Schedules

I have a friend that has asked me about our schedule. When you come in my home there is a pretty colorful board on the wall that looks organized and well put together. In fact putting together the pretty schedule board was the easy part. The funny thing about the schedule board is that it won't institute itself. Just because it says 8:00 bedtime, the kids don't listen to it very well ;)

When I first started using it I thought it would be utilized more by the children, however after tweaking it and using it for a few months, I realize it is primarily for me. It reminds me of the days events, what should happen, and it keeps me on track. I find myself checking the board and staying much more focused with what "needs" to happen during my day.

My board is set in 30 minute increments, it is divided into two columns for each day, and runs Monday through Saturday.Maddy is the first column and Liv is the second. You could add a third as needed. I use post it tabs to customize it for my day. I like being able to see how much school time we are getting in and chore time.

This is a mixture of my friend Debi's schedule board and MOTH.
