Between after-school activities like sports and social clubs, instructional classes outside of school, and the large number of two-household children due to a high divorce rate, today’s kids are on the go more than ever. Managing a youngster’s schedule can be more challenging than keeping track of the adults’ in the family!

Thankfully, technology has kept pace with kids’ rapidly expanding schedules, and there are iPhone apps in the App Store dedicated to making family management and kid scheduling simpler. These 10 apps might be just what you’re looking for if the kids in your life are always on the go.
