Struggling with calendar ideas for a 6 and 8 year old. boy and girl? any ideas??

Do you mean making a calendar for them to take home to share with parents?

I have photos we save through the year and link them to months - so the April photo for next year is the child's contribution to last years' Easter display etc.

The children then add artwork we have collected through the year in between the pages.

We have a special birthday cake featuring the amount of candles they will have next year on the relevant month as well... it's surprising how quickly it all fills up.

They decorate everything with sparkles and stickers and pictures etc.

We are having great fun at the moment

Yeh a calendar to make. Thought about photographs but only have these two they are siblings every other week. They only started a few weeks ago so not enough photographs to do that at the minute.

just let them draw a picture for each month of what it means to them and then decorate with stickers etc

august - going on holiday, march - birthday, april - easter eggs etc

Where did you buy the template from?

I got it off the internet in Word format and played with it to make it right for me
