The back to school season may mean new clothes, backpacks and pencil crayons to our kids but to us Moms, it is a time to get organized. One of the best tools for organization is a great calendar. To help, the CanadianParents.com team went in search of the some of the best calendars for todays busy families.

The CPO team discovered that OUR favourite calendar is the Ultimate Family Fridge Calendar and for good reason; Not only is it the ultimate calendar for a busy family but it is Canadian! If you are looking for the BEST family organizer, the Ultimate Family Fridge Calendar is is the one!

Here’s the scoop: In 1992 Deborah Barkhouse went in search of the ultimate “Canadian” calendar and when she couldn’t find one she decided to make it herself. And so, Motherword Inc was born. This magnetic 16-month calendar helps families to get organized at the beginning of the school year; it attaches easily to the fridge and is available in both English and French. The blocks offer lots of space for keeping track of your family and your own schedule too.

This year, Motherword Inc is celebrating 15 years in family calendar making. You’ll find some creative Canadian artwork on each page of the calendar, recipes and quotes too! There’s lots of space to jot down the important events in your family’s life. Check out their website to see their journey unfold. This affordable calendar is available across Canada in many locations including Wal-Mart, Costco and Sobeys. It sells out annually, so don’t miss out. Here’s is a list of where you can find a calendar in your province.
