This list is awesome! My little one isn’t old enough for chores yet, but this list reminds me of the system we had growing up and it worked great for us. I love that you mentioned modeling hard work, that is so incredibly important. Thanks for sharing!

This is a great list! We also have chores that are unpaid and then extra things our girls can do for pay. Sharing this on Pinterest and FB!

In reply to Brianna Beatty. What are your kids ages and what are the chores they are doing now? I'm sure we can come up with some ideas for you! I see extra chores as things that are not normally their responsibility, for example making moms bed might be a paid chore while making their own bed is a non-paid responsibility.

I am just curious to know what qualifies as “extra work” in your house? We have chore charts and have delegated specific chores for each kid in order to fit their appropriate age. After that I am lost as to what might be extra work that could do to earn money and yet it wouldn’t be out of their capability of doing. Thanks in advance!

This came at a perfect time. I’m actually building a chore chart for my boys today.
