The trouble started only a few days in when I noticed the first couple of pages were ripping out. 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. I pulled out the clip that I was using to hold "old pages" and thought that I had solved the problem. 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. 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.
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. 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. 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). 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.
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
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.
It's just a fun planner with all the stickers. 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 fits well in my purse and/or diaper bag. Great Christmas gift for friends who are mothers.
