Fridge Magic Interactive Children's Magnetic Learning Calendar - Blue- Fun Educational Tool for Time, Seasons, and Weather Awareness - 40x32 cm with Easy Hang Loop

Bought this for my 5 1/2 Year old to help him learn his Months and understand the concept of years. He really loves it. He is very much enjoying changing his Days of the Week, Date and deciding what the weather conditions are for the day. He even goes to change the conditions if it changes during the day. It is very well presented with nice colors and i am more than happy with the quality. The board is nice and sturdy as are the pieces and the magnets work well. I can see this lasting pasted my second child who is currently 2 1/2. Happy I chose this one over some of the other versions out there.

This is a great learning classroom calendar for getting children to begin to understand the months, days of the week, seasons etc... I chose this particular calendar for a couple of reasons. Firstly it’s straight forward and simplified. Some of the other calendars were too visually cluttered and I found them hard to focus on the current day, month etc. I also didnt want to have a large calendar that would take up the better part of a wall. We are using this in a homeschooling atmosphere whereas an actual classroom with lots of children would require those large calendars. The material is a hard cardboard and comes with a cord to hang. For us this is meant to be looked at once a day and hung back up. So we have no need of anything overly heavy duty because this isn’t something that’s getting played with or walked around the house with. Another thing I like about this calendar is how the months are colored in groups for the seasons. For example March, April, May are all green signifying they are all Spring months. Overall I am more than happy with my choice and would purchase it again.

We love this calendar! It is a little smaller than I'd hoped, but it gets the job done. We sing the "Months of the Year" song and "Days of the Week" song daily to help my Pre-K daughter learn these basic skills. After a few weeks, she has them memorized both in order and recognizing the sight words. My only complaint is that it does not include a year. I used a dry-erase marker to write the year on the top. We go over yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Following the numerical dates has helped her understand basic addition and subtraction when trying to remember the previous and future dates. Her favorite part is choosing the weather. She will jump up and race to her room when the weather changes from cloudy to snow, etc. Very fun and definitely worth the money.

Amazing product. Is there a way to get replacement pieces? My students have lost some of the magnetic pieces. Please contact me. Thanks

We got this calendar for our 2-year-old for Christmas. Pros: The pieces are colorful and the typeface is very readable. There's a place to put all the pieces that aren't in use. In addition to date, day of the week, month, and season, there's a weather category, which is nice for a pre-verbal kid -- my daughter can look out the window and decide which weather magnet to place. The pieces are big enough to be handled easily. Cons: The backing board has warped so it has a noticeable curve to it. It doesn't affect the magnets, but it does annoy me. The magnets are quite weak -- this might actually be a "pro" because it's easier for a kid to move the magnets, but it also means they tend to slide around at the slightest touch. The icons for "winter" and "summer" are similar to those for "snow" and "sunny," which is confusing to my daughter. The magnets are made of foam with a flexible magnetic backing, so they can be bent if you're not careful with them. All in all, my daughter and I like this calendar, and I think it will be great for helping her learn calendar skills. I just wish some of the little things were better.

I ordered this to use for teaching my preschoolers basic calendar skills. They enjoy using it and I've found it useful. I prefer this magnetic board to the velcro style boards I've seen. Magnets are included for seasons, days of the week, months, dates, and weather. Weather tiles include sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy, rain, sleet, and snow. The month magnets are color coded by seasons. The only negative might be that the year is not included, but I think this is a great tool for introducing basic calendar knowledge. The size might be too small for classroom use, but it works beautifully for us at home.

El calendario magnético llegó en el tiempo estimado. Llegó bien empacado. Es de muy buena calidad el material del producto. Estamos satisfechos con nuestra compra. Gracias Amazon!

This is a great teaching tool for kids. My little ones were familiar with the days and months but this helps to solidify it in their minds. They know the spelling of each day and month and now I mix up the days and months and have them place it in the right sequence and they enjoy it! I also supplement it with a real calendar so that they look up the date and then it's fun for them to point it out on the calendar. I think this is one of the best tools to teach kids days, months, seasons and weather that is quite tangible and interactive instead of just repetitive songs - though I also incorporate days of the week and months of the year songs as we do this each day. My only recommendation would be to make the magnets a bit sturdier and bigger as it can be easily smashed if the calendar falls down . But this is a fabulous for young ones to use and great for teachers to incorporate in their classrooms.

A beautiful, colourful, interactive chart for children to learn from.

My daughter is in Reception class and her class are currently learning about days of the week/months/seasons etc. We were asked to help with activities at home, so I started to look for a suitable learning aid as I am hopeless at making things. I was initially a little worried about the price as this wasn't cheap but I am really pleased with it. It is sturdy, hangs easily in our kitchen, the magnets are clear, a good size and the whole thing is very well made and really colourful without being garish. My little girl loves running to it as soon as we go downstairs (loved even more as it is pink, her favourite colour!) and it is really helping her with her days of the week which was her biggest struggle. Great product.

Magnets not so strong so bits do fall and get lost if not looked after, but nice product.

Ich war auf der Suche nach einem englischen Kalender für meine Klasse. Er lässt sich leicht aufhängen und nimmt dabei kaum Platz weg, zudem ist er leicht zu lesen (auch von weiter weg). Die Farbgebung ist attraktiv für das Lernen, die wesentlichen Aspekte am Kalender gehen dabei aber auch nicht unter. Was mir besonders daran gefällt: Die Farben der Monate passen zu den Jahreszeiten! Die Anbringung über die Magnete ist super einfach und es hält gut. Auch für Kinderhände geeignet! Ich würde diesen Kalender immer wieder bestellen!
