[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dumb technology question. In the spring I would always be able to remind them "5 minutes until your zoom starts", for example. But I won't be able to do that in the fall. Since they may need several similar reminders during the day, just setting a regular timer won't help . What can I use to schedule alarms that specify "Larla's math zoom" or "Larlo's reading group" etc. [/quote] Amazon's Alexa can do this.[/quote] But she can (and does) also listen to everything in your household. I’m not even allowed to have one of those or similar devices due to my job (lawyer——attorney-client privilege etc)[/quote] We can't use Alexa for privacy reasons as well. We set up a Gmail family address and made a Google calendar, color coded for each kid. Kids (second grade and fourth) can update it themselves and set recurring appointments.[/quote]
