A big part of preschool and kindergarten is learning about routines, and knowing how a calendar works is part of that.
Learning the days of the week, months of the year and number of days in each week and month is an important part of understanding time and can help with learning numbers, too.
Print out these calendar printables from This Reading Mama for preschoolers who are interested in dates and calendars, or for older kids learning the calendar.
It includes a place where they can trace the name of the month, mark the day of the week, write the date in numbers and use counters to count to the number of the day. Slip them into a plastic sheet protector and they can write on them with dry-erase markers each day.
How do you teach the calendar to littles? I’d love to hear your ideas!
