Product Description

MOM’S FAMILY CALENDAR™ has never looked better, or sold better— sales in 2006 were up 28% over 2005! Abounding with Boynton’s lovably goofy cows and hippos, chicks, pigs, and aardvarks, it’s family organization with a great big smile. MOM’S covers sixteen months, starting in September. Each month’s ingenious, oversized grid is laid out on a vertical, with five columns across the top (one for each family member) and the days of the month reading down the left side. One glance is all it takes to see exactly who is doing what, and when. It’s the ultimate marriage of practicality and, well, cute.

WOW Great Family Calendar
My fifth year buying the Boynton Mom's Family Calendar and I can't believe they actually improved on perfection. This year they added stickers and a Mom's Family Phone List. Let me start with the calendar. Every month has everyday sectioned off for up to five family members. I have a space for everyone in the family and then since I have four members, I block one off for the whole family. This space is for functions that the whole family needs to attend and is also great for birthday reminders. Okay that was the perfect calendar, but now they have added cute stickers that are also very functional. They call attention to appointments like "Birthday, Welcome Home, Dentist, Haircut, Practice, etc." That helps call attention to the calendar, especially for kids and some adults who don't look as often as they should ;). Also included is the Mom's Family Phone List which has magnets on the back and on the front has sections labled "Medical; Family Contacts; Maintenance; Friends, Neighbors, Etc.; Child Care; and Useful Numbers (which are misc.". In these sections there are listings for numbers in that category. As a new working mom and full-time student this phone list is as invaluable as the calendar. I highly recommend this calendar.
By the way, any way of giving more than five stars?!?

Great concept, but needs a little work
I love this calendar! I've used it every year for the past five years and it's helped keep track of our appointments, days off, school projects due, etc. The new stickers included this year were a nice touch, although my daughter took them to decorate her school notebooks.

My only complaint is that the boxes are too small to fit multiple appointments/reminders in one day. A pocket to hold invitations and other reminders would also help.

Awesome calendar for the busy mom!
I have been using this calendar since 1999, and I wouldn't use any other! The 5 vertical collumns are great for putting each family members name and even pets if needed. Our family has no problem knowing who is doing what because they just look under their name. I print small labels for the names when I first get my calendar, letting each person choose their own font, and this deters having to WRITE their name each time. What a time saver!
