Now we are in December most Early Years settings will be preparing for the fun activities that build up to Christmas. Whether you host a large Christmas party for all the families, a play or enjoy planning lots of fun crafts for the children, there is always so much to do.
I love to count down with the children to the big day so having a special calendar for the children to share is a great way to start. Here are a few inspirational ideas, some with step-by-step instructions, to help you create individual calendars or a joint calendar for your children.
Build a reindeer activity calendar
Make an envelope calendar using recycled paper and card
