I love chore charts...the act of crossing off your to do list feels so good, my children think so too and even though I still need to help them out..that is ok they are in training mode.
A child needs to be trained a minimum of 7x on a job before they feel confident on doing it on their own. I always tell them they are in training and help them with their chores until they are trained then they can do it them selves.
This is one of my favorite chore charts that I have used in my family.http://printable.tipjunkie.com/pocket-chore-cards-printable-chore-charts/

Boost and build your children, focusing on specific things they do right not just praise in general. They grow up so fast lets enjoy them.
How to make Chores FUN?
Music-Clean when music is on, stop when music turns off
Red light Green Light- Green light they clean up...Red light they freeze
Magic item- I pick an item on the floor that is the magic item...we start to clean and who ever picks up that item gets a treat or doesn't have to clean the next room.
On the Chair Everyone helping sits on a chair..one person goes and picks up 5 items then tags the next person sitting on the chair...only one person can clean at a time. See how fast you can clean up.
