Match the tasks to the age

Paediatric guidance is fairly consistent about what is reasonable at each stage. Three to five: putting toys away, helping set the table, dusting low surfaces. Six to eight: making their own bed, clearing the table, packing a lunch, sorting laundry, feeding a pet. Nine to twelve: vacuuming, helping cook, walking the dog, putting away their own laundry, and from about eleven, changing sheets and loading a dishwasher. Thirteen and up is essentially adult work.

The chart is blank so you can match it to your child. Overloading it is the usual failure: four tasks that get done beats nine that do not.

The chart is the child's

Children mark these themselves, which is most of the value. Large boxes, large type, and somewhere within reach. A chart on a parent's desk that a parent fills in is a record, not a chore chart.
