These little life lessons that seem small in the moment actually play such a big role in shaping the type of person that our children grow up to be.

Toddler Chore Chart Quick Tips:

Save Paper and Printer Ink – ONLY PRINT ONCE – Then use these Peel and Stick Laminating Sheets from Amazon. I’m obsessed with these laminating sheets. I use them for my Toddler’s Potty Training Chart as well. They are SUPER quick and Easy to apply. No need for a laminating machine! Laminate the chart, and the cut outs. (Before you cut them out)

Next, use these Velcro Dots. Just stick them on the back of the Chore Square cut outs, and have the other side of the Velcro Dots on the Chore Chart. (Bonus – These will come in handy for tons of other crafts!)

Or, our new favorite way to use the toddler chore chart is with magnetic printer paper! Just print it on this magnetic paper, and cut out the pieces, then it works perfectly on your fridge or other magnetic surface. Read the description to make sure it will work with your printer. It worked perfectly with my HP Inkjet Printer. The sheets are super thin, so they should work with most inkjet printers.

What Chores Can Toddlers Do?

Believe it or not, YES, toddlers can do chores! While some of the chores they do will be genuinely helpful (at least a little bit anyways), it’s really more so about teaching them about responsibility and hard work. It’s a great way to instill in them that

1. It’s important to chip in and help
2. When you want something, you need to work for it

Allow some extra time to get the tasks done because it will of course take a bit longer with your little helper. Just remember to be patient with them.

What Age Should Your Toddler Start Doing Chores?

Age 2 is a great time to introduce chores to toddlers! They will love having their very own Chore Chart! Get them a Toddler Counter Stool so they can reach the counter to help with any tabletop chores, such as wiping counters, helping cook dinner, helping pack lunches, etc.

Keep it simple with young toddlers, and get a little more detailed and advanced as they grow older. Every toddler is different, so you should gauge your specific child and what you think they could handle. Even if you think they may not understand a particular chore, give them a chance! If it turns out that they really aren’t ready…then just give it a while before you try that chore again. No harm, no foul!

Here are some examples of age appropriate chores for toddlers to help you get started!
