Age-Appropriate Chore List for Kids: Resources for Parents

I know that most parents want to raise their children the best way possible and are very proactive about it. Sometimes, though, we feel inexperienced or ill-equipped to face some challenges that come up as our children grow. This post is bout chores and I will give you a chore list for kids and other resources.

Every stage in their development brings new challenges. We all know that. One of the challenges is getting our children involved in taking ownership of their home by collaborating in taking care of it.

In other words, they need chores. Chores are good for them! But what is age-appropriate? What is too much and too little? These are great questions!

Also remember that paying kids for chores is a good way to motivate them and kids can also learn about money with debit cards. Here is a list of great resources that will help parents decide that together.

And don’t forget to check out our chore chart hub! It has great ideas to pick the perfect chore chart for multiple kids!
