Plan school and tuition as fixed costs
School fees and tuition often repeat every month or every term. Add them as fixed bills, and set aside a monthly amount for term-based costs like books and exam fees, so they do not hit in one month.
Keep a category for the children
Food, clothes, activities and medical costs for children can be tracked in their own categories. The spending analysis then shows the total cost of raising children, which helps when you plan a bigger goal.
