In
1993, Deborah Barkhouse, a busy mother of three young children,
searched everywhere for a calendar with lots of writing room to help
her organize her busy family schedule. She soon discovered that
no company in Canada made them. So she decided to make her own!
MotherWord Inc. printed the very first family calendar in Canada in
1994. This school year calendar has been a lifesaver for busy
families across Canada. Now, instead of sticking a reminder note
on the fridge, parents stick Mom's “Ultimate Family Fridge Calendar”
there instead. Parents and kids can see an entire month worth of
activities at a glance!
