How it works
- Type the names, or paste a list. Drag a name by its handle to change who starts with which chore.
- Type the chores, one per line, and pick how long each turn lasts: a day, a week or two weeks.
- Print it, A4 or US Letter, or put each person's chores in their phone's calendar.
What people use it for
Kids' chores, roommates in a shared flat, a dorm floor, the office kitchen. For work, the rotation maker does on call and team rotas.
A chore chart template that fills itself
A printable template has the chores, then someone writes the names in every week (and the argument starts). This one writes them: type the names once, and each week moves everyone to the next chore. Print 4 weeks or 12, whatever fits the fridge.
Questions
- How do I make a rotating chore chart?
Type the names, then the chores, one per line, and set each turn to 1 week. The chart shows who does what for the weeks ahead. Click Print.
- How do the chores rotate?
Each turn, everyone moves to the next chore on the list, and whoever had the last one goes back to the first. With 3 kids and 3 chores, everyone does each chore once every 3 weeks.
- What if there are more chores than people?
Someone gets two chores that week, and it moves around like the rest. The counts next to each name show it evens out. With fewer chores than people, someone gets the week off.
- Can chores change every day?
Yes, set each turn to 1 day and pick the days that count, school days only for example. The chart then has a row per week and a column per day.
- Can I print it?
Yes. Print fits A4 and US Letter, reads in black and white, and has a box to tick next to each chore.
- Is it free, and where is it saved?
It is free, with no account and no ads. What you type stays in this browser until you change it.
