- 5 columns in the weekly planner
- All 12 months of 2027
- Federal holidays marked

How a family uses this calendar
A regular wall calendar gives each day one small box. That works for one person, but it falls apart once three or four people share it. The family calendar turns the layout around: days run down the page and people run across it. When you read one row, you see the whole household on that day. When you read one column, you see one person's month.
A simple routine is enough for most homes:
- Sunday evening: print a fresh weekly planner and fill it in together. It takes ten minutes, and it's often the only time everyone looks at the coming week at once.
- During the week: anyone who adds a plan writes it in their own column. Use a pen that hangs next to the sheet, so nobody has to go looking for one.
- Month start: put up the new month page and copy over the fixed dates, such as birthdays, school breaks, recurring appointments and holidays.
Children who can read can take charge of their own column. That gives them a small, concrete responsibility, and parents get fewer "nobody told me" moments.
The columns: what's on each page
The PDF has 14 pages, and the two planning layouts are deliberately different:
- Weekly planner (one page, print as often as you like): a "Week of … to …" line, seven rows from Monday to Sunday, and five name columns. At the bottom is a full-width row for shared plans and reminders, such as "library books due" or "grandma visits Saturday".
- Month pages (January–December 2027): one row for every date, with the weekday and the date on the left, and four columns for family members. Each holiday, and the weekday it is observed on, is printed right in its row.
- Cover page: a short how-to with three steps.
If there are more than five of you, give the youngest children one shared column, or print two weekly sheets and put them side by side.
Holidays and long weekends in 2027
The month pages mark all eleven US federal holidays. For families, the useful part is spotting long weekends early, before work rotas and sports schedules fill up. In 2027, these federal days off give a three-day weekend:
- Monday: January 18 (Martin Luther King Jr. Day), February 15 (Washington's Birthday), May 31 (Memorial Day), July 5 (Independence Day, observed), September 6 (Labor Day), October 11 (Columbus Day)
- Friday: January 1 (New Year's Day), June 18 (Juneteenth, observed), December 24 (Christmas Day, observed), December 31 (the observed day off for New Year's Day 2028)
Veterans Day (Thursday, November 11) and Thanksgiving (Thursday, November 25) fall midweek, so the Friday after Thanksgiving is the day many families ask about first. Schools, states and employers make their own decisions, so write your own district's closures into the month pages as soon as they are published. For the full list of dates, see the 2027 calendar.
Printing tips for a calendar that gets used
- Print the month pages once and the weekly page every week. Keep a small stack of blank weekly sheets in a drawer.
- Use slightly heavier paper (around 24–28 lb, or 90–105 gsm) for month pages that hang on the fridge for 30 days. Ordinary paper is fine for the weekly sheets.
- Choose "Fit to page" only if the margins get cut off. Otherwise keep the scale at 100%, so the rows stay wide enough for handwriting.
- Black-and-white printing works. The holiday labels are text, not color.
- Give each person a pen color. That way, you can see whose plan it is without reading the name.

FAQ
Questions families ask
How many names fit on the 2027 family calendar?
Five on the weekly planner and four on each month page. For a bigger household, combine young children in one column or print an extra weekly sheet.
Why do the weekly and monthly pages have different column counts?
A month page needs a row for up to 31 dates, so it has less room across the page. The weekly page has only seven rows, so it can fit a fifth column and a reminders row.
Can we start using it in December 2026?
Yes. The weekly planner has no dates printed on it, so you can fill in any week. For the month itself, there's a separate December 2026 page on the site.
Are school holidays included?
No. Only federal holidays are printed, because school calendars vary by district. Copy your school's dates in by hand when you get them.
Does the weekly planner start on Sunday or Monday?
It starts on Monday, so Saturday and Sunday sit together at the bottom of the sheet. The month pages simply list the dates from the 1st to the last day.
Do I need an account or app?
No. Download the PDF, print it and write on it.
