Organizers For Modern Moms (And Dads!)

Sometimes it seems like the quest for the perfect organizer is an endless one…and it doesn’t get any easier once you’re managing a family on top of all your own commitments. To make it a little easier to stay on track without compromising your sense of style, we’ve found a few great products that just might be perfect for you!

1. BusyBodyBook offers a range of modern, gender-neutral planners, calendars, and weekly organizers, all based on a grid format that lets you track up to 5 people at the same time. The weekly organizer (available in both August-August and January-December formats) also includes a full page of note-taking space for each week, making it easy to track those tasks that need to be completed soon…but maybe not today. Prices range from $17.95 for the weekly organizer to $12.95 for the undated grid pad.

2. Truly Mom is a line of stylish stationery, planners, calendars, and more. The weekly planner runs from September-December (of the following year, of course) and includes monthly pages, stickers, and a handy pocket designed to hold all those little scraps of paper than accumulate at the bottom of your purse. At $6.95, this compact planner is a great deal, as well!

3. momAgenda’s offerings are more expensive, but worth it if you’re interested in a complete system. Colorful planners, organizers, notepads, and more are designed to meet any need–and are refillable! The website also offers downloadable lists to help you organize specific tasks such as throwing a birthday party, tracking your spending, tracking holiday gift purchases, and setting goals. Prices range from free (for the downloads) to $145 for a refillable leather binder. Refills (which may be purchased and used on their own) are $23.95, and cover the months of September-December.

4. Galison’s Weekly Organizers offer a great value for anyone interested in an undated system. Within each stylish folder, you’ll find a sheet that helps you plan your week, as well as sticky notes in a variety of sizes and a reclosable envelope to hold receipts or any anything else that comes your way. Priced at just $17, these would make fantastic gifts for friends and family members as well!
