My daughter is 13 and we went to the thrift store to buy her leggings for school. Apparently, jeans are no longer acceptable to wear in middle school. haha. At least here; is it like that where you’re at??? I’m curious if it’s just a local thing or all over?
She’s super into space and galaxy designs right now. Seems to be pretty popular online too. She found a pair of galaxy leggings this weekend and started dancing and getting SUPER excited in the store when she found them!
It was really cool to see her so happy, especially since becoming a teen, she’s gotten pretty moody. One minute sad, one minute happy. Wow. Part of growing up I guess but it’s definitely something different I’m trying to adjust to (any tips on that? I’m all ears!) 🙂
We celebrated her find by creating this cool free printable weekly planner that is galaxy themed! It’s out of this world! Had to throw that one in! haha.
Galaxy Printable Weekly Planner
She helped design the bookmarks and chose the stars and where to place them. She chose the designs for the blank post-it notes as well.
Everything I’ve done in my working online has ALWAYS INCLUDED my family.
So many people ask me how I get so much done, how I accomplish so much. They wonder what I do with my kids while I work.
What do you mean? They are involved WITH me. 🙂 <3
Whether I’m creating a printable template, working on a course, writing a newsletter, whatever I’m doing, they are helping: giving advice, picking designs, telling me if one thing or another will engage with you guys more, helping me know what sales to run, etc.
They are so much a part of the blog and I think it’s important as a business woman online. If you run a business you want to INCLUDE your family!
One day I DREAM of having a husband and we’ll work TOGETHER on the blog. Maybe he’ll start his own blog, I don’t know.
But I do think it’s important that your family is involved in what you do. If they are not, it won’t be as fun and you may get bored and fizzle out. You definitely don’t want to have to pick between your work and your family. That’s never good.
Posts like this are so vital to this blog, they are so important to ME because, I get to work with my kids on something we enjoy doing, all WHILE serving the world.
Maybe these weekly planners will help you or your kids be more organized.
Maybe it’ll help them get their homework done in a more organized and efficient way.
Maybe it’ll help you on your blog or in your life.
If we can do something that helps other people and we do it as a family, that’s huge. It’s a massive impact and it’s teaching the kids to serve at a young age (my daughter wants to be a YouTuber Blogger when she grows up…booyah!)
I remember when I first started working from home full-time and my kids were right there. We’d sell clothes on ebay, list stuff on Craigslist, and they’d be right there, helping sort clothes, etc.
They were just babies then, but growing them up in that helping family type of way has really helped shape them into who they are today, so I highly encourage you, whatever you do, do it WITH your family. Don’t separate work and family. The two are interchangeable with each other. Family and work, always TOGETHER!
This weekly planner can be used as a meal planner, to-do list, the kid’s homework schedule, etc.
The possibilities are endless! It can help in SOOO many ways!
These galaxy free printables also come with a memo pad (post-it notes) and bookmarks to make this set simply OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD. 😉
Speaking of cool galaxy printables…
A few months ago, my daughter asked me if she could learn how to create printable pages, and needless to say, I was thrilled. I set her up with my How to Create Printables course and she created her VERY FIRST printable, just going based on the course.
Even though she was nervous to share it to the world, it was a hit. I thought the Show Your Inner Unicorn Printable would be a great addition to the galaxy weekly planner.
Isn’t it super cute!? She did such a good job! You can grab that wall art printable here.
You can download the full galaxy weekly planner set below…

I hope you enjoy these printables as much as I did creating them with my daughter!

Yes, definitely is. 🙂

Absolutely! So glad she likes them, Anne. <3
Larisa Rachkovskiy says
I have boys, and they REFUSE to wear jeans, lol! I don’t think it’s a style thing for them though, I think it’s just a comfort thing. Jeans restrict. They like freedom.
Cute printables!
Sarah Titus says
Gotcha. Definitely understand that. 🙂
Rebecca Salzer says

Kristin says
My son is all about galaxy print right now. Thanks for this. And I love that you got your daughter set up to start her own business. Very cool!
Sarah Titus says
Yeah, she really wants to. I know she’ll rock at it. My son wants to be a computer tech. Daughter wants to blog and do YouTube and sell printables like her mama 🙂 so now, I just need a husband who wants to help on the blog and do marketing/FB ads and stuff. haha. 🙂 Then, we’ll be a bloggin’ family! <3 haha.
Kristin says
Haha, that’d be cool! I wish my hubby would get onboard the blog train & help me… he’s a techie!
Natasha says
These are lovely! I appreciate that you talk about working with your children. My daughter is only 2, but I still try to explain what I’m doing and include her whenever possible.
Sarah Titus says
That’s so cool you include her. Yes, absolutely do it from the beginning. 🙂
Marti Holman says
I love reading how you include your family in everything. Our family is the same way and we do everything possible together. It makes us closer and gives us and the kids memories for the years to come.
Sarah Titus says
Yes, yes, yes!!! Love that you are doing that too. It really does help bring you closer together. That’s so true. <3
Jaime Wiebel says
This is so cute. My son’s school got rid of the planners this year. UGH. So I created him one with his favorite sports team on it. I wish I would have found this sooner I think he would have liked it and it would have saved me a ton of time. 😉
Rita says
I also work with my family and we love it. I worked a 9-5 for many years and dreamt of the day I could work from home. I prayed about it and God made a way. Thank you for your ministry. It is a blessing to see someone so open about their faith and where their blessings come from.
Sarah Titus says
That’s so awesome God made a way for you to work from home. It’s such a genuine blessing. SOOO happy for you! YAY!!!
LeeAnna Adkins says
You are just the best and I could stay on your website all day long just thinking up all the things I can use your printable and planners for!
Sarah Titus says
Aww, you are so sweet, LeeAnna. So glad you like everything. 🙂
Shannon Johnson says
These are amazing! I love the unicorn print your daughter did – I love everything unicorns! lol I plan on using these to write down ideas for meals, and planning our move in January. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with the rest of us. God bless.
Sarah Titus says
Ah, so glad you like them! Great idea to use them for meals. It’s small enough to fit on the fridge! 🙂
Veronica @ Better Fit Habits says
Cute printables! Gotta download them when I get home from work.
Kayleigh Rabe says
This looks amazing! I can’t wait to print these out and start using them!
Sarah Titus says
That’s great, enjoy! 🙂
Denise says
Thank you for sharing and encouraging family to work together. I usually sit by and read so many things and don’t comment. I am also nervous to but any of my work out there. We as a family want to work to help others. We together helped our 15 year old through a Childhood Cancer battle. His dream was to start a foundation to help others. His dream for me was to write his story. We gained his angel wings at 16. I want to continue his dream for his family. I am working up the courage to do just that.
Have a blessed day.
Sarah Titus says
I think something like that can help a lot of people and you should definitely pursue it for many reasons but especially since it’s your son’s dream as well. Definitely, DEFINITELY honor that. <3
Kristin says
Me and my daughter love this weekly galaxy planner! It helps her stay organized and remember what to do for the week and it doesn’t hurt that it’s her favorite design right now! Thank you so much Sarah, you’re always creating such amazing products!!
Sarah Titus says
Awww, thank you. I’m so happy you said that I’m always creating amazing products. That makes me feel so good! 🙂 <3 So glad you guys like it!
Mischa Bettis says
Sarah,
I love this set of Galactic printables. I think they give all of us a little reminder to Shoot for the Stars! The fact that they’re absolutely beautiful makes it even better!
As for your daughter, that’s a tough age to be. Oftentimes they can’t tell you why they’re moody, happy as a clam (where did that saying come from, anyway), or laughing uncontrollably. Because. They. Don’t. Know!!! Biology has their hormones twisting them into pretzel knots. Just be you, Mama, and keep looking for those ways to connect, laugh and love on her. That’s all she wants, even when she’s moody.
Sarah Titus says
Great thoughts, Mischa. Thank you. <3
Maria says
Fantastic work as always!
Sheri Prest-Herman says
What a fun planner! I love that you involve your family! I have 3 grand daughters (11, 8, 7) but I’m not sure how I would involve them at the different levels they are at. I love them a LOT but get overwhelmed by them too. (They live with me and I home school them.) I’d love to hear if you have any suggestions.
Robin | Haphazardhomemaker says
Hi, Sarah, you have the prettiest and most creative printables! I love seeing what you come up with next.
I also love how generous you are offering free printables and coloring pages. Thank you for sharing with your readers. You site is one of my favorites!
Sarah Titus says
Aww, thank you, Robin. So glad you like the site so much. I LOVE making printables. It relaxes me. I’m just so glad others like what makes me happy! haha. 🙂
Cinthia Shelton says
My daughter loves anything Galaxy, she even dyed her hair galaxy colors at one point, so she’ll LOVE these when I show her. Thank you always for sharing so much of yourself with us. It always keeps me enthralled! 🙂
My daughter was super moody at that age and we had our moments of clashing but I simply held on and let her know that I was going to be there for her no matter what and that I think helped make a difference when the hormones subsided a little. She wanted to be heard, and I made sure I listened and now we have a very close relationship! Just hang in there, it’s all worth it and listen and love as only you can for your little ones! 🙂
Sarah Titus says
Great advice! Definitely holding on and showing I’m there. When she’s cranky, I’ll go and hug her. Sometimes, I make her, but, it’s okay. haha. I’m gonna love you no matter what type of thing. I get it for sure. 🙂
Lorie Anderson says
My little daughter is loving these planners! We are using them for her little homeschool assignments! Thank you!! ❤️
Sarah Titus says
Absolutely! <3 So glad your daughter is loving them! 🙂
Alice says
I love that your daughter wanted to create her own printable, she did such a great job! I use Canva for my free printables on my website and one day my 12-year-old asked if she could create her own account and try to make something for her room. I felt like she was trying to be like mom which made my heart melt! I love your designs!
Sarah Titus says
That’s so cool your daughter wanted to create some too! They are SO fun! <3 Canva is totally fine for things like blogs. If you ever do get into selling printables, you'll want to only use professional software, but for free posts, etc. you guys are totally fine using Canva. 🙂
