A conceptual paper on kids daily planner as a tool in managing children’s daily activity

Abstract

Kids daily planner includes activities throughout the day that can be a guide for children. Among them are daily activities from morning to noon, from noon to evening and evening to at night. Therefore, this planner is divided into several sections according to daily activities at a predetermined time. For example, the planner for the activities from evening to night during weekdays will start with sport activity, taking bath, prayer, dinner, doing schoolwork, packing the school bag, brushing teeth and going to bed.  By looking at this planner, children will do their activities as directed in the planner without supervision by their parents.  Indirectly, the Kids daily planner acts as a guide for children to become independent and self-confident. Besides that, children will become more disciplined and organized in managing daily activities without parental guidance.  For busy parents, the Kids daily planner will be a useful resource in educating their children to manage time with beneficial activities. In addition, with the Kids daily planner, parents do not have to worry about directing their children's activities all the time because their children can follow the instructed picture planner by themselves. This study also discusses on Theory Planned Behaviour and how TPB can influence the parents to utilize this Kids daily planner.
