The Scout layout is designed for people who want to see everything in one place, simplify their planning, and stay on top of a busy schedule. This dated version runs from January through December 2026 and features our patented split-page layout, keeping your monthly calendar visible while you move through each week so appointments, deadlines, tasks, and plans stay in view together.

 

The Scout is designed for those who want to see everything at once, simplify their system, and feel clear, calm, and on top of their day-to-day schedule.

 

With the monthly calendar always visible at the top of the spread and weekly plans below, you can keep track of both the big picture and the details without flipping back and forth.

Frequently asked questions

Every Laurel Denise planner offers a unique blend of daily, weekly, and monthly views to help you stay organized. Some layouts focus on just monthly or weekly views, while others combine weekly, monthly, and even daily pages for more detailed planning.

The Nancy features short weekly pages in the center with horizontal rows, sitting on either side of the coil when the planner is open.

The Anne has short weekly pages in the center with vertical, lined columns for time-blocked scheduling.

The Scout is spiral-bound, with short weekly and daily pages running along the bottom. Each day has a lined vertical column for structured planning.

The Rose doesn’t include short daily or weekly pages around the coil (though inserts can be added!). It offers a large monthly view on the left and space for categorized lists or brain drops on the right.

The Carmen is our most traditional layout, featuring a large monthly planner.

Choosing a planner size is a big decision, and handwriting size can matter. We have images on each product listing showing several people's handwriting so that you can see how your handwriting compares and which size to pick based on that.

Plus, we offer a free size comparison printable so you can test your handwriting in each layout before purchasing.

Here’s a quick guide to help you find your perfect fit:
Small Size: Small but mighty
  • Perfect for simple planning and lighter schedules
  • Fits easily in most handbags and totes, great for on-the-go
  • Less open space helps keep things feeling manageable for beginners
  • About the size of a cookbook or a sheet of paper (just a few inches shorter)

Large Size: Room to breathe
  • Ideal for juggling work, personal life, kids, and all your lists
  • Plenty of space for detailed planning, notes, and to-dos
  • Portable enough to carry (about the size of a slim laptop)
  • Great if you want to spread out and see your whole week at a glance

Choosing a planner online can feel tricky, especially when you can’t flip through it first.

Before You Buy:

Planner Sizes at a Glance:

  • Small: Compact and portable, about the size of a cookbook, great for simple planning.
  • Large: Larger, like a 15" laptop, perfect for detailed planning.

After It Arrives (Before You Write):

  • If you’re unsure, hold onto your packaging and wait before writing in it.
  • Test writing lightly on a blank sheet over the layout to check spacing.
  • Hold the planner and feel how the coil sits, comfort matters!
  • Flip through and imagine using the layout to see if it fits your style.

Returns:
You can return unused planners within 30 days. Following these tips helps keep your return option open. See our full policy here.

Helpful Resources:

While we don’t offer customizations to the layout or cover (due to production costs and timelines), our planners are still totally customizable, just in your own creative way!

For the inside:

We offer a growing collection of Planner Inserts designed to fit our coil-bound and spiral-bound planners. Whether you need space for detailed lists, lesson plans, project planning, or something else entirely, there’s likely an insert (or booster pack!) that fits your needs. Just be sure to select the insert size that matches your specific planner.

Note: Inserts are not compatible with our sewn/bookbound planners due to the fixed binding.

For the outside:

Many customers personalize their covers with stickers, washi tape, vinyl decals, and even paint, and we love seeing all the ways you make it your own!

We offer a few different formats so you can choose the one that fits your schedule best. Each one includes 12 months of planning:

  • Calendar Year Planners (Yearly) – Dated January through December
  • Academic Planners (Mid-Year) – Dated July through June, perfect for the school year
  • Undated Planners – Totally flexible! You fill in the dates as you go. This one is a great choice if you want to start your month and your weeks on different days or if your life doesn't start on a Monday or a Sunday.

At this time, we don’t offer an 18-month planner. We’ve found that keeping the format to 12 months helps reduce bulk, keeps things more lightweight, and allows us to keep pricing as approachable as possible.

Planning beyond a year? Many of our customers like to keep a second planner on hand for future planning or use our Insert Packs and Sticky Notes to jot down what’s ahead before transferring it into their next planner.

Still deciding? Head to our Compare Our Planners page to see all the formats side by side and find your perfect fit.

Most of the time, our processing time is 1-4 business days, but during our busiest seasons, it can take a little longer (about 5-8 business days). Occasionally, we offer pre-orders for items before they’re officially available, and when we do, we’ll always share the specific processing and shipping details for those orders in the order confirmation.

Our fulfillment team, based in Utah, works Monday through Friday, 9 AM–5 PM PT, and takes a break for all major U.S. holidays.

View our full return policy here.

Choosing between a Sunday or Monday start just comes down to how you like your week to begin. A Sunday start places Sunday as the first day in your weekly layout, while a Monday start shifts everything so the weekend is grouped together at the end. Totally up to your planning style!

Start with this question: How do you like to see your week?

No matter how busy life gets (juggling kids, work, school, or all of the above) our planners are designed to help you manage everything on your plate. The real key is figuring out how your brain likes to see everything organized.

Not sure where to begin? Here are some of the most common things we hear from our community (maybe one sounds like you):

“I like my week to flow left to right, with plenty of open space to jot down my plans, tasks, and notes.”
That’s The Nancy planner, if you don’t need to schedule by the hour but want room to write and separate different parts of your day.

Shop The Nancy Planners

“I must time block all of my day.”
If that’s you, The Anne planner is a great fit. With lined columns, you can plan your day top to bottom by time, by category, or as one big to-do list. Psst...The Scout planner is also a good option for time-blockers.

Shop The Anne Planners

“I’m more about tasks than specific times, and I love seeing a big monthly calendar.”
The Rose planner pairs a full monthly spread with a four-column layout for tasks, goals, or categories—perfect if you keep your schedule digital, use the Kanban method, or like pulling from a master list based on your time and energy.

Shop The Rose Planners

“I want a spiral-bound planner with vertical days, but shorter columns that still give me plenty of room.”
That’s The Scout planner, known for its short pages at the bottom and a monthly view that lines up perfectly with the weekly layout.

Shop The Scout Planners

“I’m an educator and need sections to organize my day by subjects or classes Monday through Friday.”
The Valerie planner gives you five blocks per day. Need more room? You can always split a block or two for planning periods or meetings. If these are sold out, you can choose another planner and add in our block inserts to create a setup that works for you!

Shop The Valerie Planners

“I like to keep it simple, with just a big monthly calendar to see the whole picture.”
The Carmen planner keeps things minimal, great on its own or as a supplement for meal planning and other schedules.

Shop The Carmen Planners

“I’m overwhelmed and just need to pick something to get started.”
We hear you! The Rose planner is a great place to begin. It's simple, flexible, and easy to build on. You can try adding Horizontal or Vertical inserts so that you can test out which weekly layout you'd prefer.

Choosing a planner can feel like picking your favorite ice cream flavor, so many great options! Our best advice? Check out our Compare Our Planners page for the full scoop on each layout. Don’t stress about finding the “perfect” one right away; sometimes the best way is to start with one that feels right and adjust as you go.

You can check our Restock Page for details on when items might be restocking. As a general rule, once a pattern is sold out, we typically don’t restock it, we try to plan for enough inventory when each collection launches. That said, sometimes we don’t realize just how popular something will be (The Scout, anyone?), and we make adjustments when we can. If you’re crossing your fingers for a comeback, be sure to sign up for restock notifications on the product page just in case!

Customer photo review of 2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

I am loving my planner. It has helped me combine by work and real life balanced. I thought I was a daily planner type of girly but I would find that I always stopped using them and my money would just go down the drain. I found the Laurel Denise planners by chance and it has changed my productivity at work and I plan on adding my meal plans on here so I don’t have that dread what should I cook today feeling. If your thinking about it just do it! It’s worth it!

Customer photo review of 2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

First time “Laureler” here. The packaging…the quality…the theme *chefs kiss* Headed down to my local library to a bit of inspiration on the theme. Can’t wait to get started!

Customer photo review of 2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

All moved in and ready to go! I love how intuitive the Scout is for me. If you're stumped and not sure how to start check out the YouTube videos, you'll be a pro in no time!

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

I haven’t been ready to commit to the full price planners so this was a great way to try BUT I do wish the paper was a little thicker when you use erasable pens. I will definitely be getting another planner when this one runs out!

FINAL SALE: 2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters

My favorite planner so far! The only thing I would change is I wish that the days of the week werent split when its a business day but I make due! I will definitely purchase again!

FINAL SALE: 2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters

I love the Scout layout! I'm glad I bought it mid year at a discount, due to it's size. I ordered the large, but for 2027 I will buy the smaller version. The dimensions described are correct. It's just not comfortable for me because of the size combined with the hard cover. It wouldn't be an issue if it weren't a planner I carry daily and left on my desk. I don't really like the pockets on inside covers. They don't seem durable and my papers catch when trying to insert them. The content and layout is great. I do plan to purchase the smaller Scout for next year's planner.

FINAL SALE: 2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters

FINALLY - I can see everything at the same time! I can see the whole month and week by week all in front of me. It's perfect! And there's still spots for random notes. This calendar is such a gift for my brain that struggles with time management.

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

This is my second Laurel Denise planner - I am officially smitten! The only downside: having to decide which beautiful theme and unique layout to choose. I've tried two different types so far and am already really close to a perfect match... but I love experimenting. It's clear how much thought and care goes into every single aspect of these designs - so appreciated!

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

My one wish for a better product would be for there to be some empty room built in to the left (for right handed people like me) and to the right (for lefties) of the wire spiral coil. My hand bumps into it when using the daily Wed calendar spots at the bottom.

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

I love the Scout!!! The moment I saw the FB ad, I knew I had to have it! It just works with my brain. I love how the Month and days/week are visible in one entire view...no switching back and forth. AND I love how the days of the week are vertically in-line with the days of the month. Perfection!! I've used another planner for the past 6 years, and I loved it. But. Once I saw the Scout, I knew I was going to switch. I will say that the small Scout is too small for me. Sooooo, after one week, I ordered the large Scout, and I've been in total bliss ever since! THANK YOU!!

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

Finally a calendar I don't have to flip between the month and the week!!! As someone who lives with time blindness/ADHD, once the page turns I no longer remember what I did the last week. There's just enough fluff (habit trackers and notes area) but the concentration is on the calendar - Definitely an instant favorite.

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

I absolutely love these planners and this is my third purchase for a family member. I have searched and used so many planners with none meeting my needs. To finally have a planner that offers me what I love is amazing. The best planner ever!!

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

I can't believe I've never seen a planner like this before, because once you see it, it makes so much sense. Being able to see the whole month at the same time as this week's day-by-day lists is a total game-changer and making my unfortunately rather hectic life more manageable. The back pages where I can keep track of the budget and other longer term goals and stuff, too, just absolutely rock. I will never go back to any other planner.

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

I really like this planner and will stick to this one from now on. I love the format of being able to see the month and week at the same time! It works well for me! It is also super cute!~ There were others I find cuter so I definitely be in time to order that for the next year!

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

As someone who has had a planner every year since childhood I have finally found the perfect one! Organized. Easy to navigate. Aesthetic. Quality paper. It’s a DREAM! 10/10 would recommend.

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

The Scout layout is just what I needed! Seeing the month and then the week at the same time is just so helpful. I also love all of the different ways that I can use the extra spaces. I purchased the sticky notes which is another game changer for me. Love your YouTube videos too! Thank you!!!

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

Love the planner. I wish there were more pockets throughout the planner. The ones that are on the front and back cover aren’t very functional. I am not able to slide regular sized paper in them.

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

This planner is exactly what I was looking for, monthly overview plus weekly activity worksheet. I love the layout! I can see what the month holds then have workable weekly sheets. Love!

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

Best planner that I have ever had. I love that I can see my monthly calendar and daily calendar at the same time! It really helps me stay organized and see my progress on my goals. It has everything that I need.

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

What a perfect planer for how my brain works!! I love having the whole month in front of me to plan big picture ideas and the weekly planning below. I use this mostly for organizing our homeschool curriculum. It’s so easy to track everything. I can even bring it to the library with me so we never miss the chance to get resources for future lessons.

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

I am so pleased with my new Scout planner. I love it so much and am getting used to all the different ways I can utilize it. I appreciate all the videos and tutorials that are shared by your team. Can't wait to continue to have great success with it. I've shared my love for this planner with many friends and peers. Thank you Laurel Denise!

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

A friend suggested this to me! And I love it! I love seeing the whole month and then having each day across the bottom for my notes and to do lists!!! My new favorite planner. Can’t wait for new one!!

FINAL SALE: 2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters

I have always wanted to be a planner person but don’t find typical planners conducive to my needs. However, this planner with the monthly view above the weekly list is perfect and exactly what I need! The actual planner is beautiful and feels like a quality product. Even the box and wrapping it came in are beautiful. I can’t wait until January 1st to start using it.

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

I love my new planner! The layout of the Scout Planner is perfect for wrapping my brain around everything going on in this whirlwind life I've created. I love seeing the whole month at the same time as the weekly breakdown. And the Bennet Sisters design is gorgeous!

2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters (portrait)

I moved from the large Rose to the Scout and I love! It! the large horizontal was just not comfortable and I had a lot of add ins. the Scout feels natural for my small business and family and continuing education needs

FINAL SALE: 2026 | The Scout Planner | Bennet Sisters

I run a home with two kids in different life stages, a digital media agency with multiple clients, church leadership activities, PTO activities, and more! I needed everything visible for the month and week in one quick view. This accomplishes everything I need with room for notes I collect throughout the month. No more multiple notebooks and agendas. THANK YOU.
