Schedule Cards

I like structure and a schedule. :)  If you don't already know this about me, you probably don't know me at all.  If that's the case, I'm super happy you already found my blog!  :)  In kindergarten, the day goes so fast because we are constantly moving from one thing to the next.  I love our schedule, even though it is exhausting.  Being at home all day during the summer is a totally different kind of exhausting, and if I don't have a schedule, it is really easy for me to let cartoons go on forever, miss out on opportunities to have some quality outside fun (can I just get one bathroom cleaned!?) or not plan some structured learning time that both of my kids really love. 
I needed the schedule for myself but also wanted the boys to be able to follow along and know what to expect and look forward to each day.  I saw that a mom on Pinterest (it's like my google) had written her schedule out on poster board and cut it apart to make a movable magnetic schedule on her refrigerator.  My wheels started turning, and I immediately began searching for clipart that the boys could easily identify for everything we might do in a day.  I laminated and put magnets on the cards and couldn't wait to use them for our first day of break. Both kids referred to the schedule often and loved it, as well.
The picture I took of today's schedule was for our Saturday.  I did not include my school time card because it's a weekend, and I also have a card for "take a trip" which I will use on day trip days when I don't have much else to add to the schedule. 
Do you have a different schedule system in place?  Do you think your kids would benefit from having a visual schedule?
