“If you are too busy to enjoy quality time with your family, then you need to re-evaluate your priorities.” -Dave Willis
The thing is, how do you spend quality time together as a family if you have no idea of what’s going on in each other’s lives? It’s disconcerting to know that you are in the same household yet have no idea of everyone’s schedules. That’s not how family work, I view that as more of a roommate set-up.
How do I propose a family tackle this problem if they are almost, if not the same, scenario?
There is a simple and easy way.
A family calendar is the answer.
Calendar for a busy family
Mornings are probably the most chaotic time of the day in every household. With parents preparing for work, mom making sure that the kids wake up on time and are in school before being late, mom preparing for work, etc. It’s stressful, especially for moms who have to be in charge of most things.
And you have to admit, the chaos in the mornings can affect your day enough to make you forget about errands, schedules, tasks, and appointments.
For a busy family like yours, it is essential to keep a family calendar that can easily be seen by everyone to keep each other updated. It needs to be placed somewhere where everyone in the household visits frequently. Thus, a magnetic calendar is ideal to be considered as your family command centre.
Why a magnetic calendar?
How many times a day do you visit the kitchen and check the fridge? Multiple times, I guess. And when you check what’s in the fridge, you can’t disregard to look or read at what’s sticking on the fridge.
Not even your kids can ignore it.
And in the middle of your morning chaos, a glance at your fridge can at least calm you down. It’s like an anchor that holds you steady so you won’t get lost in the early morning commotions.
StriveZen Magnetic Calendar
A family command centre is crucial to keep your busy family organized. Thus, you need to have a bigger calendar to write the whole family’s appointments and schedules. The StriveZen Large Magnetic calendar is 17×12 inches. It is big enough to track your entire household’s goings-on.
The problem with most calendars is the little spaces they have to write your schedules on. The StriveZen large Magnetic Calendar addressed this concern. It comes with large daily blocks which are lined to make sure even your writings are organized. Aside from the daily blocks, each monthly page also has space for a to-do list and notes.
One of the things that keep people from buying or using a magnetic calendar is the quality. How long will this calendar stick to the fridge without falling off? Will the pages or the binding hold until its last page or will it fall apart in the middle of using it? These are mostly the reasons why people avoid buying a magnetic calendar. It’s either they have read some bad reviews from the other brands or based it on their own experience.
Quality is one of StriveZen’s strong suits. A magnetic calendar relies heavily on magnets. If the magnets used are of low quality, there is a probability of them falling off. The pages are heavy, especially if the calendar covers 2 years, plus the constant opening and closing of the fridge door are big factors of why it might fall off prematurely.
To avoid that, top strength, premium magnets are used in StriveZen’s Large Magnetic calendar. Before it gets released from production, a rigid quality inspection is done. As a result, customers are happy and satisfied with the calendar’s performance.
Not everyone in the household will find scheduling fun. They won’t be into it right away but with a constant reminder, they will get a habit of it. besides, it helps that the pages of the large magnetic calendar are colourful and festive enough. Each month’s borders reflect the holidays, and events the month represents.
A family that plans together, stays together.
