How to Use a Memory Keeping Planner to Capture Everyday Moments
As moms, our days are filled to the brim. Between school drop-offs, meal planning, appointments, and endless to-do lists, it can feel like life is rushing by in a blur. And while the big milestones — birthdays, holidays, vacations — often get the spotlight, it’s the small, everyday moments that make up the heart of our family’s story.
That’s why I created the Captured Memories Planner — a memory keeping planner designed to not only help you stay organized, but also to give you a simple way to celebrate and record the little things you don’t want to forget.
If you’ve ever wondered how to use a memory keeping planner in your daily life, here are some simple steps to get started:
Step 1: Organize Your Weekly Layout
Each week begins with space for your schedule and to-dos. Use it just like any other planner — write down appointments, track activities, and make your daily task lists. The flexible sections are perfect for organizing by child, category, or whatever matters most to you.
💡 Tip: Assign each customizable section to something different — like one for each child, one for work, or one for personal goals. This way, everything important has its own space without getting lost in the shuffle.
Step 2: Print and Add Photos Along the Way
One of the best parts of using a memory keeping planner is adding photos. With the included Liene Bluetooth photo printer, you can quickly print pictures straight from your phone. Slip in a silly selfie from the carpool line, a snapshot of the science project that took all week, or a sweet bedtime cuddle moment.
💡 Don’t wait for perfect photos. The everyday snapshots are the ones you’ll treasure most later.
Step 3: Decorate With Stickers and Notes
Each monthly subscription box comes with themed stickers, washi tape, colorful pens, and fun supplies that make it easy to personalize your planner. Use them to highlight special days or just add a pop of creativity to your weekly pages.
Add quick notes or captions next to your photos:
-
“First soccer goal!”
-
“Funny joke at dinner.”
-
“Needed three cups of coffee to survive this Monday.”
These little details bring your planner to life.
Step 4: Reflect at the End of the Week
Before starting a new week, take a few minutes to flip back through your pages. What made you smile? What challenged you? What little victories did you celebrate? Jot down a thought or two. Over time, your memory keeping planner becomes a diary of your family’s journey...not just a schedule.
Why Use a Memory Keeping Planner?
When you use your planner this way, it becomes more than just a calendar. It transforms into a keepsake — a living scrapbook of your family’s story, captured in real time.
Years from now, you won’t just see the soccer practice schedules and grocery lists, you’ll see the messy, beautiful, everyday moments that made up your life.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not about having a “perfect” planner.
It’s about remembering the moments that mattered most.
