May fills up quickly for me, so I like a simple monthly page with big boxes for real-life notes. This set includes dated May calendars for 2025, 2026, and 2027 with a Sunday start and a clean black-and-white layout.

If you are planning across seasons, I like pairing May with the summer calendar once school ends and routines shift. If your May calendar turns into an event-heavy month, my holiday planner helps me track parties, gifts, and weekend plans in one place.

If you plan around long weekends, add Memorial Day to your calendar early and post a sign if you need it. I use the Memorial Day closed sign when I want that detail handled ahead of time.
