Me in a Tree Can Organize Your Family

I grew up in a family where we didn't have family meetings, as a child I had no say in anything that concerned my family. While my parents were kind and fair, they didn't communicate with me. When I became a parent I realized that I was going to do something my parents didn't do much of. I was going to talk to my kid. I was going to know what was going on in his life and fill him in on my life too. Many times my parents would be annoyed with me when I reminded them of an after school event I needed to be picked up from, as I sat at school waiting for them, forgotten again.

I am now equipped to make my plans of parenting with communication and organization a reality. I just got to try out a great site called Me in a Tree. This site is a really great interactive family calendar that can really organize your life.

I liked that this site enables me to keep track of memorable dates, appointments and activities and family chores. The site was fun to explore, and it made staying on top of the happenings of my busy family enjoyable when compared to using a plain old datebook, or notepad.

My favorite feature is the Family Huddle Time, which allows you the chance to have a family meeting mixed in with family fun. The characters give you challenges that are fun for the whole family. I also liked the journal feature. I found this to be a nice way to record special moments with my family that I can share with them. My son is too young to journal really, but this was a fun way to record his favorite parts of a day and he was interested in the colorful site and the fun characters.

Me in a Tree will help you connect with your family while improving communication skills and resolving problems that the family encounters during the weekly Family Huddle Time. You can start a free 2 week trial of the site, no credit card required by visiting Me in a Tree.
