Preschool Magnet Fridge Calendar
|
What are we doing today?
Preschoolers are always asking that question because they are trying to learn the concept of
time, and trying to figure out what is going on in their life.
The Preschool Magnetic Fridge Calendar is a blank magnetic calendar with individual magnets for each
month, and a large assortment of magnets for general activities, special events, and holidays. You can
put a magnet picture on the day that an activity is going to take place, and use the included marker
which represents the child. The child marker is moved along the calendar to the current day, and the
child can have a concrete visual representation of what is happening during the week and month.
