Our 2023 Printable August Coloring Calendar is fun and will aid the kids in keeping track of special events in the last month of their school vacation. The August Calendar will also remind them to get prepared for the beginning of the new school year. This project is fun and a useful tool to keep the kids on track.

Here are a couple of dates to get you thinking:

• August 7:British Columbia Day (Canada)
• August 19: National Aviation Day

Trivia:

The month of August got its name from the Ancient Romans who named this month for Augustus Caesar. Augustus made adjustments to the calendar since the extra day that was supposed to be every four years was actually every three years Source: Terrebonne Parish Library System – How August Got its Name
