The Les Belles Combines Weekly Family Planner: the perfect tool for healthy time management!

06 November, 2017

When your house fills up with little ones and there are several schedules to manage, you have no choice but to get organized to orchestrate everything. To balance work and family, you must learn to adequately manage your time AND that of others!

The Les Belles Combines Family Weekly Planner

Les Belles Combines has created a very convenient and equally pretty weekly planning tool (Okay, we didn't reinvent the wheel, but our planner has its own unique "design" touch!). This tool allows you to gather all relevant information in one place so you can see, at a glance, what the upcoming week looks like. You can note the week's meals, everyone's activities and appointments, parents' household chores, and children's "little missions". Finally, we've also made space for weekend projects, personal notes, and items to add to the grocery list. In short, this should solve the problems of "you didn't tell me!", "I wasn't aware!" or "what are we eating for dinner?". This avoids a host of misunderstandings (like the day Passe-Partout's teacher called my house to ask if someone was coming to pick up my little Louis, because class had been over for several minutes. I can't tell you how embarrassed I was.).  

The little educational extra

To give it an educational character, we have allocated a small space for the "Word of the Week". Write down a quote, a new vocabulary word, or an important value for your family!  

A trick from our home

By giving my children "little missions" (use our magnets designed for this purpose and perfectly compatible with the planner!), I begin to teach them responsibility by having them participate in household chores. Presented this way, chores take on a fun aspect and almost look like a game. You should see my two little birds, aged three and four, dusting or pairing socks while listening to the Mission Impossible theme song! When children collaborate, work-family balance is made easier.
