Printable Children’s Calendar 2020

What makes this such a great calendar for kids?
1. It’s flexible – you can print out the whole year or a month at a time, either way it allows your child to map out due dates for assignments and other commitments they have each month.

Hot tip: Add a pack of fun, fine line colored pens to inspire your child even further

2. Each of the 12 pages features one month of the year, with weeks running Monday through Sunday, and plenty of space for recording daily entries.

Printing a month at a time makes the job of planning out their schedule a bit more manageable, and it is great for teens to see visually represented on the page what they have coming up.

Hot tip: Set time aside at the very end of the previous month to help them set up a new calendar for the upcoming month. Helping your pre-teen/teen start to identify where their busiest times are, and where they have more time available, is a great time management skill.

3. Once printed the pages can be kept singly in a folder, or stapled or bound together, or they can be hung up above your child’s study area.

4. The black and white pages make the calendar very printer friendly.

5. Coloring the fun border on each page makes a great little mindfulness exercise!

6. If you print the calendar pages two-to-a-page you can create a handy, smaller version of the calendar that is great for children to take with them as they travel between school, home and out-of-school activities.

Help your children get organized by printing this 2025 calendar today. We’re sure your kids will love them!

I am very much a pen and paper girl when it comes to being organized, and I LOVE a good list! I think the physical act of sorting my thoughts as I write items onto a list helps to stick them in my brain so that I can remember what I need to do more easily – even when that list isn’t in front of me.

Printable To Do List

This printable To Do List includes two columns so that your list can be divided between home and work tasks, or home and school, or however you would like to sort your tasks. The list can be used for a day, a week, a month or a specific set of related tasks, it is completely up to you.

You can print a whole batch of sheets and write directly onto a fresh page as you need it, or use it with Post-it Notes that can be removed as each task is done. You could even laminate a copy and write on it with a whiteboard marker.

And, as there is nothing to say that a To Do List has to be ugly or boring, this cute page is available in three colors – pink, teal and black!

Why Read Picture Books In Middle School?

At the most basic level, choosing a picture book as a middle school read aloud and actually making time for a story can offer a moment of respite in what students might find an otherwise stressful school day.

Beyond this, picture books can inspire students to think through abstract concepts and ideas, acting as a tool to stimulate critical thinking and discussion when selected to support classroom learning objectives, themes, or holidays – like Halloween!

The middle school picture books on this list are more complex than those you might choose for an early years classroom. As well as exploring dark themes, some feature more text per page, many include figurative language, some use poetic devices, and all include wonderful illustrations that are worth studying as part of any classroom art lesson. They make great Halloween books for middle school but are also awesome for literacy learning and investigation all year round.

And if you are looking for even more spooky stories, check out our collections of Halloween picture books for kids for suggestions for earlier grades, or this list of Horror Chapter Books that are sure to scare the socks off you middle schooler!

The Night Gardener by Jonathan Auxier
Molly and Kip are two Irish orphans trying to make their own way in Victorian England. Desperate for work and a place to call home, the children take roles as servants to the Windsor family, who live in an isolated place people refer to with a shudder as “the Sourwoods.” When they arrive, they can’t help but notice that the estate is in a state of disrepair. However, what stands out more than anything is the huge tree that grows so close to the house that some of its branches have grown right through the walls.

The longer Molly and Kip stay, the more they realize there is an eerie connection between the tree and all the strange things they observe – the Windsor family’s sickly complexions, the nightmares that plague everyone at bedtime, a mysterious room upstairs that is kept locked at all times, and a mysterious nighttime visitor. But just as Molly and Kip decide they need to leave this dangerous place, the power of the mysterious tree lures them in. Will they be able to save themselves? Age 10+ years.
