Parenthood is a masterclass in time management and multitasking. Between your job, running the household, and making sure the kids are alright; you sure can use an extra pair (or more) of helping hands. Lucky for you, you don’t have to look far.

Believe it or not, kids as young as two years old can start contributing to the household. One of the best ways to introduce this concept to your children is with the help of a chore chart.

Chore charts are an effective way to delegate household responsibilities and remind kids of their daily tasks, and acclimate them to the idea of following a daily routine. And the best part? We combed the Internet to bring you a curated selection of the best chore chart templates for kids of all ages.

Chore charts and motivation go hand in hand, according to psychology. Checking things off the list one by one feels satisfying because they are like multiple accomplishments that build a kid’s motivation. Their brain is jolted with positive feelings every time kids finish a task, even small and easy ones. The more they accomplish, the better they feel. 

Things done in a systematic way. It can also help them keep track of their progress and become more motivated as they get closer to the finish line. This interesting loop of completing tasks is why chore charts are great for kids!
