Can you move tidying their rooms and their one other chore to after school? Just keep the morning super simple with breakfast and making the beds so you can get started on school stuff. Then maybe have a mid-afternoon time either after your quiet time (if you do one) or just before you are doing dinner prep where they do their other chore and tidy their room?

If it helps, we only tidy our rooms once a week, not daily, because I just can't deal with it. But I don't have little ones playing in their rooms. Mostly my kids just deal with clothes and random junk that they've thrown on the floor rather than put away. So that might not work for you.

For the type ones, you could make the chore time more fun adding silly songs or music or maybe plan something super exciting, like a snack!, right afterwards so they have a concrete fun thing that they are working towards.
