Mom's Family Desk Planner 2008

It’s mobile Boynton! Mom's Family Desk Planner moves seamlessly from desk to purse and is indispensable for moms on the go (and what mom isn't on the go?). Each handy week-at-a-glance grid features two columns—one for Mom's schedule and one for the whole family's schedules. In the back, Mom can record phone numbers for school, work, maintenance and repair people, and restaurants. Plus there are perforated grocery and "to do" lists, 150 full-color stickers, and storage pockets on the inside front and back covers. And, this being Boynton after all, the spreads are illustrated with a cast of lively, lovably charming animal characters.

Disappointed... (2008-10-11)

Let me preface this by saying I am a huge fan of the Boynton Wall calendar and have purchased one every year for several years. This year I decided to get the desk calendar as well and at first, I loved it. After taking an hour or so to enter in the kids school calendar, my school calendar, every birthday and special event for the year and anything else I could come up with, I was ready to go. The trouble started only a few days in when I noticed the first couple of pages were ripping out. I pulled out the clip that I was using to hold "old pages" and thought that I had solved the problem. One week later, I threw the Family Desk Calendar in the garbage. I loved everything about the calendar EXCEPT the fact that it kept falling apart...

Perfect Planner for Mom! (2008-03-10)

I've been a fan of Sandra Boynton's "Mom's Family Wall Calendars" for years, but last year, when I moved into my new house, I couldn't find a good place for it where it would be easily visible, and more importantly, usable. So this year, when I saw this planner, I was overjoyed!

Same great art spread out over 52 weeks with the same great stickers to use for every occasion! There's more than enough space to keep track of my stuff, along with both of my kids (although, for bigger, active families this could be an issue, as there is only a differentiation for 'Mom' and 'Kids', not the split available on the wall calendar). I use it daily (it fits in my medium size purse and goes everywhere with me) and have yet to miss an event, appointment or bill for that matter!

I love the to do and grocery (automatically makes chocolate #9 AND #10 on every list!), plus all the other extras in the back section!

Definitely recommend this product for every single mom out there. Even if you just leave it on your desk to flip through, you're going to find yourself better organized (oh, it has pockets, too!) and less stressed out!

The only CON I found was the adhesive for the pockets did not hold very well, but that was easily remedied with scotch tape.

Desk Planner (2008-02-19)

I love this desk planner, it has been wonderful. It has plenty of room to write in and cute pre made lists that are perfect for daily errands. I wouldn't choose any other after using this one

love it! (2008-02-14)

i love it, i love stickers and the lists and the mom/family divided days days... i tell every mom about it! one mom did say she loved it but needed the daily time record as well as just day, but that's the only complaint.

A Mom's must have!!! (2008-02-07)

This is my second year using this planner and I absolutely love it. I have a busy family of five, I find it to be very simple and easy to use. It's just a fun planner with all the stickers. It fits well in my purse and/or diaper bag. Great Christmas gift for friends who are mothers.

Beautiful calendar (2008-02-08)

This calendar is just beautiful... Susan Branch's artwork and scripting is just fun and light-hearted and gorgeous. I really enjoy it.

Susan Branch Calendar (2008-01-28)

Like everything of hers. The pictures and sayings are food for thought. Would like more items of hers at Amazon.

Susan Branch Rocks! (2008-01-27)

Susan Branch is my favorite and being able to get her stuff on Amazon is great! High quality as always and just perfect for any room!

I love Susan Branch! she just gives you a warm and cozy feeling when you read her books or see her calendars!! ahhhh!!

Susan Branch Seasons 2008 calendar (2007-10-06)

Having been a Susan Branch fan from the get-go, I couldn't wait to see her new 2008 calendar and it definitely does not disappoint! Her beautifully lettered and watercolored designs for each month make turning the calendar page a real event! She just keeps getting better and better!

2008 BusyBodyBook Personal & Family Organizer: Zigzag

Customes reviews 6

Brilliant Organizer (2009-08-08)

Been using this organizer for two years and couldn't live w/out it. 3 kids under 6yrs old. The only complaint for 2009 is the lack of space to put in contacts (people's contact info). The 2008 version had front and back and this year only a front side. Otherwise this organizer is nothing short of perfect.

My favorite calendar! (2008-04-06)

This is the only calendar I use for my family. This is my second one and I absolutely love it. I use my BBB every day, all day. The individual columns for each family member is great. I love the pockets in the front and back to hold cards and invitations. The book mark is ingenious and stays in place perfectly. I definitely recommend this calendar for busy families such as mine. It's a wonderful organizer!

Love it! (2008-03-01)

This organizer is great for anyone who is multi-tasking. It is great for a student organizing assignments and for the busy mom trying to keep track of all the family obligations and appointments. I would highly recommend getting this product.

Getting Organized is so easy (2008-02-11)

The Busy Body Book is one of those products that makes me stop and say - "why didn't I think of that?" It's easy to use, it's adaptable...don't have kids? Not an issue...those blank columns can be used for anything from appointments to project planning (which is what I do) This is not just a product for mom's any person who needs help with organization will benefit from this planner.

organizer (2008-01-20)

I like everything about the planner except for the page holder. It slips off the rings very easily.

2008 Family Planner for the Household CEO

Did it ever occur to you that the average stay at home mom has as many appointments, deadlines and meetings to attend as a CEO running a busy corporation? Well, it did to Jacquelyn Schack and that is why she has created the "Family Planner for the Household CEO." The planner is designed especially for today's busy woman, who is also a mom. Women today are no longer staying at home as the babysitter. Today's mom has endless demands in managing the household as well as her busy schedule and the busy schedules of her children. The Family Planner includes weekly calendar pages with facing organizer pages for phone calls, errands, grocery and kids activities (playdates, lessons sports). There is also an area for alphabetized frequently called numbers along with pages for both mom's and kids' friends numbers, babysitters, school numbers, children's organizations, doctors and medical information. The Family Planner allows mom to organize her schedule and household demands right along side her children's schedules. From the spill resistant cover to the Household CEO detachable business cards, this planner is an essential organizational tool for every woman who is truly the "Household CEO."

Not what I thought it would be.... (2008-11-11)

I am a homeschooling mom of 6 bought this planner with hope. It was not so. You might as well go to a retail store, buy a day planner, and write "Homeschool planner" on the front. That is about what you get with this planner. I wish I had NOT bought this book, but maybe it will work for you.

After I sent the above back to Amazon, I bought, "The Ultimate Homeschool Planner: The Last Planner You Will Ever Need" and it was well worth the money.

Keeps us organized (2008-03-14)

We've homeschooled our seven year old for several years now. We only have one other child (she's just 15 months). There is plenty of space for my needs -- we're "eclectic" in our homeschooling with lots of unschooling tendancies. For us -- this product is great! I love the fact that the left hand page (with the space for planning) has five blocks but is unlabeled. This allows you to either group five subjects or fill in five days..and they don't need to be M, T, W, Th, Fr...they can be whatever you want them to be. I like the roomy 8 1/2 by 11 pages. It's a perfect fit for our family's needs.

Good Organizer, TOO big for my purse (2007-07-10)

The layout is OK but the organizer is too big to carry in my purse. Maybe it was meant to be a desk organizer. I did not check the dimensions before placing my order. The product specs are correct, "10.9 x 8.8 x 0.5 inches." Also, the covers are not as sturdy as the ones in other homeschooling organizers I have purchased in the past.

This HS organizer is a better family organizer than a HS organizer. It does not have enough room for detailed day by day lesson planning but it works OK if you just want to keep track of lesson numbers or page numbers to be done during the week. I think this organizer was not meant for multiple students.

If you want to look inside this organizer before placing your order, go to Amy Knapp's website, www.familyorganizer.com.

Thought Provoking (2008-02-12)

All tips so far have included a usable web link and, although many of the daily "tips" are not applicable for me personally, they are all at least thought provoking... and I enjoy that :)

Advertising, not environmentalism (2008-01-18)

This product is pure and simple advertising. Most pages feature a product and a website where it can be purchased. And some of the products are about as far off the environmentalism mark as it is possible to be. Today's (Jan. 18) example is a product called a pupcup. This is the pet equivalent of bottled water, a huge environmental no-no.

Herb Gardens 2008 Calendar: Recipes & Herbal Folklore

Sample Caption: "Parsley is a great breath freshener because of the high chlorophyll content. Thyme has antiseptic qualities and aids digestion. Parsley is a good source of vitamins A, B, and C, plus minerals. Thyme grows well with lavender and sage and attracts bees to the garden."

Both beautiful and practical (2008-01-31)

The photos are very nice. One problem with pictorial calendars is that sometimes it's easy to tire of the pictures before the month is out. That shouldn't be a problem with this calendar. The January recipe, risotto with mushrooms and herbs, was quite tasty. Scattered around the calendar dates are various tidbits of folklore and miscellanea. I didn't know, for instance, that the Chinese used garlic to ward off the evil eye. After enjoying this calendar for the rest of this year, I'll likely get another one of these for 2009.
