May Activity Calendar for Kids

It’s a new month. It was a long April at home, with lots of rain and no where to go. We’re excited for May and warmer weather. Today I’m sharing a May Activity Calendar for Kids.

My big kids have been doing great with their distance learning and usually finish by lunch. My preschoolers are very active and I find if I have just 1 activity planned each day, it helps me have something to do with the preschoolers while the big kids work and/or something to let them do all together when school work is done.

Here’s a calendar that has easy enough activities that many of them can be done on their own if the kids are older and something to make the day go by a little faster if you have toddlers.

On Instagram, there are highlight reels that have lots of these activities. I’ll start one for May activities so you can follow along with that too. I’m hoping these activities help give ideas and make life stuck at home just a little bit easier.
