Summer Months Bring Massive Changes To Family Schedules
(PRWEB) May 27, 2015 -- With the sudden change in a working family’s schedule during the summer months, it’s easy to forget key preparations that will make for a fun and safe summer. ExcelTemplates.net offers various documents that can be used to personalize and support a new schedule.
“All families should have a Family Emergency Plan in place, especially for summer,” said Ben Davidson, spokesperson for ExcelTemplates.net. “This can include who to contact for various emergencies, as well as an emergency meeting place. This information can be shared with anyone who is caring for the kids over the summer.”
Emergency information is also imperative for any babysitter, summer school nurse or summer camp personnel. Whatever activities a child is involved in for the summer months, anyone in charge of their care should be advised of anything that will help keep the child safe and healthy.
Other documents that can help keep a family on track are calendars with the new summer schedule, especially during the first few weeks as everyone adjusts to a new routine. A calendar that is available for the whole family to see will help keep everyone accountable and on track. With the widespread use of smart phones, these calendars can easily be transferred to phone calendar apps that are shared within the family. Any update to a schedule can be seen and shared by everyone.
“Another really great tool to use during the summer months is a Budget Sheet,” explains Davidson. “A family’s spending habits change dramatically over the summer, especially with vacations and excursions. Keeping track of your summer expenses can help plan for the following year and show a realistic view of what can be saved or should be saved.”
No matter what summer plans a family has in store, a prepared family is a safe and healthy family.
