Thank you! This was an excellent video and helped me and my family out a lot

Incredibly simple explanation and a game changer :)

Love your ideas! I am looking forward toward trying them!

I am right now implementing your system for my family. It is really a game changer! The simplicity just tops everything else on the market!

Amazing! Feel like i hit some weights! Powerful tool. Just had our first kiddo and a shared calendar would be helpful. Thanks for a great video, editing, concise messages, upbeat!

Great content! We have a Skylight Calendar coming next week and looking for ways to organize Google calendars for me, my wife and our 5 kids!

I AM WITH YOU! I don’t like cooking either so I started… buying meal preps from a local place near me… and guess what!? IT IS THE SAME PRICE of what my grocery bill. All I now buy for groceries now is snacks like apples, oranges, etc.

Thanks!

Hi Sarah, excellent channel 👏 Congrats. You offer great tips for everyone. Hope you get caught by YT algorithm and blow up. It's very useful. I've been watching video after video non stop. Regarding your meal plan, amazing idea. You create it once and you are set. I've been dabbling with the idea of a week plan but the stress of having to do that every week was putting me off completely. Thought that a monthly plan would be crazy but you excel that even more. Great. Would you be open to share it? It would be a great start for my own plan and I can say I'm not the only one thinking about it as an argument in favour 😀. Thanks either way 😊

I find it a pain to handle tasks using the Google Calendar this way. Why can't they add shared tasks as a function.

Awesome info. Total cutie too

Thank you

Hi Sarah. Thanks for great content. 1) How would you handle if both teenagers have a lot of events together (homeschooled stuff) and I would like them both to be aware? Do I need to individually create the events under each of their calendars? 2) How do I schedule an apt under my son's calendar? Thanks a 1M.

Could you review how well the Echo Show 15 works as a family calendar? I really really want to go to google calendar and get digital but I can't get away from a large jumbo wall calendar.

OK I don't know if anyone reads these at this point but, WTF is a chicken pillow? Why did no one ask this till now? I stopped the video and started looking up recipes. I still don't think I know. Sounds awesome!

This is some great adjust to manage family to dos and anxiety with staying organized. Question: How do you rotate the 5 weeks of menus you have built inside the calendar. Do you set the meal to just run 5 weeks later? Maybe you have a video that speaks into this?

yeah, the easiest is to set up recurring appointment every x weeks. Add event. Repeat. Custom. Repeat every x weeks.

Omg…I love your content. I didn’t know about subscribing to the school calendars. Can you do a demo of how to create the type of calendars you spoke about? Thank you!!! Your info is such a great help!

@@FamilyTech wonderful! Thanks for being so accommodating! Appreciate all your help!

Thank you for this video and all your organizational tips! I want to share Google calendar with my husband but would love to have a notification when he adds something in. Do you know if there's an option that allows it? Thank you in advance if you or anyone reading this know how to do that ! I will definitely check your ether videos !

I understand how to share it but once shared how to the others access and put their info on it?

Hi! just found your channel and becoming a fan! From Norway here. I am going to start using google calendar for myself and my family after watching your videos. I have a couple of questions I hope you could answer: 1) We are a family of 3, where my son is only 1,5 years old. Would you have a separate calendar for him already? Or just includes his activities etc in the "Common" calendar. 2) Is it possible to rearrange the order/sequence of the different google calendars? Or is it stuck by alphabetic?

I'm *shocked* that this video doesn't have more views!

Once you get google calendars set up for the family, How do you synch them to the iPhones?

So neat! working on setting this up for using on my Hearth.... is the meal plan calendar on it's own gmail account/calendar account, or a different calendar on your account?

Just a different calendar on my account

I set up the family link for my 7 year old and all of his sports and school events etc but my "family" calendar events won't show up in his google calendar... Any solution?? Also, I noticed that his google calendar doesn't have a family folder...

Do you offer your meal plan and shopping lists for purchase?

I shared my calendar to my dad's but I dont see his stuff and he doesnt see mine. I set his permissions to be able to view and change things as necessary. The system just seems very overly complicated.

Hi Sarah, would you be willing to share your children's google routine? I'm interested to learn more about that

🥰

Hey Sarah, I really like the Google Calendar but I don't have access to all the sharing options. All the sharing options are greyed out. Make changes to events and make changes and manage sharing options are not available for my wife. How do I give my wife full access so she can make any changes she wants. We both want to be able to make changes and edit our Google Calendar. Thanks for much :)

yes cooking does give me anxiety lol

I have a calendar that's been unchecked on the web version. I just checked it and it still isn't showing up in the mobile app.

The checkmarks would have nothing to do with the mobile app. Generally you would also need to checkmark it on the mobile app as well. The checkmarks on the web just control the web display (meaning which calendars you are currently viewing on the web)

I like cooking for people who aren't picky. . . which rules out most of my kids. 😅

How did you set up the routine calendar?

@FamilyTech

I just enter recurring events that outline my day.

Why when I add another calendar it goes to other calendars instead of my calendar’s?

Are you creating a new calendar or are you subscribing to a calendar (like a school or a sports calendar)

How do you subscribe to a sports calendar and have it show up on the family calendar? Subscribing only puts it on my personal calendar

@FamilyTech

Calendars you subscribe to would only show up on your own calendar. You would need to subscribe to the calendar on every one's account in your family.

@@FamilyTech This is the most frustrating issue for me with shared google calendars. There are so many helpful subscription calendars available today (calendars which are automatically updated, not a file which just adds static appointments) like sports, school and club calendars. With three kids in sports, having changes to practice or game locations automatically updated is such a time saver. But requiring each member to subscribe is also a pain. Something inevitably goes wrong, whether they didn't display the calendar appropriately or plainly just never subscribed (or, like my mother, don't know where to begin). It would be so much easier to have an administrator like account that can make subscribed calendars available to other members. Are you aware of a Power Automate flow or other resource that can help with this?

PLEASE help!! I watched the video and have my calendars set up. They will not transfer to my husbands phone or google account on the computer. I have added him in the section you showed us and the sync button is on. PLEASE HELP

They are not showing on his Google account. But when he puts something on his calendar it shows up on mine. Thank you so much for replying! I am at my wits ends lol

I don't understand why the kids need their own calendars / google calendars instead of just creating a calendar with their name (and then subscribing the children to that).

5:40 all that talking

Lots of ideas; no instructions. Not helpful at all.

Took 7min to get to the bloody point
