Calendar Ideas

[Jenna]

I really want to make some next year calendars with my mindee's to send home but am totally stuck for ideas on what to put on them. MY oldest mindee is only 3 so they need to be simple.

Hand prints, left plain or made in to Angels or Reindeers

Do some finger painting then cut out picture into Xmas tree shape to glue on.

Handrints or footprints are always good, !!! I would leave them plain though so they don't have a Christmas calendar up all year!! or a montage of photos of child!

we use handprints for all sorts of things. we put googly eyes on them and smiley mouths.

lats year one LO decided to put a googly eye on the end of each finger

I bought some calendars from Baker Ross. Its a 12 month calendar and for each month I have done something relevant to that month or as close as. IE:

Jan- snowman
Feb- Love heart
Mar - Easter bunny
April - Rainbow
May - flower
June - Fish (not relevant but an easy handprint pic
July- sun
Aug - butterfly
September - Autumn tree
October- ghost
November -FIreowrks
Dec - Santa

Hope this helps.
I also got some handmade by stickers from crafty crocs to go on the back.
