FREE PRINTABLE CHORE CHARTS

Do your kids do chores? I find it hard to keep up with my four kids and their chores if we don’t have chore charts hanging up – at a glance, I can see who I should praise for doing a great job keeping up with their chore chart, and who tends to forget and needs a gentle reminder.

Did you know that kids tend to jump on board with new things when they are involved in the prep? So the secret is this: Show your kids the design options we have available for download, and I’ll bet they’ll be excited to start the chore chart that THEY chose! Crazy, right? (Psst: it works for food, too….let your kids arrange vegetables nicely on a tray, and they’re likely to eat more of them than usual…..just a tip, from mom to mom.) 😉

Printable chore charts make our mornings run smoother — I can do the things I need to do to get ready for the day, and the kids know their “to-do’s” are all there, written out. I don’t like “nagging” my kids — “Did you brush your teeth?” “Did you practice piano?” These printable chore charts will cut down on that ugly “mom-nagging” 😉 because the only job you’ll need to give your kids is this: “Make sure you’ve done everything on your chore chart!” It makes for a nicer morning all the way around. 🙂

MAKING YOUR PRINTABLE CHORE CHARTS LAST LONGER

If you don’t want to print and fill out a new chore chart every week (I do this because I rotate chores often, depending on what needs done most that week.), you have a couple easy options:

Laminate your chore chart and write on it with a dry erase marker – these laminating sheets are available on Amazon.com, and they’re great because they’re self-adhesive! You don’t have to have a thermal laminator to use these!
Get these acrylic sign holders (they come with 3M velcro adhesive tape on them for easy mounting!) from Amazon.com and write on them with a dry erase marker.

By the way, my kids’ favorite way to fill out their printable chore charts is with stamp markers — look at these fun stamp markers available on Amazon.com! We currently have some basic shapes (like these RoseArt Stamp n Color), but I think we’ll try these emoji ones next!
