Weekly chores template?

Can anyone point me in the direction of a printable template for daily/weekly household tasks? I live with two of my young adult children (my husband died suddenly a couple of years ago) and I had to stop having a cleaner. My son is autistic and my daughter is very busy - neither of them seem to notice when things around the house need doing. They will do things like hoover when I ask but I’d rather not have to keep asking. I think it would be easier to have a list so that everyone knows what’s been done and what still needs to happen. At the moment the bulk of it all is falling on me - because I’m the one who remembers when the bins need to go out or notices that the bathroom needs cleaning …

my teens had set tasks they did each week. So teen 1 did upstairs bins ,Teen two changed bedding and both cooked one day and did dishwasher one day. They were responsible for their own bedrooms and shared bathroom and had to bring their pots down.

I’ll be honest their bedroooms were pretty untidy and bathroom was never guest ready. Both did cooking and dishwasher fine, I use to have to remind younger dd about bins.
