Why teachers love a digital class calendar

No sweets to buy for 30 children, no allergies to check, no paper calendar that gets torn. You prepare the doors once and open one together each morning. Doors only open on their day, so nobody can peek ahead.

Make it part of the lesson: a maths riddle, a science experiment with household materials, a reading tip, a short video, a vote on the class party snacks. Pupils who are ill or on holiday stay part of it from home. Parents can follow along with the same link, without any accounts or personal data.

Free to start

Text and video doors are included in the free plan, enough for a lovely class calendar with stories, riddles and clips.

Works on the whiteboard

Big doors, clear numbers and full screen: easy to open together in front of the class.

Safe for children

No accounts for pupils, no ads in the calendar and only hashed IP addresses.

Ideas for your 24 doors

Twelve ideas to mix and match. The number shows a door where the idea fits well, the label shows the door type.

Text

Experiment of the day

Materials and steps for a safe mini experiment: balloon static, salt crystals, a film canister rocket.

Riddle or brain teaser

A maths or logic puzzle with the answer revealed after a click.
