Skylight Digital Wall Calendar

Here you'll find the touchscreen calendar families use as a shared command center, plus the mounts, shields, styluses and power pieces that keep it readable. Compare by room, routine and how much your kids take part before choosing.
Start the setup

The calendar and the pieces it needs first

These three start the setup: the touchscreen calendar itself, a plate to hang it flat, and a clear shield for the glass. Together they cover the core display and the two things families usually fix first, placement and screen care.

Skylight Calendar — Touchscreen Family Calendar with App Sync, Chores and Meal Planning

Busy families get one large touchscreen where every calendar lands in a single view. It auto-syncs with popular calendar apps, so plans added on a phone appear on the wall. Beyond scheduling, it manages tasks and meal planning, keeping after-school runs and weeknight dinners in one visible place.

Skylight Calendar Wall Mount Plate — Slim Bracket That Hangs Your Display Flat Like a Frame

A slim, sturdy plate lets the calendar hang flat against the wall like a framed picture. Cords tuck out of sight behind it, and the display sits at a comfortable viewing height in a hallway, kitchen or command corner. Choose it when floor and counter space are already spoken for and the schedule needs a permanent home.

Skylight Calendar Screen Shield — Clear Touchscreen Overlay That Fights Fingerprints and Splashes

A clear overlay guards the touchscreen against fingerprints, smudges and the occasional juice-box splash. It applies smoothly without bubbles, so the schedule stays easy to read for families who check it dozens of times a day. It is the practical pick for busy entryways, kitchens and any spot little hands reach for often.

Skylight Calendar Magnetic Chore Cards — Reusable Checks Kids Can Rearrange Every Week

Magnetic cards attach to the display area so kids can check off chores and routines as they happen, giving them a small, satisfying job they own. Wipe them clean and rearrange them week to week as the routine shifts. The whole household sees what’s done and what’s next without anyone needing to ask.
Round out the routine

Small additions that change daily use

Skylight Calendar Kids Stylus — Easy-Grip Pen That Lets Small Hands Tap, Tick and Add Their Names

Sized for small hands, the chunky easy-grip pen lets children tap their own calendars, tick off tasks and add their names to lists without leaning on the glass. It stores on the side of the display, ready for the morning check-in and back in place by bedtime. A simple way to give kids real ownership of the family schedule.

Skylight Calendar Family Chalk Label Pack — Writable Labels That Separate Everyone's Zones at a Glance

Peel-on, peel-off labels let you name each person’s color, list or zone around the display, so a busy parent can read the whole board at a glance. They come off cleanly when the arrangement changes, and you can rework them as the family does. Useful when several schedules share one screen and things start to blur.

Skylight Calendar Cord Cover Kit — Paintable Channel That Hides the Power Cable Along Baseboards

A paintable channel runs power neatly from the wall to the display, hiding the cable along a baseboard or doorway frame so the calendar looks like part of the room instead of a tangle of wires in a busy family space. Pick it for open hallways and kitchens where the cord would otherwise cross a walkway.

Skylight Calendar Tabletop Stand — Stable Easel Base for Counters, Sideboards and Desks

An easel-style stand suits families who would rather set the calendar on a kitchen counter, sideboard or desk than hang it. It tilts to a comfortable angle and stays stable on a surface everyone passes by. Renters, or anyone not drilling walls, get a firm spot for the schedule at a height kids can reach.

Skylight Calendar Extra Power Adapter — Spare Plug for a Second Room or a Borrowed Cord

A spare plug lets a calendar live permanently in a second spot, such as a playroom, home office or grandparent’s kitchen. Keep one on hand and the family command center never goes dark when the original cord is borrowed. It is a small purchase that removes a recurring scramble on busy mornings.

Skylight Calendar Household Planner Notepad — Paper Companion Pad for Ideas Before They Hit the Screen

A paper pad for jotting ideas before they make it onto the screen. Use it for grocery runs, weekend errands and quick reminders, then clear it once the household has moved what matters into the shared display. It suits families who still think on paper but want one reliable place where the week actually lives.
Where this fits best

Six situations a shared screen serves well

Busy weeknight families

One shared screen holds calendars, chores and lists, so nobody has to ask what is happening today.

Grandparents far away

Family members send photos and updates from anywhere, and relatives see them arrive on a simple display.

Kitchen command corners

Wall or counter placement in a busy room makes the schedule part of the daily traffic, not a stray note.

Renters avoiding drills

A tabletop stand and a cord cover keep the setup tidy without altering walls you cannot change.

Second homes and offices

A spare adapter lets a second calendar stay plugged in permanently in a playroom or home office.

Homes with little kids

Chore cards, a chunky stylus and a screen shield help small hands take part without smudging the view.

What actually changes the choice

Four factors that decide your setup

Mounting vs. tabletop

Wall mounting frees counters but needs a hook; a stand suits renters.

Six directions within the family calendar category

Wall-mounted setups

Hang the display in a hallway or kitchen and keep counters free; pair it with a cord cover.

Counter and desk spots

An easel stand tilts the screen on a kitchen counter or desk, ideal where you cannot drill.

Screen care choices

A clear shield suits high-touch rooms where fingers reach the glass many times a day.

Kid participation gear

Styluses and chore cards let small hands check off tasks without leaning on the display.

Labeling and zones

Writable labels separate each person's color or list when several schedules share one screen.

Power and spares

Adapters and tidy cord runs let a calendar live in a second room without the borrowed cord.

What families tell us

Honest notes from real household setups

Questions before you buy

Practical answers about setup and daily use

Should we mount the calendar on the wall or set it on a counter?
Both work, and the choice usually comes down to space and who needs to see it. Wall mounting keeps the display at eye level in a hallway or kitchen and leaves surfaces free, while a tabletop stand tilts comfortably on a counter or desk. If renters or small hands are a factor, the counter often wins.
The Skylight Calendar auto-syncs with popular calendar apps, so the plans your family already keeps on phones appear on one shared screen. That means fewer duplicate entries and one place to check before the day starts. Worth confirming your specific calendar service is supported before you buy.
You have options. The wall mount plate tucks the cord out of sight behind the display, and a paintable cord cover kit runs the cable along a baseboard or doorway frame so it reads as part of the room. Either keeps a busy walkway clear of a wire someone could catch.
A clear screen shield guards against fingerprints, smudges and juice-box splashes, and it applies smoothly without bubbles. Pair it with an easy-grip stylus so children tap the display instead of leaning on the glass. Families who check the schedule dozens of times a day notice the difference quickly.
A spare power adapter lets a calendar settle permanently in a second room, such as a playroom, home office or a grandparent’s kitchen. The family command center never goes dark because the original cord got borrowed, and both screens can show the same shared schedule.
The calendar works on its own, but a few accessories solve specific friction. Chore cards give kids a visible task list, a mount plate clears counter space, and labels separate everyone’s zones when several schedules share one screen. Start with the problem you feel most, then add from there.
