While setting up the calendar, children learn about the days of the week, months of the year and holidays. As they manipulate the magnets, they're also honing fine motor and hand/eye coordination skills.

The Monthly Magnetic Calendar can also be used in a group setting to teach and reinforce calendar skills and promote opportunities to talk about holidays and special events. Setting up the calendar helps adults with cognitive impairments feel more involved and reinforces what they already know.
