This past year I tried the beautiful Well Planned Day. It was the first booth that I walked by at last year's convention. The young, eager salesmen wanted to talk to someone. It was a fine looking planner that, if I am correct, was written by a homeschool mom. So I bought one, with the matching binder. I wanted so bad to love this planner. From the start the binder was just too bulky and was made of a cloth like binding. Meaning, I was OCD about it staying white. I sold it while it still looked new. :/
Well, as much as I loved the design. I just could not get in sync with the planner. I am sure many mom's love it. So, what do I do for planning? I am totally eclectic. Here I will share links to the site I use for my forms. I make my own binder. First one: Donna Young
Honestly, she has a gold mine here and it is all free!
My other go to place for planning is: The Homeschool Mom
I did the same thing with THE WELL PLANNED DAY.
ReplyDeleteI wanted so bad to fall in love. Just didn't happen at this stage in Homeschooling.
Thanks for this post....you likely are saving lots of us LOTS of money and time...and disappointment.
I'm a cheapo and refuse to spend money on a planner, that I'm bound to not like. I have looked at The Well Planned Day and several others to try and create my own. It's kind of funny, that I always create something that is similar to a school teacher's planner. I guess 10 years of being in the classroom is still in my blood.
