Launching Pad

I know I have promised pictures for some time. I suppose the only piece to the "launching pad" I forgot to include was a trusty assistant that could remind me to do all those things I have promised....like posting pics of the  "launch pad" :

It’s been a fun way to remind the kids of their daily expectations without feeling like a broken record.

I can’t quite convince my husband yet that it’s a good idea to hang their backpacks at the launch pad; however, feel free to flood his facebook page with your thumbs up of approval. J

Believe it or not, my favorite part is the calendar and can easily be replicated in your house in a matter of minutes without spending any money (bonus!). I used an old frame that was in the back of my closet, turned the picture that comes with the frame upside down and pulled a calendar sheet from my wall calendar and attached it with double sided tape. If you don’t have a wall calendar, you can always print a calendar from your computer. Next I pulled out some handy dandy dry erase markers (color coded for each family member so I can see who has responsibilities at a glance from across the room). Schedules, volleyball games, and commitments can be written directly on the glass with a blank space on the side for notes.
