Summer shakes things up in the best way, but it can also leave routines a little scattered.
One day you’re wrapping up the school year, the next you’re stepping over pool towels, answering snack requests, and figuring out dinner on the fly.
If you’re craving a little more structure, these 10 printables cover everything from bill organization to summer plans, so things feel lighter and a lot more manageable!
1. A monthly planner
A monthly planner might not scream summer fun, but it’s surprisingly helpful when the days start to blur together.
Use it to map out appointments, road trips, vacations, camps, and anything else summer throws your way. It’s so nice to see the whole month laid out in one spot, especially when every week looks a little different.
I’ve shared 30 undated monthly planner templates here. Some have extra sections for your goals and to-do list!
2. A Cute Summer Calendar for the Fridge
A basic calendar on the fridge helps everyone in the family stay in the loop.
If you need a cute one, I just added new June calendar printables to kick things off. You can also find my minimalist calendars here.
3. Summer Bucket List
Have the kids jot down fun ideas so you’re not scrambling for something to do last-minute. I have a few free summer bucket list you can grab (with 42 activity ideas).
4. Daily Checklist or Chore Chart
A simple chore chart can turn “Can someone please help?” into “What’s next on my list?”
When everyone has a role, it feels more like teamwork than nagging. These printable chore charts make it easy to get the kids involved and keep things running smoothly around the house.
5. Simple Weekly Calendar/Planner
Are you looking for just enough structure to feel calm and intentional without feeling locked into a rigid plan?

6. Favorite Meals Tracker
Keeping a running list of your family’s favorite meals makes those last-minute dinner decisions so much easier. No overthinking. No scrolling for recipes. Just meals you already know your crew will eat.
I have a few simple templates to help you track your go-to summer dinners, lunches, and even snacks, so you always have ideas ready to go.
7. Meal Planner
Take it a step further with a weekly meal planner.
You don’t have to map out every single meal.
Even having dinners figured out ahead of time saves so much time and energy (and cuts down on last-minute takeout). Try one of these printable weekly meal planners.

8. Summer Reading Log
If you’re encouraging more reading time this summer, these printable reading logs help track pages, books, or minutes read.
There’s even a space for a reward if that helps motivate.
9. Habit Tracker
Summer can throw off even the best habits, but a simple tracker can help you maintain that consistency.
I’ve designed a few free habit trackers you can print to build consistency with things like drinking more water or anything else you have in mind.
10. Bill Calendar
Summer gets busy, but the bills still roll in. These summer-themed bill calendars keep everything in one place, and they’re fun to color too!
Grab one for June, July, and August.
Want something that pulls all of this together? I also created a 2025 Summer Planner with over 30 pages you can download all at once.
You’ll find everything from chore charts and calendars to a screen time rules checklist, so you’re not piecing it all together on your own.
There are also fun extras like a summer movie list, boredom buster ideas, a page for jotting down summer favorites, photo ideas, and more!
