Synchronising your households schedules

Johnny has band practice Monday afternoon at 4:30pm, your partners got a breakfast meeting on Tuesday morning at 7:30am and Sarah's award presentation is at the school at 10am. Life is busy isn't it?



Every household member has their own appointments, meetings, lessons, events and so on. I get a headache just trying to remember it all. Sure you can put it in your diary and/or your phone but what about the other family members schedules. What if they have an event that conflicts with yours? That's when things really do get complicated.

A couple of years ago my Mother in law gave me a fabulous calendar for Christmas. It's not your normal calendar with a different picture each month and those little tiny boxes for each day. This calendar is called a 'Family activities Planner' and it's by Sasco. There is a column for each family member for each and every day of the year.

What's so good about it?

1) It has a separate column for each household member.
2) Comes with brightly coloured stickers that can be stuck on to remind you of a special event, occasion or appointment.
3) Has lots of space to write about any appointment for each household member.
4) It's blank type template means you can completely customise it for your family's needs.
5) It's under $10 with a little handle ready to hang it up in your home.
6) Larger than most calendars, it stands out and is easy to see.
7) Has a notes section at the bottom of each month.
