So, while looking around online (I think on Jumpstart.com) I saw the suggestion that you let your child draw a picture for each calendar month. I didn't like the idea of buying a calendar only to cover up each month's picture with my son's artwork, so I decided to make a 2013 calendar for James (age 4) with nothing more than the name of the month, days of the week, and of course numbers, so that he can fill it in as he likes. First I made a document on the computer, which you can download
here. Then I printed it off, added a blank sheet to the front, and stapled all 13 pages together. He wrote "James's Calendar 2013" on the front. Now we can add holidays, birthdays, and anything else he wants.
