How to Make a Family Planner in Apple Pages
Statista reports that there are 83.9 million families in the USA. If you're living in the USA, then you're one of them. For most, running a family is no easy task. Every day is a struggle to drive a smooth-sailing family. You need something to help you run the household. You need a family planner. Planners improve organization, track plans, and evaluate progress.
1. Get a Planner
Firstly, before you can start planning, you have to get a planner. Planners come in a variety of types: budget planner, diary planner, dot grid planner, and others. Choose whatever you think fits the family's needs. Other planners are all-in-one, meaning it can work as a diary, a financial planner, a to-do list, and a bullet journal. You can buy a notebook planner or download a planner template online.
2. List the Things You Want for Each Section
Secondly, if you prefer a planner that has a lot of functions, you have to list these things. Identify how many sections you need. You can make a calendar for each month, make a meal planning ideas section, a goal planner section, and create a section for the budget. Make sure that you divide the planner carefully so that it is always organized. You can search online about how a certain planner page looks like so that you have an idea. Make a table on the planner if you want. See what works best for family management.
3. Make it Attractive
On the third step, if you favor a creative planner, you can design it. Put colors, stickers, and paste pictures. You can even make a family tree on one of the pages to make it artistic. The visual elements on the planner will depend on your liking. If you are using a template, sometimes, you don't have to design it because some already have designs on them. Also, if you don't like a creative planner, you can stick to making it look plain and simple.
4. Start Planning
Now that you have a planner, you can start planning. You can plan the day before, a week earlier, or month(s) before. For example, you are planning for supper, then list down dinner ideas. You can also make meal planning on a budget for the meal planner section. Likewise, you can start planning for the management of chores. List the names of the family members who are designated on certain tasks. You may also list reminders like a doctor or dentist visit dates for the family. Your planning will depend on the sections and the things you need to do to manage the family.
5. Use the Planner Often
Lastly, you have to make it a habit to fill the planner often. If you don't make it a habit, chances are you can lose interest for it. Make a schedule of when you have to open and fill the planner. Always remember that your planner is a great teacher and friend for managing and running your family. Good luck!
