FREE Printable 2012 Calendar
Personalized 2012 Calendar, MacGyver, age 8
Better late than never! You’ll see that motto over and over again here at waddlee-ah-chaa because we’re just too darn busy to keep up with life. We began 2012 by planning our father’s BIG 80th Birthday Party. Now we are playing catch-up. We are finally posting our FREE printable Calendar for 2012.

I print the calendar and simply staple it in the corner like a handout. It’s very easy for the children to use.
Personalized 2012 Calendar, Miss Enigma, age 5
The cover is left blank so children can illustrate their own calendar. Miss Enigma was busy drawing a flower with a monarch butterfly when she saw how her brother was using the numbers in his illustration. Thinking it was very funny, she quickly adapted his idea to her own drawing.
For homeschool I give each child their own calendar. MacGyver utilizes his every day to write the date in his writing journal, reading response journal and on any other work that we do for the day.
Additionally, when the kiddos ask me “How long is it until ___________?” We pull out their personal calendars and count the days. Real-life applications for using a calendar. I think MacGyver began counting down the days until Christmas right after Halloween!
I actually like this personal calendar better than the class wall calendar I used when teaching in the classroom. We can still do the traditional calendar activities such as:
- Reciting the months of the year.
- Reciting the days of the week.
- Counting the days of the month.
- Yesterday was _____________.
- Today is __________________.
- Tomorrow is _______________.
- It is ____________ days until __________________.
- It is the _________ day of school.
- Grouping the days of the year by ones, tens and hundreds.
- Learning special holidays.
- Learning the seasons of the year.
Personalized January Calendar, Miss Enigma, age 5
Rather than buying or printing a commercial calendar, the children can illustrate each month of the year. At the end of the year, you’ll have a special keepsake that charts your child’s artistic growth and interests throughout the year.
Miss Enigma specifically wanted to draw Frosty The Snowman for the month of January.
* I like for the children to use mediums that do not bleed through the pages.
- colored pencils
- crayons
- oil pastels
- pastels (chalk)
Personalized January Calendar, MacGyver, age 8
For January, MacGyver decided to make a snowflake following the directions from our lesson on The Right Way to Make a Paper Snowflake. When he finished, he glued the snowflake into his calendar.
Happy Belated New Year!
