Ask any mum or dad: it can be just as tricky for parents to adjust to the pressures of sending children back-to-school as it is for kids! With so much to do and organise, parents often struggle with stressful preparation as the summer holidays draw to a close. With this in mind, a UK company which specialises in organisation has launched Journl www.journl.com, a new online personal organiser service to make it easy for parents to make sure that they’re all set for September as an estimated 10 million children go back to school.
Not only can Journl make the hectic back to school time so much easier but it can help organise Christmas too!
Online life organiser, Journl, offers a helping hand with super handy Christmas features, plus some top tips to keep kids happy during the Christmas rush
We all love the magic of Christmas, but the run-up to it can be a really stressful time for everyone, including young children, who often find the business and changes in routine difficult. The best way to keep kids calm at this busy time is to avoid getting too stressed yourself, according to organisational experts, Journl, who have just added super helpful Christmas specific planning features to their popular online organiser service, www.journl.com.
Journl features to-do lists, diary reminders, online storage for important files and more, all working together to keep your life on track. 
The new Christmas features are set to make this festive season the most stress free yet and include a handy Meal Planner to help you keep on top of the grocery shopping and will even remind you when to defrost the turkey. The new Party Planner will help you to keep tabs on guests and schedules for each event and the Christmas Card List feature keeps a record of cards sent and received.
Avoid over-spending with the new Gift Budget Planner and teach kids how to write thank you notes with the help of Journl’s new Gift Inventory feature which keeps track of what you’re giving and receiving. Journl lets you set Weekly Reminders so you can highlight priorities as you get closer to the big day, and the To Do List allows you to add last minute actions whenever and wherever you are – even while you’re dashing round the supermarket or in the queue for Santa’s grotto. Best of all – everything will be saved and ready in your Journl to reuse next year!
Timing is everything with children, so once you’re organised, you can pack out the rest of your calendar with fun activities to ensure you and your child get to enjoy the magic of the season, stress free.
