

Canadian parents who want a chore system built around their actual kids, pets, and household — real yard and garden work included, not just "make your bed" — with a reward menu, allowance, and screen-time rules they define themselves.

How it helps

The most customizable chore chart system we make. Add each kid by name and age for an automatically age-appropriate chart, list your pets by type for dedicated care tasks (dog walks, litter box, fish tank, cage cleaning, and more), and pick exactly which chores matter to your family — including real yard and garden work like mowing, weeding, raking leaves, picking up sticks, and harvesting the garden or greenhouse, plus homework and reading routines. Write your own reward menu, set your own allowance amount and rules, and choose how screen time works in your house — fixed limit, earned through chores, or both. We generate a personalized PDF and .xlsx file (opens in Excel or Google Sheets) built entirely around what you told us.

Common questions

Pick age-appropriate chores, keep the weekly list short and visual, put it somewhere the kids see daily, and pair it with a simple reward or allowance system. The best chore charts are repeated weekly, easy to check off, and connected to clear responsibilities.
