Cozi
Friday, September 12th, 2008I have been having a lot of fun checking out and reviewing this site! Cozi offers families a way to connect in one central place to share information, schedules and more. Completely private this site can definitely become a mom’s best friend. Since we are definitely in the middle of our craziest time of the year as a family, I can sincerely say that is has been wonderful to use this site.
I was asked by Hybrid Mom Bloggers Network to review Cozi and I’m so glad I took them up on it! Making mom’s life easier is something I’m always on board for. The immediate benefits I could see with this site (besides the privacy) is that my husband can access our family calendar from anywhere he has internet access. So if he has a meeting that might conflict with one of the boys’ schedules, he knows what’s going on and to let me know. Allowing him to be able to work around a schedule is only the beginning.
Trying to schedule 6 boys and their various sports, appointments and other needs can be complicated even with a great calendar at home. Add to that the occasional appointments and other events for my Hubby and I and you could have pure pandemonium if you aren’t careful! So, using a system like this truly does make life a lot easier. Smaller busy families will benefit just as much, especially families with teens.
I think it’s great that the entire family can have access to this calendar. For parents of teens I see it as a great way to have better communication as a family. They have access to the entire family calendar and can see at a glance even simple planned things … for instance Family Night???? So, if a friend asks if they can hang out or do something with them on a certain night, they can know what to say without always having to bug mom or dad about an already scheduled day! How nice.
Anyway, I encourage all of you to try it out even just to see what it’s like. Did I mention it’s Free???? Ok, so there went your last excuse ……
