We have 3 new additions to our home. The oldest is 5 and she attends preschool. She came home one day and said her homework is to do a chore and she wants to clear the table. We have her scrape the plates and put the dishes (except knives) in the sink, plus she puts condoments away. We clear the rest and then let her count 8 squirts of cleaner on to the table and she wipes it off. She loves her chore. She asks us if she can dust a lot too, I let her dust my collectibles on the bottom of my curio sometimes and she earns an extra sticker for extra work
Her and our 2 yr old both clean thier rooms. Hers is more organized, his has 2 big toy tubs he is responsible for filling each night. Our 2 yr old has also started clearing off his own place setting recently.
If you aren't sure what chores to assign them, maybe ask them, they may like certain chores, and when they like doing them you'll find they remind you a chore needs done.
