$1 Bin Pre-School Calendar

Like most of you I poured myself into my children when they were all living at home.  I did preschool activites with my children when they were little...seems like a long time ago...the last of my four children started college this fall.  I believe in getting as much education as you can and never stop learning or educating yourself.

My seven grandchildren have replaced my little ones and their mom's do little learning activities with them on a regular basis. I saw these plain calendars in the dollar bin at Target...they were actually $2.50...still cheap. I knew my DIL's would appreciate these calendars to help the kids learn about days of the week and the months of the year.

As you can see they are plain...so I had to doll them up a little.

Painted the sides of the wood with a basic black craft paint.

Cut a piece of scrapbook paper to fit the front and Mod Podge the paper to the board....so easy and fast.

From plain to fun!  My grandkids love changing out the days of the week.

That is my thrifty contribution to the family this week!
