Plan the family's week in one shared view

When to use it
Every Sunday evening
Step by step
Create a shared family calendar
In Google Calendar, create a new calendar called Family and share it with the other adults in the household. Add clubs, appointments and work trips as recurring events.
Copy next week's events
On Sunday, open the Family calendar in week view and copy the events, or take a screenshot.
Ask for a family plan
Paste or attach next week's events in your AI assistant with this prompt.
Prompt to copyHere's our family calendar for next week. Household: [for example 2 adults (A and B), children aged 7 and 11]. For each day, list: who needs to be where and when, who is doing drop-off and pick-up (flag any day where nobody is assigned or two things clash), and anything to prepare the night before (kit, forms, money, packed lunch). End with a short list of clashes to sort and a shopping or prep list for the week. Format it to fit nicely in a WhatsApp message.Share it
Post the plan in your family WhatsApp group and sort out any clashes together.

Tips
- Use initials rather than full names and avoid sharing school names with the AI.
- Colour-code each person's events in the calendar so clashes are easier to spot.
