How People Use the Chore Wheel

From roommate rotations to family chore charts—make household tasks fair.

🏠

Roommate Chore Rotation

Assign weekly chores without the awkward conversation. Each roommate spins once on Sunday evening. No more passive-aggressive notes about who didn't take out the trash. The wheel decides, and everyone commits to the result.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Family Chore Distribution

Give kids ownership over household tasks. Each family member spins to get their Saturday chore. Makes cleaning feel less like punishment and more like a fair game. Parents can spin too—leading by example reduces complaints.

📅

Weekly Chore Assignment

Build a rotation that ensures everyone does a variety of tasks over time. Track who got what last week, remove those chores, and spin again. Over a month, everyone does dishes, vacuuming, and bathrooms equally.

🎮

Gamifying Housework for Kids

Turn chores into a mini-game. Add point values to each task, spin to assign, and let kids earn rewards. The randomness makes it exciting—they don't know if they'll get an easy or hard chore, which builds acceptance and resilience.

Tips & Strategies

Making Chores Fair

1

Weekly Rotation Systems

Set a consistent day and time for chore assignment—Sunday at 6pm works for most households. Each person spins once, or spin multiple times and assign tasks in rotation. Write the results on a whiteboard or group chat so there's no confusion during the week.

2

Spin Once Per Person for Fair Distribution

The fairest method: load the wheel with all chores, then each household member spins once. First person gets whatever the wheel lands on, second person spins from the remaining tasks, and so on. Everyone gets exactly one chore, and fate picks which one.

3

Kid-Friendly Gamification Tips

Make chores fun by adding rewards. Easy chores like dusting earn 5 points, harder chores like mopping earn 10. Kids spin, complete their chore, and track points toward a reward—movie night, dessert choice, or extra screen time. Suddenly, they want to spin.

4

Tracking Completed Chores

Use the "Remove & Spin" button to track what's been done. As each person completes their task, remove it from the wheel. By week's end, the wheel is empty and you know everything got done. Reset the wheel next Sunday and start fresh.

FAQ

Chore Wheel FAQs

Pick a day—usually Sunday—and gather everyone. Load the wheel with the week's chores (dishes, trash, vacuuming, bathroom, kitchen). Each roommate spins once. The wheel assigns tasks randomly, so there's no favoritism or negotiation. Write down who got what, and check back next week. Rotating who spins first keeps it extra fair.
Absolutely. Letting kids spin builds buy-in. They feel like they had a hand in the process, even though it's random. Create a kid-appropriate chore list (feed the dog, make bed, set table, put toys away), let them spin, and celebrate the result. They're far more likely to do a chore they "chose" via the wheel than one you assigned directly.
The wheel doesn't have built-in weighting, but you can manually balance fairness. If someone gets "deep-clean the bathroom," they can get a pass on the next week's spin, or you assign them an easier task manually. Alternatively, add duplicate entries for easier chores (like "Dusting, Dusting, Dusting") to increase their odds, though true randomness tends to balance out over time.
