I've been feeling like my house has gotten a little out of control here at the end of the summer, so I'm taking advantage of our new back-to-school routine this week to get started. (And yes, I'm one of those moms with the crazy early school start dates this year.) First step: a family calendar that includes chores, meals, and appointments all in one place. I need it to be flexible, because I know my kids and they get bored with the same responsibilities every day. And, of course, our commitments will change week to week. So I'm absolutely taken with the idea of this peel-and-stick chalkboard calendar in my kitchen, which would be a great way to keep the whole family on the same page. So to speak.

  These 8 peel-and-stick chalkboard panels from Wallies are blank, so they work great for calendars, chore lists, grocery lists, or just a place to jot down practices and appointments for each family member. But the best part is, because it's all written in chalk, it's flexible. So when soccer gets rained out or the kids want to trade chores, you can just erase it and go. Keeping things simple, you guys. You can find the Wallies peel-and-stick chalkboard panels at Paper Source, but they're also at our affiliate Amazon
