Felt Learning Board Calendar

The Felt Learning Board Calendar is a versatile and interactive educational tool designed to help young learners explore and understand the concepts of time, weather, and seasonal changes through engaging, hands-on play. Featuring a range of colourful felt pieces representing the days of the week, months of the year, weather conditions, and seasons, this learning board encourages children to update the calendar daily, fostering a strong sense of routine and time awareness. As they physically place each felt piece, children develop essential skills in sequencing, vocabulary, and critical thinking. The inclusion of seasonal and weather-related pieces invites meaningful conversations about nature, daily life, and appropriate activities, helping to build real-world knowledge and environmental awareness. The felt materials are soft, safe, lightweight, and easy to clean, making them suitable for repeated use in classrooms or home environments. With its compact and portable design, this board is perfect for group discussions during morning routines, small-group instruction, or one-on-one learning time. Supported by activity suggestions, it provides educators and parents with creative ways to integrate calendar learning into everyday routines. The tactile nature of the board promotes active learning and supports a wide range of developmental skills, making this an excellent addition to any early learning program.
