This easy DIY magnetic chore chart printable will help each family member remember their assigned household jobs. Weekly or daily, personal and family editable chore chart for kids.
Summer is here! We’ve been enjoying our new camper (which may someday become a glamper, we’ll see) and enjoying some wonderful family time. All of this has left our household and house out of sorts and a bit neglected. Which makes this mom just a little bit crazy. So, to spark some enthusiasm and get everyone back on the clean-enough-we-can-live-here brigade, we put together an expanded version of our cleaning binder chore chart for kids.
Our spring cleaning pack includes a simple toddler-friendly chore chart, with 5 basic chores that kids can do at any age: tidy, dust, wash, fold, and toss.
This expanded version includes more specific chores suitable for older children, too. From vacuuming and feeding the pets to scrubbing the toilet and doing the dishes — plus 3 different editable chore sheets to type in any other age-appropriate tasks for kids.
I know some great parents out there have a chore chart that has stood the test of time, that they’ve found a system of chores and allowance that works for them and their family and that they’ve been using for years.
We are not that family.
While the tasks stay much the same (and our kids get more chores as they get older), I find that it helps us to mix up the system every so often and add a bit of novelty back to the chore chart system.
When creating a new family chore chart, the number one requirement is that it is quick and easy to set up, and easy for everyone in the family to understand. This editable custom magnetic chore chart checks all the boxes!
Customize the daily or weekly chart with family members names or cleaning zones, with custom chores for each — easy peasy!
And we’ve even included an entire page for you to enter custom chores — just type it into the sheet before printing.
