When I was growing up it was always us kids' responsibility to do the night time dishes. We also each had a weekly household job to do on the weekend. Mine was the bathroom, my brother vacuuming and my little sister dusting (she was less than 10 at the time and determined to do something too). We were all responsible for keeping our rooms tidy, hanging up towels etc - it wasn't a 'job' just an expectation. I feel this was plenty - we also had homework and after school sports too. We would occasionally do other things (like cook dinner or ironing), but we generally volunteered as it was all about working together.
