Breeze through every school holiday / school break with my free and simple-to-use planners!
Whether you’re a mum or a mom, and whether you call it school holidays or school break, these free planners are made for you.
Every time school is out, I feel a mix of relief and apprehension. On one hand, it’s lovely to slow down, settle into a more relaxed routine, and — if you’re lucky — head off on a family getaway.
But, if we’re staying home (for all or part of the break), the pressure’s on. I know I’ll need to keep my daughter entertained and engaged – and without a plan, the days can quickly become chaotic… and expensive!
That’s why I always take some time to plan ahead. Setting a budget, planning activities, and having a flexible schedule makes a huge difference.
If that sounds like your kind of prep too, you’ll love my Free Printable School Holidays / School Break Planners. They’re designed to help you feel organised, stay on track, and enjoy the break (yes, you too!). These planners can be used for any time school is out throughout the year. Here’s what’s included in the pack:
Daily Spend Planner
The Daily Spend Planner helps you plan your days and keep your spending on track. Having the kids at home can be expensive, and costs creep up fast. This page helps you stay mindful of your daily spend so you can enjoy the break without the stress of blowing the budget.
Daily Schedule
There are two versions of the daily schedule: one designed for those staying home and one for families who are travelling. If your break is a mix of both, just alternate between them as needed.
BONUS! Mum’s Screen Time Contract
I absolutely love this resource. When it comes to managing how often — or how long — your daughter is on her device, this cute little contract helps you stay in charge. It also teaches her about healthy balance and responsibility in a really simple, positive way. And the best part? You can use it all year round, not just during the school break.
Finally, I want to end with a funny (but very true) quote about parents holidaying with their kids…
