Summer vacation: How to organize your summer plans so everyone has fun

No matter how big, or small, your family, everyone should get a vote. Call a family meeting and give everyone a few Post-it® Super Sticky Notes to help brainstorm ideas.

Once everyone's chosen ideas, get some materials – brochures, guidebooks, travel magazines – and use Post-it® Flags and to mark pages you need to refer to, or make notes in the margins with Post-it® Note Taking Tabs.

Just because it's summer doesn't mean the calendar isn't important. Noting the everyday schedule keeps everyone on track and keeps you from answering the same questions over and over again. When you mark big events, like vacations or trips, everyone knows when to get ready – and when to start getting excited!

Brainstorm things everyone can do at home on Post-it® Super Sticky Notes and stick them somewhere visible, like a door in the kitchen or an entryway wall. When someone complains about being bored (you included), they can go get an idea from the wall.
