I really love the idea and concept behind the Mighty + Bright calendar system—it’s helped bring structure and routine to our household in a very visual, kid-friendly way. The encouragement in the FAQ to get one calendar per child makes sense, and the bundle with two weekly calendars and a task chart is a great starting point.
However, there are some issues that I hope the company will improve on. One of the biggest frustrations is with the sticker packs. There are many unnecessary duplicates—sometimes four of the same sticker—while there are not enough duplicates of stickers that would be helpful when two kids have the same activity (like a zoo trip). For a system that encourages a calendar per child, it doesn’t quite support that setup in practice.
It would be amazing if customers could build their own sticker sets to better match their family’s actual needs. Some of the pre-made bundles are great, but after ordering ours, I realized that about a third of the stickers aren’t relevant for us. Even including more generic images on stickers that allow us to write in our own activities would be a big help—especially to make things feel more fun for kids than just using handwritten labels.
Also, a quick heads-up: the steel calendars have very strong magnets. While that’s great for staying put, there’s no warning about using them on delicate surfaces. We followed the promotional images and placed ours on our stainless steel fridge—unfortunately, removing them left scratches. A simple note in the packaging would be a helpful addition.
Overall, I love what Mighty + Bright is doing, and with a few thoughtful adjustments, this system could be even more family-friendly and customizable.
