Moms of 3 or 4 year old - do you have them doing chores?

What chores do you have your kids doing that they can pretty much complete on their own?

Right now, we have DD empty the dishwasher of silverware and plastic bowls, cups, etc. She puts the silverware away and stacks the cups and bowls for me to put in the cabinet.

What else can I have her do on her own?

Eddie is almost 3 and he has to clear his plate at dinner and clean up his playroom, and feed his fish every day.

My girls (2 & 3 years old) make their beds. They let the dog out to go pee throughout the day. Clean up toys. They love helping sort the laundry on laundry days.
