Test result preview
With the magnetic weekly planner for children, the manufacturer Die Lernschlawiner enables practical and loving weekly planning.
In our test, the product impresses with its appealing and child-friendly design, while at the same time guaranteeing high stability and flawless workmanship.
We can confirm the user-friendliness for both young and old users in our practical test. The manufacturer is particularly impressive here with over 200 different magnets, some of which can even be customised to suit individual requirements. The use of non-permanent markers on the surface of the planner means that there are only a few limits to individual use.
The only negative aspect in our test was the storage of the remaining magnets, as a particular magnet is difficult to spot in the large quantity, which makes flexible customisation difficult. In addition, a marker included in the scope of delivery would be desirable.
Overall, however, the magnetic weekly planner is an ideal addition to the everyday organisation of the little ones, who can be involved in filling it in and reading it thanks to the intuitive drawing format .
Advantages
- Reliable magnetic force
- 100% writable and wipeable
- Including cord for mounting
- Storage bag made from 100% cotton
Disadvantages
- Storage in a very compact bag makes it difficult to fill out
- No marker included in the scope of delivery
The test
General information

To give you a quick overview, we work with a points system. The maximum achievable score per area is 100 points. The final overall score is calculated from the average of all tested features, taking into account the respective weighting.

The first impression
Packaging and contents
Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

The magnetic weekly planner from the brand Die Lernschlawiner makes a very good impression as soon as it is unpacked. The product arrives in compact cardboard packaging, which also functions as an instruction manual. All the important product information and warnings are printed on it, while still retaining a child-friendly and endearing design.
The magnetic board is supplied together with two pre-cut sheets with over 200 magnets and a 100% cotton storage bag in a plastic sleeve. In addition, cardboard sheets inside ensure safe transport. The product is therefore more than adequately secured. The scope of delivery is complete. In our opinion, separate instructions for use are not necessary for this rather self-explanatory product and would therefore be superfluous.

After unpacking, we take a closer look at the quality of the magnetic weekly planner. Firstly, the product impresses with its appealing and child-friendly design. The colours look vibrant and lively, the countless drawings of the activities are easy to understand and ideal for children.
We also have no criticism of the workmanship. The magnets are easy to remove from the sheets without any sharp edges. The magnetic board also looks neatly finished and has no defects or faults.
The board also appears to be very stable in terms of its intended use. The product easily withstands an initial, short pressure test.
In addition to the laboratory-tested materials used and the CE certification, the absence of superfluous plastic and the 100% cotton collection bag also ensure that the product is particularly sustainable.

The magnetic weekly planner for children from Die Lernschlawiner was also convincing in our practical test.
The first thing we noticed when using the product was its reliable stability. Thanks to the mounting holes and the included cord, the product can also be easily attached to walls using a nail or similar.
The product can easily withstand being pulled in a manner appropriate to its use. Releasing the magnets from the supplied sheets is easy and also possible for children.
The small magnets are very easy and practical to use. Thanks to their low weight, they also have an appropriate holding force. There are no restrictions on their use.
Children in particular benefit from this product design. Our test shows that the over 200 magnets can be used very intuitively thanks to the special drawing shape. This means that the weekly planner can be filled independently by a child.
It should also be emphasised that the clever product design impresses with its low overall weight. This means that nothing can happen to the child even if the board falls down, minimising the risk of injury.
As the board can also be written on with a non-permanent marker in addition to the magnets, the board can also be used very flexibly , at least with the help of adults. Such a marker would be desirable for the product scope, for our test we use our own black marker. Writing and cleaning can be carried out without water or cleaning agents using a microfibre cloth. Our test did not reveal any residue.
The very compact storage bag made of 100% cotton offers enough space for the unused magnets. Unfortunately, this storage makes weekly changes to the plan rather difficult, as searching for a specific magnet from this mass is relatively time-consuming. We consider more organised storage to be sensible and desirable.
Overall, however, with this product the manufacturer offers a compact and helpful addition that makes everyday planning easier and at the same time enables playful learning for the child.

At the time of testing, the product is not yet officially listed on Amazon. Therefore, no other reviews are available, so this point is neglected in the evaluation.
Prices of up to €29.95 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €13.99 . The magnetic weekly planner from Die Lernschlawiner is therefore currently in the middle price segment with a provisional retail price of €23.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
