Abstract: A child's holiday calendar is arranged for enabling children to visually ascertain the approach of a holiday without a reading requirement associated therewith. The calendar includes a matrix of pockets of a predetermined number to include the date of the month prior to and including the holiday date. An underlying opaque pouch is utilized for storage of various visual markers, such as candy, marking spheres, and the like, wherein a child may visually ascertain an approach of an impending holiday as the markers sequentially removed from the associated pockets. The pockets may be prenumbered, or alternatively may utilize removable date cards or fanciful figures attachable to the portion of the support sheet overlying each pocket.
