I’ve been getting ready for Halloween since mid-August, yes, I’m that person. Halloween is by far my favorite holiday and I’m trying to pass that onto my kiddos. This year we planted our very own pumpkin patch and have already harvested over 10 pumpkins and have at least 10 more growing! So a Halloween Countdown Calendar was naturally a necessity, and I thought I’d share it with you too! Print, display, and count down each day by filling in the day with a marker or adding your own sticker. Grab the printable file for only $.99 in our shop!

SUPPLIES:

• Home Printer, I’m using the Canon TS5320 All In One
• 8.5″ x 11″ Matte Photo Paper or Cardstock
• Paper Trimmer or Scissors
• Corner Rounder, optional
• Frame or Clipboard
• Our exclusive, Halloween Countdown Calendar in our shop for only $0.99!

Download + Print

Download our Halloween Countdown Calendar from our shop and then print it on 8.5″ x 11″ matte photo paper or cardstock. The print itself is 8×10.

Trim

Trim the print down to size, 8×10, using a paper trimmer or scissors. I also cut out a piece of glitter cardstock as a backer for the clipboard.

Round the Corners

If you feel like it, round the corners of the print!

Clipboard or Frame

Then add to a clipboard, message board, cork board, or frame. If you decide to frame it, don’t forget to leave the glass off so the kiddos can mark off each day!

Sharpie or Something Washable

In our house there will be a black WASHABLE marker tied to the clipboard. My kiddos are all under 5 so Sharpies are a no-no, LOL.
