How to make family organization fun with sticky dots
When appointments become colorful, children and parents keep track together
Family life is colorful – and planning should be just as colorful! Between school, hobbies, birthdays, vacations, and family celebrations, the calendar quickly fills up. To encourage children to actively participate rather than just "follow the flow," a visual and playful solution is ideal: planning with sticky dots .
With colorful dots, children can choose their own color, mark appointments, and even take responsibility for themselves. This makes planning understandable, motivating—and really fun. In this article, we'll show you how to use sticky dots to plan with children and the benefits they bring to everyday family life.
Why planning with children is important
Children love being able to have a say in their own lives – and that's exactly what they can do with family planning. A clearly structured calendar helps not only parents but also children better understand everyday life.
Benefits of involving children in planning early on:
🟡 Learning responsibility : Children take on their own appointments.
🟠 Promote independence : You see what needs to be done and when.
🔴 Overview for everyone : No more appointments will be forgotten.
🟣 Fun & Motivation : Colors make planning playful.
How tarpaulin with adhesive dots works for families
1. Everyone gets their own color
Mom is green, dad is blue, the daughter is pink and the son is yellow – so everyone can see immediately whose appointment is in the calendar.
2. Stick the holiday countdown
Children can stick the days until the holidays or a birthday down – this increases anticipation and makes waiting easier.
3. Plan classwork & homework
Exam dates can be clearly marked with adhesive dots – children can stick their own study times on them.
4. Colorfully label hobbies and activities
Music lessons, soccer training, ballet or meeting friends – each hobby has its own color and is immediately recognizable.
5. Visualize family projects
Vacation preparations, renovations, or family celebrations? With points, everyone can see who's doing what.
Tips & tricks for relaxed planning with children
🟡 Less is more : Don’t overload the plan, but limit yourself to the essentials.
🟠 Create a routine : Stick appointments together every Sunday – this keeps things clear.
🔴 Make successes visible : Checked or covered points motivate children enormously.
🟣 Allow for fun : Dots can also be used for decoration – stars, patterns or small pictures included!
Playful learning through points
Planning with adhesive dots is not only practical but also educationally valuable:
🟡 Practice math : With the holiday countdown, children learn in a playful way how many days are left.
🟠 Develop a sense of time : Through visible weekly and monthly overviews, children understand how long “soon” really is.
