Hi Ashley
Thanks so much for this awesome planner – it’s so generous of you to offer it as a free download.
I do have a problem with the editing though. I have downloaded the KG Fonts pack and I can edit the name on the folder cover, but it does not give me the option to change the font or to make it smaller. I cannot get half my name on it as the font is way too big and with Ilse, the capital I (i) looks like a small “l”, so it just looks like two “L”s next to each other. 🙂
How can I change the font type or size please?
Thanks, Ilse
Hi Ilse,
Thanks for reaching out. Please check to be sure you are editing in Adobe Reader, and are editing on a desktop or laptop. It does not work the same on a mobile device. If you’re in Adobe, the font should automatically adjust to fit.
If you’re still having problems you can email me at hello@www.playdoughtoplato.com

This is great! Can you tell me the name of the font used for the areas you can edit? I downloaded the font pack and I’d like to add some pages that are a little more custom and that would save me looking through all the fonts!! Thank you!
I found the font right after I submitted my comment!
Okay, perfect!
Hope you enjoy 🙂

I absolutely LOVE this planner. We are getting ready to wrap up the 19-20 school year and was wondering if you will be updating for 20-21 year so I don’t have to go looking again.
Hi Allison,
Yes! Malia usually updates it in June 🙂

Ashley // Happiness Ambassador
Is it too soon to ask for 20-21 year update? hahaha I’m an administrator and I want to give it to my team and I need to start printing it, pretty please?
Hi Alejandra,
It is on Malia’s to-do list, but we’ve been working hard to get resources to teachers as quickly as possible during this time, so some projects have been put on hold. It will be coming soon though!
Warmly,
Ashley // Happiness Ambassador
Hi Alejandra,
Actually, Malia just finished the updates today.
You can download the 20-21 version now!
Enjoy!

Is there a way for next year, the student checklists can have at least 20 on a page? I LOVE this planner and even print multiple copies for different parts of my life. I have been using the components and features for at least 3 years now.
So glad you enjoy it Sarah!
I’ll pass on the request.

Hello, I like your plan book pages. I am going back into the classroom after 10 years and was looking for one and yours in perfect. Will you be updating the calendar pages for the 2020-21 school year? Thank you! 🙂
Hi Loralee,
Congratulations on returning to the classroom.
Yes! The planner will be updated in the next month or so.

This is very nice, but I like the colored planner better. Are there any way I can change the color?
Hi Karen,
The color option is still available, but you can’t change the colors.
