Product Description
It's a calendar, a planner, and so much more. Combining organizational finesse with zesty Boynton illustrations, Mom's Family Desk Planner goes everywhere and anywhere Mom does. And now this planner runs a full 16 months, beginning boldly when school starts in September 2008, and ending gracefully on New Year's Eve 2009.
On the lefthand side of each spread is an emissary from the Boynton menagerie to brighten your week (a cat, a rhino, a penguin, the obligatory cow). On the righthand side, there's a week-at-a-glance grid with two generously-sized write-in columns, one for Mom's schedule, one for the family's comings and goings.
Section 2 of the desk planner features space for important phone numbers?from doctors to school contacts to restaurants. Then there are tear-out grocery and to-do lists, and some extra pages for scribbling down important and/or inconsequential things. And stickers! Put them on special dates, or perhaps use them to lavishly decorate your tax return. After all, Moms need to have fun too.

 Good simple planner November 2, 2008
This has been great for us. I wish there were more spaces to write things, but other than that its been perfect!
Well done and amusing October 30, 2008
Bought this planner for a friend with several children and it was a big hit. She can carry it with her comfortably and the bright color makes it a cinch to spot in a dark car. There are enough columns for a family of 6 and the format makes it simple to see "who is doing what, when and where - but not why". Which about sums up family life...It is also easy to write on, whcih is a major plus from my point of view.
 Loved it! October 27, 2008
I really loved this planner, specially that it has a side where i can write stuff for my family every day and a side for myself :)
How can you go wrong with Sandra Boyton October 10, 2008
There is very little to complain about with this calendar. The publisher upgraded it to a 16 month calendar (which was quite advantagous for me, as my 2008 version was destroyed beyond use in late July). The also rounded the corners of the front and back covers. This aids in preventing this calendar from being too badly battered if it is carried in a purse, backpack or bag, which mine frequently is. However, the edges of the covers continue to extend over the edges of the calendar pages by a good half inch. This would not be an issue if the cover weren't made of a heavy cardstock type material. But since it is, the edges of my calendar look like it's gone through a tornado by mid-year. I solved this problem by "laminating" the edges with packing tape. The publisher could solve this problem by either making the cover of a more sturdy material or by making the edges the same size as the pages. If it weren't for this issue, I'd give this 5+ stars.
Not just a calendar July 13, 2008

I've been buying the Mom's Calendars for many years - at first the wall calendars. First, they are cute qnd I love cute. A great organizer, with vertical columns for each member of your family. One look and you know who needs to be where at what time for why. As my daughter was on the school dance team, son was in band and softball and husband a teacher, it was an enormous help. The stickers were fun, too. The engagement calendar I only recently discovered and I love it as much as the Wall calendar. The grocery lists in the back that tear off easily, To Do Lists that I can fill out and Hand Out! and once again the columns on each page, one glance and I know what to do & when. No more bulky agendas. One less stress point. Thank you Ms, Boynton.
