Family Goal Book – A Family Fun Activity
As a school psychologist I was blessed to work with many families. I love helping people connect and reach their goals, so I created many family activities. One of them was a family goal book (download here)!
Have you completed a family goal book before?
Have you completed a family goal book before?For me personally setting goals helps keep me on track. I have so many things going on at once that I often forget some of the things I want to accomplish. Setting family goals can help you reconnect and focus your energy on a shared desire. Pick something you want to accomplish together. Some examples:
- Have a family game night once a week
- Eat dinner together 3 times a week
- Read 3 books together by the end of the month
- Plan a family vacation
On each page there is a place to write words and draw a picture. This helps young children stay involved if they can’t write well yet. Once you have completed the book, put it in a place where you will see it on a daily basis. In a month, look back at your goal book. Did you reach your goal? Talk about the steps you took to reach the goal and challenges you may have faced along the way.
The most important part of this activity is to have fun and enjoy time together. Don’t stress if you don’t accomplish your goal in the first week. Instead celebrate being together!

Thank you for sharing this! I found you from the link up and am so glad I hopped over. We are very intentional as a family but this is a GREAT idea and I am totally going to print it and share it with my husband.
Thanks!
