Big Life Journal Reviews

Using Big Life Journal was really smooth. The site felt simple and I didn’t have to dig through a bunch of pages or click around forever just to find what I was looking for.

Checkout was easy too, with no weird steps or confusing screens. Everything loaded well on my phone, which I really appreciated because slow or messy mobile sites are such a preventable headache.

Overall, it felt straightforward and not frustrating, which is pretty much all I want when I’m buying something online. I’d definitely use it again...

I bought this journal for my daughter, she actually uses it. Like, really uses it. The pages feel good quality, and the prompts are simple but helpful without being too much. I’m really happy with it, really happy.

I’ve used Big Life Journal with my homeschool kids, and I’ve also brought a few pages into a classroom group. I wasn’t totally sure at first if it would work in both settings, but it’s been easy to use without much prep. Some of the activities do start to feel a little repetitive, or maybe that’s just me overthinking it, but overall it’s been helpful. The kids actually end up talking about the topics, which is always a good sign.

I picked this up for my daughter, and we’ve actually been using it together regularly. The goal pages get her thinking without feeling like homework, and the reflection sections make it easy for us to have little conversations about things. There isn’t a ton of writing, which is a big plus. Overall, I’m really glad we got it.

The instructions were really clear, and I picked it up fast. It all just made sense without having to overthink it.

I wanted to give this a fair shot, but I already had a feeling my kid wouldn’t really connect with this kind of self-confidence workbook, and that’s pretty much how it went. A few pages were cute and held their attention for a minute, but a lot of the confidence stuff started to feel repetitive. After a short while, my kid was bored and didn’t really want to keep going

It’s been hard to fit this into our routine most days. We try, but it just doesn’t really flow with our day-to-day schedule lol.

I do genuinely like these journals, and I think the overall idea behind them is really sweet, especially for kids. They feel thoughtful and useful, and I can see how they would be a nice way to get kids writing or reflecting a bit more. That said, the price did feel a little steep to me once I actually got to checkout. I ended up waiting until there was a discount before I bought anything, and that definitely made it easier to justify, but if I had to pay full price I probably would have skipped it. Between the item prices, shipping, and the final total, it added up faster than I expected. Overall, I’m happy with the products and I do think they’re good quality, I just wish the deals were a bit better or came around more often...

I ordered from biglifejournal.com it was okay, but not quite what I expected. The site makes the whole process seem super easy and seamless, but checkout was kind of slow and I wasn’t even sure my order actually went through at first. I did get the confirmation eventually, so it worked out, but it didn’t really match the smooth experience they seem to promise.

We picked this up for our kids, it’s made dinner conversations way less dull. The questions are simple, but in a good way. They get everyone talking a little more, even our quieter kid, which surprised me. Not every page is a hit, sure, but overall it’s been a really nice addition for our family...

I picked this up for my kid to help with some big feelings, and overall it was somewhat useful. A few pages gave us better words to talk things through, which I appreciated. That said, some parts felt a little repetitive to me, and it didn’t exactly solve everything for us. I’d say it’s decent and probably worth trying, but maybe not a total game-changer

I picked this up hoping it would give me and my kid an easy way to connect a little more and get some better conversations going at home, and there were a few pages that were really sweet and led to some nice little moments between us, but after a while some of it started to feel kind of repetitive and my child checked out faster than I expected, so while I don’t think it’s bad at all, I do think it probably depends a lot on the kid and I was just hoping for a bit more.

I got this for my niece, i was half expecting it to show up with some bent corner or weird packaging issue because that always seems to happen to me. But nope, it was packed really nicely and looked cute enough to give as-is. I didn’t have to do much extra, which I’m definitely not mad about. She was happy opening it, so I guess I can’t blame anyone but myself for worrying.

My order showed up later than expected, and the tracking barely updated the whole time. I kept checking for info, but there just wasn’t much there.

I actually liked the stuff they have, and browsing around was easy too. I’m the kind of person who signs up for emails and then forgets about it, like when you buy one kitchen gadget and suddenly your inbox thinks you’re a professional chef. But these emails started coming way too often for me and got annoying quickly. The products are nice, I just wish the email frequency was dialed back a bit.

I did eventually get access and the download worked, but the email link took a while to come through. I also expected some kind of follow-up or confirmation after that, but nobody checked in or said anything, which was a bit frustrating...

We got the Big Life Journal for my 9-year-old, it’s been way more helpful than I expected. She used to get super frustrated when something felt hard, especially with homework, and would pretty much shut down. After a few weeks, I started hearing her say stuff like, “I can try a different way,” instead of just giving up. It’s not some magic fix, of course, but it’s given us better words to use at home. The activities are simple, sweet, and thankfully not too cheesy.

This is a nice journal overall, and it has some good prompts in it. My daughter was into it for the first 5 or 6 days, and it did help her open up a little about her goals and what she wanted to work on. After about a week, though, I had to remind her almost every time to use it. It’s not bad at all, just maybe not quite as engaging as I was hoping it would be.

I had to reach out to customer service about my order, which I never love doing because you never know if they’re actually going to help or just give you the runaround. They did eventually reply and were polite enough, and to be fair, they fixed the issue in the end. It wasn’t a bad experience, but the responses took longer than I expected. I just wish they were a bit quicker, especially when it’s something order-related.

I thought this was going to be one more thing on my plate, and I was not excited about that. But okay, I take it back, it’s actually been easy. The pages are short, so we’ll do a little after dinner a few nights a week, and it doesn’t feel like a whole production. My kid even reminds me sometimes, which is kind of shocking but definitely helpful.
