Planning together – growing together: Our cooperation with “Big Minds” and Alu
A family planner that shows how colorful, honest, and chaotic family life can be.
Family organization is an art in itself. Between daycare, school, work, hobbies, doctor's appointments, get-togethers with friends, and the usual everyday hustle and bustle, sometimes you need an overview that not only provides structure but also empowers.
And that's exactly why we've developed something very special:
The family planner in cooperation with Alu from the family blog "Big Heads"
A planner for real families. For busy weeks. For chaos with heart.
And of course: for lots and lots of love for points.
Why choose a planner with "Big Minds"?
We've been following Alu for many, many years. And anyone who knows Alu knows:
She writes about life as it really is – loud, tender, colorful, sometimes tired, sometimes sad, often funny, always honest. We've captured that genuine family feeling together in the calendar.
Families don't need a calendar that promises perfection.
You need someone who:
🟡 catches it
🟠 gives them structure
🔴 gives them space
🟣 shows that everything finds its place
🔵 and family organization can also be fun.
What makes the family planner so special
1. Developed with genuine family expertise
Alu, as a mother, blogger and family voice, brought exactly what many calendars lack: practicality for everyday life based on lived experience.
2. Clear, concise – and yet creative
The structure is simple, but ingenious:
All appointments are scheduled. Everyone is able to attend.
And adhesive dots make it visual – so that children can participate in the planning just like adults.
3. Colors for each family member
Children can see when they have what.
Mom sees what Dad is planning.
Dad sees what Mom is planning.
Everyone can see: We're doing this together.
4th place for emotions and reality
Adhesive dots make good days colorful – and challenging ones visible.
In this way, the planner becomes not just an organizer, but a communicator.
The family planner as a bonding tool
A planner is not just a planner.
It is a ritual:
Sticking together. Talking together. Deciding together.
Children love to make their week visible:
🟡 Family time
Hobbies
🔴 Festivals
🟣 Birthdays
🔵 Holidays
🟢 Highlights
What happens?
They feel involved.
They understand their everyday lives better.
You will find safety.
And: They enjoy gluing.
The Colors: Family Life in Dot Form
Alu selected adhesive dots that are warm, vibrant, and suitable for everyday use. And pink and gold had to be included!
Children recognize their color immediately – and know at a glance what's going on.
And let's be honest: every family has benefited from having so much clarity.
What Alus Planer wants to tell us:
-
"Families need space. Not every day has to be planned out."
-
"Planning should empower, not stress."
-
"Children don't just want to see dates – they want to see themselves reflected in them."
-
"A planner can also be beautiful. After all, it hangs in the middle of the home."
The calendar bears the signature of a truly wonderful person – and the colors of dot-on.
Conclusion: A planner who connects
The cooperation with Alu from "Große Köpfe" is something very special for us.
Because it shows that planning can be colorful and loving.
That having an overview can provide a sense of security.
And that a calendar is more than just appointments – it's a piece of family culture.
This planner is for all families who say:
"We'll do this together."
And they prove it anew every day.
Point by point.
Week after week.
Year after year.
