My oldest daughter, Luca, found a website where she could create a calender. She picked a header picture and gave her calender a theme. The website automatically added any holidays to the calendar.
When she was finished with her design she asked if I’d print it to our color printer. I told her I’d do that but that she first might want to type in any special appointments on the calendar such as her Grandfather’s visit next month.
Luca looked at me and said, “I don’t want to type it. I want you to print it and then I’ll color it in myself with crayons and add stickers to it”.
I thought for a moment. I then printed her calendar knowing she was right. Typing in the special dates doesn’t make it very special, but coloring it in on her own would.
Sometimes the low tech approach is the best approach.
