2001 Monthly Bean Bag Animal Printable Calendar Pages

For children with a shorter attention span, try giving them one month at a time on the 1st of each month.  That way, the kids won't be overwhelmed by 12 pages at once and it will help them learn the months of the year!  I've also started some other themes for the calendars.

If you are looking for the Year 2000 calendar pages, click here.

Instructions:

bulletPrint out the templates of choice. 
 
bulletEach month is a separate 7.5 inch x 10 inch template.  Therefore, to print a whole year it will take 12 pages
  
bulletTrim the Calendar pages as desired (this isn't necessary, but you may wish to do it if it isn't quite centered on the page.  Ripping along a ruler works well for giving a straight edge.
 
bulletOnce your calendar is complete you can hang it on the wall or cork board using a push pin.  Tear off each month as it's complete.
 

Options:

bulletBlank Calendar Pages: 
bulletPrint each month which has room for a character in the right hand corner but is not pre-printed. 
bulletPrint the Animal Pages that go with it.  
bulletColour (as necessary) and cut the characters from the Animal Pages.
bulletGlue the characters onto the calendar pages.
bulletYou could also glue a few photos of the family to some of the months instead of the characters for a bit of variety.
 
bulletAnimal Calendar Pages
bullethas the character already on the month. 
bulletThe downside is that you're stuck with the character I've picked for the month. 
bulletThe upside is that it takes less time. 
  
bulletMix and Match:
bulletTo get the best of both worlds, there's nothing preventing you from printing the Animal Calendar Pages that you like and the Blank Calendar Pages/Animal Pages for the months you want to create yourself. 
 

Printing:

bulletClose the template window after printing to return to this screen. 
   
bulletSet page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
