They have great remdinder tips for each week on things every family needs to remember... as simple remember to change out the batteries in your smoke alarms. The grid system is so logical for any family. Each family member has their own slot so tracking after school activties, doctor appointments and more is easy.

Review:

ParentClick Back to School Product Reviews - Fall 2008 The perfect calendar is so hard to find and also a personal decision. We had fun trying out these 3 by Mead with our 10 year old testers. The Pretty Please model is great for the price and perfect for a child's desk or bulletin board. Playful fonts and lots of stickers for marking events.

The Five Star desk pad is an excellent choice for families. It is simple but the feature we loved were the removeable tabs that allow you to put your events on the tab rather than writing directly on the date. If the event changes, you simply move the tab. The weekly assignment is a great tool that can fit into a 3-ring binder. It is a no-frills calendar that has plenty of space for writing and gives kids the opportunity to personalize with photos on the cover photo pockets.

Mom Agenda

Description:Day planner that has spaces at the bottom so that your kid(s) and husband can have their own dedicated schedule section.Website   

Review:I am currently on my 4th Mom Agenda day planner and love it. Old fashioned, I can't rely on an electronic organizer, but rather need the handwritten calendar book to feel organized. Mom Agenda is great, comes in amazing colors and has spots at the bottom of each page to dedicate to your kids, husband, pet, what's for dinner or anything else. Highly recommended!

ParentClick Back to School Product Reviews - Fall 2008  Uglydoll? What a name but we had to admit the line of products is fun and something kids and teens would enjoy. They have everything from ugly dolls, to journals, to t-shirts. The journal is this soft, furry cover with an uglydoll image and would be a great little to do notebook as well.
