What chores does your 9/10 year old have. DS does certain chores when I ask him to, but I'd like to have a list of chores for him to do without asking.
DS vacuums the house, cleans the kitchen, and cleans his bedroom (dusting, organizing, etc.) once a week. Daily chores are pretty much just cleaning up after himself and making sure his homework is done.
I would ask DS what he would like to do for his chores so he has some control over the decision.
My 10 yr old DD does these chores: loads and unloads dishwasher, feeds dog and cat, cleans kitty litter box, picks up after herself. DD does these chores during the week on the weekend my stepkids are home they help her.
