How to Make
For the best results, click the link above to print this blank count down calendar onto matte photo paper. Although any paper will do. {wink} Next, slip it into a frame that you already have displayed in your home and you are set!

How to Use
The glass in the frame serves as a wipe-on/wipe-off board. Use a marker to write down the event you are counting down and the number of days away. Have the kids take turns wiping off the number and writing down the next one. Yes, I like to pawn off as much as possible onto my kids. {evil laugh} No seriously, they really love it!
