Organizational – Activity: Set Up a Household Notebook
It is super easy to set up a Household Notebook to create a very helpful tool. Don’t tell anyone, but it’s actually kind of fun too! You can use some of the great resources like the ones below and at the Daily PlanIt Household Binder Notebook Board at Pinterest. More can be found at OrganizedHome.com, Organizing Homelife, and this Tipnut post. This is one of the weekly activities for a Year of Personal Development.
Check out the Daily PlanIt Household Binder Notebook Board at Pinterest.

I seek to create order from the chaos of complex information. Join me at the Daily PlanIt to gain insights, inspiration, and information to increase skills for a better life. I unlock the power of teaching reading with phonics in the pursuit of literacy at www.phonicspow.com. In my spare time I explore books and movies, often choosing titles available on both screen and page.
