I swung by a friends house a few weeks back to look at some furniture and as we walked through their homeschool room I noticed a fun little calendar.
I loved it so much, I got online and bought one when I got home.
Gotta love Oriental Trading Company. My First Calendar Magnetic Chart for under $15 and with free shipping. Sometimes the stuff you find at OTC can be kinda junky. Not this. It seems to be well made. I love the bright colors and that the seasonal months are color coded. Its actually a thicker magnetic board so will hold up to use.
It has:
Months
Days of the Week
Date
Weather and Season
Now I'm a kinda DIYer. I have a scrapbooking room office that resembles Hobby Lobby. I actually made a different version of this when we first started HSing. Its all laminated, velco-dotted and all.
I like OTCs version better. Much better!
I bought this for my 5 y.o. and he loves it, but the girls want to use it too. I told them they could do the weekends. :) They've actually been fighting discussing who gets to do what.
Right now, its perched on the ledge of my dry erase board. That's where it will stay until I find a permanent home for it. By the time kiddo #3 is done with calendar work #4 will be using it.
The picture from the website made me giggle.
I guess the people who setup the merchandise for photos need a little lesson on Weather vs. Season.
I'll send them my Kindergartner.
