Looking for a planner that lets you see your month and week together without flipping pages? 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.
She’s especially helpful when life feels busy but not overly structured, and you want a planning system that keeps everything visible without adding unnecessary complexity.
It’s a simple, flexible way to stay organized while keeping your plans, priorities, and schedule together in one place.
This layout is protected by patent no. 234855.
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.
Choosing a planner online can feel tricky, especially when you can’t flip through it first.

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:
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.

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!
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.
“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.
“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.
“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.
“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!
“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.
“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!

This planner is perfect! I love the layout so much. I’ve never seen a planner show separate weeks at the same time as my monthly view. This is so helpful for my work. The trackers are in the perfect location for keeping up with them. The binder is Saturday and feels great. I’m excited to use this planner - hopefully all year! ;)
This my very first planner that makes me excited to use every day. I'm very excited to use this well designed tool to organize my days and thoughts (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*.✧
I’ve been looking for a planner that is exactly what I need and finally found it!!!! Love the calendar on top, half pages on the bottom. Can’t wait to order my 2027 planner.
This is my favorite planner I’ve ever owned and I’m a planner addict. The layout is perfect for looking at the “big picture” while also looking at the details - something I’ve been looking for for years. The only negative is the cover. Fingerprints show up very easily on this particular cover and I would’ve chosen a different cover if I knew.
New to LD and purchased Mr Darcy (Scout) and love it!!
This is THE planner for me! Never going back to any other brand or style. Thank you!
I went with something less colorful and it’s perfect for work since I work in a professional environment but I sincerely miss the beautiful designs and colors.
This is my first LD planner and will not be my last. I'm obsessed with the layout (I got a large Scout) and it makes me happy everytime I look at it. As a single child free woman, I use it for my business and personal tracking. It's not just perfect for busy moms! I already can't wait to set up next year's planner!
I wish I had gotten it sooner. I llalso got the sticky notes so between those ans friction pens I have been learning what works for me and am really feeling productive!!!
First time user & I am hooked! The Scout has been a life changer. As a mental health therapist & mom of 3, it's my secret to keeping our busy family organized. I've even ordered one for my mom!
I have always made my own planners (to a degree) and mine included half pages for daily and full pages with months. I just wished that I could see daily and month at the same time without losing the notes space. Well, I can’t believe someone else also wanted the exact same thing as me. Love my planner so far and I would make some small tweaks but by far the closest planner to the one I had in my head!! Also w love the additional inserts and stickers.
The half pages allow me to see the whole month, week, and day at one time. I can easily organize my meeting notes by their chronology with this layout.
Such a beautiful planner. I love the size and the cover is so elegant. I use mine to keep track of the budget.
Best calendar book I have gotten in years! The full spiral means my pages won’t fall out and I love the way I can put down notes and important info daily without cluttering the calendar. I have been searching for a workable calendar to supplement my Google Calendar, and thanks to Laurel, I have found it. This will be an annual purchase, plus it will make for great Christmas gifts!
Every time I would buy a planner, it never felt right. When I saw how this one was laid out I IMMEDIATELY fell in love and needed it. It has the weekly and monthly view at a glance and thats something I've nyyyeverr seen before! It has habit trackers and lots of note space in the back. Plenty of empty space where I can make notes or doodles. I honestly love it so much <3
I like it! But I wish there was more space.
It is a great planner and comes with an extraordinary community! The videos are incredibly helpful in learning how to set it up. It's been useful to study examples of how others are using their Laurel Denise planners. All the good ideas and suggestions save a lot of time.
Best planner I’ve ever owned. Other planners never made sense to me or wanted me to go back to. This helps me organize my thoughts and tasks so much better
This layout gives me so much hope for 2026! I've already consolidated half a dozen floating lists into its pages, and I feel energized and committed to containing the mental clutter!
This is the perfect planner - I’m loving having the best of both worlds and being able to see my month as a whole while planning out my week and prioritizing tasks!
Love love love. As a type A human myself, this planner is perfect. It makes sense for my brain and has plenty of space for all the details of life. Big plus if you get the planner correlated sticky notes!
Really love this planner. Such a pleasure to use and has already helped me stop double booking myself. There's something about the way its laid out that makes you want to open it. Very robust outer covers.
Love the weekly breakdown! Exactly what I have been looking for!
The only wish is that the spiral was smaller diameter. I notice it in the way when writing and sliding it into my purse. A top spiral would be great!
I’m just getting used to my new planner, but so far, I absolutely LOVE it!! I love having my whole monthly calendar in view as I lay out my week! This is a brilliant design, and I’m in love with it! It’s perfect!
This planner was made for me! Personal life, work, and private practice this planner lets me put it all in one place and all in one view week by week!
This is the perfect planner for me. It's just the right size for carrying in my computer bag. The monthly and weekly views make managing my appointments, schedules and 'to do' lists easy. Love this planner.
I have literally been telling anyone who'd listen about this planner. The and comment I get most often is: "Why hasn't this been created before? Send me the link."
Exactly how I like to plan while seeing the whole month objectively. But also having a way to zone in to each week
I bought this has a gift for my wife! She absolutely loves to have a schedule and stay organized! This gift was perfect for her! She loves the fact that you can see the week and the month at the same time!
Absolutely love the customizable options! Seeing my month and weeks at the same time....phew...chefs kiss !!!
First off!! Wow 1000000 stars to the customer service! I emailed because my package was stolen and immediately got a response. A few days later they sent a new one!! When I finally got my new planner, I was IN LOVE. The packaging is lovely and everything about this feels amazing. The cover, coils, and main pages are thick. Love this planner so much and it was so worth the price!!
This is what I need. Bring able to see both the week and the month at once glance makes it easier to plan on my 2 week rotating schedule. I don't have appointments so this set up let's me make notes of what tasks I want to do and keep in mind when the next time I'm able to schedule tasks. Thank you !
The planner is the perfect size and I love the daily to do list at the bottom.
I love being able to see both the month and the week at the same time. It has helped my planning tremendously.
Great setup! Very helpful
I really appreciate the size. Not too small or too big. Perfect for a tote bag
Did the job and looks great.
Maybe it will work for you. It didn’t work for me. I thought I would like seeing the month schedule and then having the weekly to-do lists right underneath. But it was too hard to have appts in both my phone and in the monthly journal — (I actually missed an important phone call.) Also, the monthly calendar has a small amount of space and so do the daily lists. Get really thin pens! Or the bigger size. Also, I didn’t look forward to opening it up and seeing where I was in my tasks. I usually love that part. It’s just been a couple of weeks but I’ll probably throw this out and look for another brand.
I love it!
