Family Planner: how planning becomes a family moment

Family Planner: how planning becomes a family moment

At the request of the littlest one, we made the Family Planner in Dutch.

How do you make sure planning doesn't feel like another task, but something your family looks forward to? Give everyone a place. Our new Family Planner does exactly that.

First: put it together

The Family Planner is made from a cardboard base with adhesive strips and a tear-off pad of reclaimed paper, just like the rest of our range. Peel off the backing from the stickers, line up the tear-off pad on the marked edge, and hang it up or set it upright. Done in a few minutes.

Then: make it yours

A planner only works if everyone actually uses it, including the kids. That's why every family member gets their own circle on the Family Planner: room for a photo, a drawn face, or simply a name. No complicated systems, no fine print.

Below the circles, you'll find blank lines to fill in yourself. A weekly menu, who's doing which chore, or anything else. The Family Planner adapts to your family, not the other way around, much like every piece of reclaimed paper we give a new life.

Every family week has its highlights and quotes worth remembering. There's a spot for that too, right alongside the planning, so nothing gets lost.

Planning that becomes a habit

A good habit starts with a fixed moment. Choose the same evening each week and turn it into a small ritual.

For the youngest in the family, words can still be tricky. Use stamps or drawings instead, so they can see at a glance what's on the schedule. Even the family pet gets a spot if you want.

At the bottom, there are two open lines. Fill them in however suits your family: a weekly menu, chores, a "don't forget" list, who's driving to practice. Make the Family Planner your own.

Planning should be fun above all. That's why we added extra sections you won't find anywhere else: a spot for the best quotes of the week, and a spot to reflect together on the highlights. Taking a moment to look back at what went well feels good, even on a busy weekday.
