How do you keep track of all kids activities and appointments?

I use plum paper planner. I’ve tried using apps and I just can’t keep up with it. I’m a tactile leaner though, so I’m sure that has a lot to do with it.

I have a white board that has the monthly plans on it. With a color marker for each person.

Family google calendar. Each family has access to it and adds events as necessary. We review each Sunday.

I have 3 kids, but only 2 in activities since one just turned 3. Our kids have the same activities every week and for the most part it’s the same the whole year. They have tennis twice, swimming, gymnastics and piano. It helps that they are close in age and do same sports almost always at the same time.

I have issues with passports renewals. Our kids have multiple citizenships and it is a pain to remember to renew all passports every 3-5 years all at a different time. Also, school presentations and events are more unpredictable and those I have more issue with so it’s in our outlook.

I.e. on March 10th I note: "Larlo Notes" and in the comments put "pain in left leg, went away". or whatever. I find I have a really bad memory when doctors ask me how long something's been going on so it is useful to record it on the calendar.

That sounds great! Must you search these “larlo notes” by date 3/10? Or are they somehow captured in an easier to find fashion?
