Dry Erase Marker
Free shipping over $59
I've been on the hunt for the world's best markers for the Mighty + Bright calendars, and Expo's Ultra Fine Dry Erase marker fits the bill for dry erase. It's fine enough to write on our magnets, doesn't dry out as easily as other dry erase pens, and doesn't smudge *quite* as easily.
We recommend three different pens for different use cases:
- Dry erase (this pen): for temporary, easy-to-erase appointments/notes. This can be easily wiped off (even accidentally).
- Wet erase: wet erase is a great middle ground between dry erase and Sharpie — it can easily be removed with a wet cloth, but won't smudge like dry erase.
- Sharpie: while considered "permanent," you can remove Sharpie with alcohol wipes or hand sanitizer. It's good for weekly appointments that stay the same each week. When writing on magnets, these aren't easily removed.

One black Expo Dry Erase, Ultra Fine Tip, Low Odor Marker. Wipes off easily and doesn't leave behind a "ghost" image.
Great
This has been great modeling for my young one and gives us a way to both make sure we are checking off tasks.
This system has been great for our family! I keep finding more items to order. It’s so much fun and helps us all stay organized!
This system has been working so well for my kids that I decided to buy more for my husband and me to have our daily chores on a centralized checklist. Our family has been having fun creating our schedules and checklists with the cute reusable stickers and magnets. Such a great system! I highly recommend!
I wish I would have known about these visual tools sooner! I heard of M&B through KC Davis. I'm a SAHM (former teacher) and using these sets has been helpful in so many ways. It breaks down the overwhelming task of keeping house (especially with a full time toddler around) into smaller steps of your choosing. Instead of feeling like there's 1,000 things to do, there's only 14. On a day where you feel like you got nothing done, you can at least see, "Oh yeah, I did take out the trash, start the laundry, unload the dishwasher, provide snacks, etc." It really helps you visually track your progress, no matter if you complete the whole chart everyday or not (I don't).
The illustrations themselves are also so vibrant and joyful to look at, so it's proudly displayed on our fridge, and I really look forward to using it everyday. Thank you for the wide variety of stickers your offer! I purchased a separate chart for my toddler, and we use it to work our way through his AM/PM routines. He loves to use whatever mama is using! It is a pricey investment up front, but it is top notch quality and this will get years and years of use from our family.
As a Mom of two ADHD kids keeping them on track is a daily challenge. The task bracelet and visual checklists are a game changer. Could you make this yourself? Of course but who has time for that? It's a well made product that is worth the money.
As a mom, anyway I can support my children through the hard is a win for me. This is creative, and the colors are soft. My children has had less moments of big emotion and I can tell this tool not only helps her know who what when where but also the Sunday night planning is a great bonding moment for her and I.
I also purchased the routine set, which honestly I need to be using also. Very pleased, heard of this on the How Not to Suck at Divorce podcast. Thank you all!!! 🖤
Really helps around the house!
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.
Having these charts and stickers in our home helps us stay organized and keeps us talking about how to divide our responsibilities. It feels like we’re on the same team!
