Have you looked at org-checklist.el in contrib? I wrote that to handle this kind
of thing.
Make sure org-checklist.el is in your load path, and add
(require 'org-checklist)
to your .emacs. You can then set up your daily task like so:
,----[ test.org ]
| * TODO test
| SCHEDULED: <2009-01-29 Thu + 1d>
| :PROPERTIES:
| :RESET_CHECKBOXES: t
| :END:
| - [ ] Task 1
| - [ ] Task 2
| - [ ] Task 3
`----
and when you mark it done all the checkboxes will be cleared.
