When The Happy Planner® came out with a Happy Planner KIDS™ I was so excited, but when I saw there were planners designed with boys in mind I was even more ecstatic! As a #plannerbabe and a mom of two boys, it thrilled me to see that The Happy Planner® thought of ALL kids. I promptly purchased two of The Happy Planner KIDS™ "Cool Dude" sets and presented them to my boys. I wasn't sure if they'd be interested, but I was pleasantly surprised at how excited they were! They wanted to dig right in! They read every sticker, flipped through every divider, and checked out every part of their new planners. 

Hi, I'm Mary Ellen! I just began planning in January of 2018 and I can't get enough. The Happy Planner® has literally changed my life in such a positive way! I just started a YouTube channel (Planning with Bumble) and I'm having so much fun inspiring others by sharing what I create!

Sometimes life throws us curve balls and we don't even know where to begin to get back on track. In these times, I've always turned to planning to help me refocus. I am currently finding myself in a period of transition and I have a lot of choices to make. I have so many ideas floating around in my head and it's so helpful for me to get it all down on paper. It's time for some major goal setting...so I decided to create a 'LIFE GOALS' notebook! It will help me to reevaluate my life...figure out what I want my life to look like, what is currently moving me toward that and what is holding me back. I plan on working on this slowly and steadily throughout the next couple of years. I'm not going to push myself...I'm going to go at my own pace, work on one small goal at a time and break each goal down into manageable steps.

Budget planning can be stressful! I love to use bright colors and stickers to bring a little happiness while reviewing my budget. 

The Happy Planner®️ 'Budget Review' sheet, taken from the Budget - Extension Pack - Classic allows me to REVIEW where I went wrong the previous month, and ask myself 'how am I going to improve on my mistakes,' as well as set up new and/or improved GOALS for the upcoming month.
