Printable Childs Chore Lists



The purpose of these printable childs chore lists is to help you to train your children in how to do the work properly. When you ask your children to do their chores, ever heard the response: "But I don’t know what to do...?" Now it will become as easy as saying to your children: "Here you go, it's all written out for you, let's learn together!"

I have looked at other chore websites to see what they offer you as a parent and one thing they all say is that their product will get your children to do their work.

The thing they neglect to say is that you cannot just stick a chart on a wall and expect your child to act maturely and choose to do their jobs. Just as you dislike certain jobs, so do your children! The catch is this – you are to train them to maturely accept those things that they do not like and do them anyway. And not just any old how – but to the best of their ability.

Money can be a great motivator for a period when introducing a new chore but should not be the only means of motivating a child to work. They need to be motivated from within by strength of character.

Yes - my way promises no quick fix but in the long run your perseverance and time taken to train your children will pay off. Don’t short cut on this valuable life experience and wonderful time to be together.

The idea is this:

  • Use my chore charts to build up the desired chore list for your children

  • Then come alongside your child and train them using the lists I have created below

  • Consider which chores will be paid chores and set up a record of money earned and how it will be paid out.

  • When they are showing the beginnings of mastery of their chores, then begin to wean them of your presence while they do their jobs.

    The Bible says: “For it is precept upon precept, rule upon rule, here a little, there a little.” Isaiah 28:10 And if this is they way God’s prophets taught the people then we too should teach those that are our children in that same way.

    childrens chores Starting from early morning these printable childs chore lists will help you to get your children doing their work well. These printouts will give you a list of “tools” that your child needs and then how they should go about doing their work well.

    I suggest that you have each set of "tools" in a specific place, maybe in a specific container, so they can just grab what they need to get on with the job!

    Once you have printed these out, place them in a plastic flip file or plastic sleeves to ensure they are protected from water and keep them in an accessible place for you and your child.
