In this post: Learn how to make a Disney Countdown Calendar for your next Disney Vacation. Video Tutorial and Printable included in the post!

Ya’ll, we are going to Disney World this fall. If you don’t know, kids are free before three. This is something we took advantage of with our son {a trip at 2.5-years-old}; and we will be doing the same this year, with our 2.5-year-old daughter. Planning is already taking place… and we are building up the excitement with a DIY Disney Countdown Calendar.

Let’s be honest, the kids aren’t the only folks in this house who are ready to start this countdown. Am I right?! This week, I’ve been working on our Dining Reservations and I can’t get Disney off my mind. Do any other adults get this excited about taking their kids to Disney? I’m sure I’m not the only one…

This project uses one of my favorite crafting go-to products: a chalk marker. I love Super Chalks pens and have used them in many non-chalkboard projects, such as updating a wooden bowl and a console table. Of course, Super Chalks also work well for actual chalkboards like our US Map and prayer board. Plus, the markers come in an array of colors.

I completed this project in an afternoon, while my son was working on Homeschool. The kids enjoyed watching it come to life — and you can watch the Disney Countdown come to life in the video, below.
