The sun is shining and the only homework I want to see is a list of fun things to do. But those lazy summer days we enjoyed as kids don’t exist anymore. Grab this free printable summer calendar and let’s make sure we squeeze every last drop of sunshine out of these precious months!

Initially, this calendar was supposed to be just a way to make sure we set aside time to have fun during summer – a summer bucket list or activity list. Then I realized it’s supposed to be a break, not a marathon.
So let’s use this printable to pace ourselves, and schedule some downtime in between all the fun. Being well-rested really makes life more enjoyable!
I’ve kept things nice and simple with this printable. You’ll find a sheet for each month – June, July, and August – with a calendar and a handy list to jot down all your plans. With editable calendar dates and list items, you can fill it in before printing or even stick to using it digitally.
It’s all set to print on regular U.S. Letter paper (8.5×11″), so anyone can print at home easily!
☀️ Editable Summer Calendar

I like to think of this calendar as a blank canvas for summer dreams but it’s more flexible than that. Feel free to use it for any activities, or even habit tracking.
💻 How To Edit
This free printable summer calendar includes an editable version. You can change the calendar dates and fill the list before printing.
👉Open the file with a PDF reader like the free Adobe Reader.
👉Pages 1-3 are editable. I prefilled the calendar dates for 2025, but since they can be changed, you can reuse them year after year.
👉The editable fields will be highlighted in light blue (it’s just there to let you know those spaces are editable).
👉Click or tap on an editable field to add or change the existing text.
📝 Blank Option
This file also includes the blank summer planner pages. Print pages 4-6 if you want to write everything by hand. I admit I also do this sometimes – it’s oddly relaxing!
