So this is a Circular Perpetual Calendar.
It was a project that the girls made. And might I say, it is super fun!
The girls haven’t quite finished it yet ’cause admittedly it was too difficult for Leviah (4-year-old). Though she enjoyed cutting out portions.
Lessons from the calendar
I really like what we ended up with. I think the visual relationship helps them see how the Gregorian(modern calendar) and the Hebrew calendar interact.
The only small change I still want to make is to mount it to something more solid than just the paper, potentially with a pointer like this one I found via pinterest.
It’s a good time of year to talk about calendars and time passing, etc.
How to make the calendars
We used three different plates as templates for the circles, and brad to hold the three together. I love rotating projects like these. I’m hoping to make a few life cycle ones–perhaps in the spring when so many life cycles are just beginning.
