Household Notebook Printables
Each family’s home management binder will be unique, just like each family is unique. However, there are some common parts of most organized family’s homemaking notebook.
Below is a pretty detailed list of items which could go into your household notebook. Not all of them need to, of course, and not all of them need to be created at once. In addition, if you actually were to put all these things in one notebook it would be huge and unwieldy. So these are just suggestions.
You pick and choose the ones that will actually help your family and home! There are also some resources on this site which can help you create your homemaking notebook, including a whole section of printables that you can use, as is, or tweak to fit your needs.( most of the Printables are freely available on the net , I have been using these printable for years ,I don’t remember which site it is though).

I will provide you with practical knowledge of how to build habits and routines which are the Pillars of home management.
After all, you are learning to be a manager of your household, so you need a household to manage.
Everyone is capable of being an effective home manager, whether full time or part time in your family.
And every family can learn to work together to keep their home a happy place to live in.
The busier you and your family are, because of work, school, or family size, the more important it is for you to learn household management skills.
Home management allows you to enjoy your home and family. Isn’t that what we all want?
P.S. I still have a lot of documents that need to be uploaded, I will do it by next few days . so please bear with me !!
Please suggest a way, that I can decide on weekly menu. breakfast, lunch and dinner.
And also, suggest a way, in which I come to know when the rice, or particular dal is getting finished. I go to grocery store twice a month, but sometimes I miss out on one or two items and I realize later.
Also I have two refrigerators, one I use for daily use and other for storage. At times I totally forget what did I store. I use label for most of my storage boxes, but there are so many powders and spices I have, which hardly is used.
Sorry to have bothered you with so many questions, but I am hoping that in your upcoming posts, these topics are covered. Thank you so much in advance. I must say, with your help, and printables, I have brought some organization into my home chores. you have made the work easy!
