My chore chart
Things I can help with
Keep the picture and words matched.
The six pictures cannot change. Edit a label only when it still describes the picture, or use a text-only weekly chore chart for different tasks. Print or save before refreshing; Himula does not upload or store what you enter.
Choose tasks with care
Use pictures to make one clear action easier to see.
These are familiar, low-risk household examples. An adult should teach the task, stay involved when help is needed, and choose tasks that suit the child and the home.
Start with one or two pictures
Leave the other boxes for later. A short chart is easier to practice and notice.
Say what done looks like
For example, “toys are inside the basket” gives the picture a clear finish line.
Do it together first
Show each step, then let the child try with the support they need.

Before you print.
The chart is designed to be a simple, usable prompt.
Can I change the words on the chart?
Yes. Edit the short label under each picture, but keep it describing the picture shown. The six pictures are fixed. If your task does not match a picture, use the text-only weekly chore chart instead.
Does this chart save my edits?
No. Your edits stay in the current browser tab. Print or save the chart as a PDF before you refresh or close the page.
Are these chores for a particular age?
No. Choose tasks based on a child’s experience, skills, interest, and the support available. Teach new tasks together and keep adults responsible for safety decisions.
