Has anyone made these?? I am thinking of making one for each of my kiddos' teachers...gearing it for the classroom. Like a 100th day of school, field trip, late start, etc.... Any ideas would be great!! Thanks

Hey those are cute. Do magnets stick on cookie sheets? You could do the Days 1-31 on magnets.. if they do! How cool! I am tempted to make one of these.

Yes. On mine I (since I was just doing count down to Christmas), I put magnets on a frame and then moved the frame everyday. So you could put the numbers on magnets so they can be moved each month. I'd like to do the perpetual calendar someday but it is way down on my list right now.
Now these are very cute. I made these for use in kindergarten centers when I was still teaching. I used cute Contac Paper to stick the designs on and chipboard or checkers decorated with the numbers. It made a very versatile and self-checking activity because the kids could match it to the big classroom calendar. I used the cookie sheet sideways to fit the 7 day week onto it.

OMG.. I just got home from my class.. this should have been an all day class LOL!! I got about 1/2 of it done....
It is sooooo cute though! (at least her sample was!!) Picture 2 clipboard backs ribboned together... we cut patterned paper and mod poged those 2 boards....then on the top board attached was a little notepad and a mat for a picture with some cricut cut flowers.... then the bottom had the days of the week across the top... stamped in ink---then under that there are 5 rows of 7 peices of chipboard all 1" x 1 1/4 in size. We had to cut paper to that size and cover them with random cardstock. then you had to decorate each peice of chipboard with the numbers ... 1-31... and there will be a few extra left for random sayings... like Family... Hope, love etc.. and even family pictures... Or you can make up different ones like for christmas you could have a stamped wreath... or Easter.. and egg or basket.... etc. then those pieces were hung on the board with velcro strips...
I will definately take a pic... But I am no where near done yet! LOL It was fun...
These ideas are so amazing! I am subscribing 'cause I can't seem to find the 'perfect' advent calendar for Christmas either. Looking forward to all the ideas!!!
I started one a while ago but never finished... Was going for the perpetual one, not the advent. I should dig it out and finish it, its about 90% done...
If you use the cookie sheet and actually use the bottom as the front of your calendar, you can store the rest of the pieces, months, dates, etc... in the cubby hole it leaves on the inside, kwim?

I picked up a couple of cookie sheets yesterday at the dollar store and I'm going to give these a try. I'm going to go for the organizer type with a notepad, magnet clips, calendar and pen holder. I hope they turn out OK!
I finished my first one tonight. I went with the organizer type and added a notepad, library pocket, calendar and three mini clothespin magnets. I'm pleased with how it turned out and it was pretty easy!
