Printable Chore Chart for Kids

Motivating kids to do their chores can sometimes be a difficult task, but this free printable chore chart makes things easy and fun! Kids can visually see their assigned chores listed out, and they’ll gain a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction as they check each item off of their list. Assigning kids age-appropriate chores is a great way to teach them valuable life skills, and it’s also a great opportunity for older kids to earn money!

Our printable chore charts come in two different versions that are perfect for springtime (or any time!) – a cute bunny and carrots chart and a pretty flower and butterfly chart. 

Each chart has space to list out ten different chores or tasks (we like to include everything from brushing your teeth to putting away dishes), along with a checkbox for each day of the week. Simply check off the tasks each day as they’re accomplished or use a reward sticker to mark off the job!

You can even laminate the chore chart and use it with a dry-erase marker over and over again! I have an older version of this Scotch laminator that has served me well for over 10 years (including 6 years of heavy and frequent homeschool use!) and is still going strong! It’s probably the most-used machine in my craft room aside from my Cricut Maker!

For toddlers and preschoolers, the thrill of placing stickers on their chore chart serves as a great reward and motivator. Older children often like to work towards a reward, for example, if they complete 90% of their chores that week, they can go out for ice cream or play an hour of video games. Tweens and teens are frequently motivated by money, so allowing them to earn a weekly allowance in exchange for completed chores is another option and another opportunity for learning life skills like budgeting.
