I am so excited to share my system for packing kids' lunches for the whole week all at once. This system is really helpful to give kids more responsibility and helping parents to have one less thing on their plate during the week.

Today we're going to dive in to monthly meal planning. We're going to talk about how to easily write a meal plan for the whole month, and how to stick to it. Having a dinner menu plan eliminates the panicked feeling you get when it's almost dinner time. Menu planning is actually a ministry to your family because it creates space for more family time, more money for family activities, and more peace during an already tense time of day.

Making Family Meeting fun doesn't have to take a lot of prep work, be costly, or even take a lot of energy. Today we get to put the "sprinkles" on Family Meeting.

We will get cooking together, and spend a little time creating space for a family dinner.

No matter what your goal is for Family Meeting, you're likely going to want the things you talk about and implement to spill over to the rest of the week. Today we'll get into the specifics of writing SMART goals, a clear agenda, jobs, and rules for your time together as a family.

Implementing a Family Meeting takes some behind-the-scenes prep work. Today we go through some steps to get ready for the first Family Meeting.

Just a little bit about me and Sparrow Ministries. Listen to learn what it's all about!
