Activity Calendar for April 2011

I just finished putting together our calendar for April and thought I would put it out for you all to see. Obviously, you won't be copying it day by day, but hopefully it will give you some good ideas when you are feeling a little stumped!

You should be able to click on the calendar to enlarge it and then click it one more time for easier viewing.

A few things you might notice are that a.) I put personal things on the calendar for my own purposes. I don't want to print several calendars each month so I just added things like birthdays, trips, and holidays, to this one. b.) I will be going on a vacation the latter part of the month that will continue on into May. What does that mean to you? Well, nothing really, except that you can expect a GIANT lag in posting around that time. And c.) The first weekend of the month is only labeled with the words "General Conference". If you want to learn more about what that is, just click HERE.

Anyway, best of luck in April! Play hard, craft hard, teach hard, and work that mommy magic! Oh yeah! and as always, if you see something on the calendar that you want to try but don't quite understand, just tell me about it in the comment section and I will do my best to clarify things for you.

Activity Calendar for March 2011

I wanted to post my calendar for March a little early in case anyone wanted to get their supplies in advance, so, here it is!

I'm planning on posting each activity individually as I complete them so you can see how they were done, but a little explanation might still be needed for a few of the things you see on here. For instance, if you do not know who King Mosiah is, he is a historical figure from the Book of Mormon. I am LDS (a Mormon) so I am trying to use my Sundays to teach my children the principles that my church teaches. If you are not LDS than you can use this time to teach your kids about your own religion, or if you are not religious, it would be a great day to teach your children about the nature that surrounds them.

You might also notice that I have the Library on my calendar every other week. That is because the Library is FREE and it has a little area for my kids to play. They get to explore new toys, find new books, and check out FREE movies every time we go, so I am trying to take advantage of my resources.

I also have preschool and the Children's Museum listed on this calendar. That is really just for my own purposes. My 3 year old attends a small preschool every Monday and I don't want to forget to drop her off so I highlighted it on the calendar. The Children's Museum is on there so often because we bought a pass for the Museum last year and March is the last month we can use it. I just want to make sure I am getting my money's worth! Anyway, I hope you find this calendar helpful. Happy planning!
