Every summer, in what has become an annual tradition, my mother prepares a family calendar for the upcoming year.
These beautiful printed-and-bound calendars contain family photos and mark everyone’s birthdays, anniversaries, and other important milestones.
Normally, my mother decorates the pages herself, but this time, she asked some of the grandchildren to provide appropriate drawings.
Three of the Shiputzim kids were among those assigned specific months, and here’s what they came up with (in ascending order, according to the young artists’ ages).
As always, feel free to click on the pictures for a closer view:

ReplyDeletewhat a great idea! i love seeing the kids' lovely artwork, too-- it's always a fave of mine! there's something so sweet totally captured in little drawings made by little hands.
ReplyDeleteMinnesota Mamaleh - The calendar is more elaborate each year, and I agree that the kids' artwork is a wonderful addition!
ReplyDeleteLovely, my daughter and her husband did one this year for the Jewish Calendar. Each month had a photo of their family.
