🎉 Why does a birthday calendar help you never forget a birthday again?
Do you know that feeling? You scroll through your phone and suddenly you see: “Today is the birthday of…” – oops! No card, no app, no present arranged. You are too late. With a birthday calendar on the wall, that is a thing of the past. Because the older we get, the fuller our heads become. And the more important it becomes to keep celebrating those beautiful moments.
A birthday calendar is a classic for a reason: it works. By hanging it somewhere visible – in the kitchen, the bathroom or at your desk – you can see at a glance who’s birthday is coming up. You get that little, friendly reminder that helps you take action in time.

How to Make It Easier to Remember Birthdays? 10 Tips...
With a birthday calendar as a basis, it becomes a lot more fun and easier to remember birthdays. Below you will find 10 smart tips to never forget a birthday again.
1. Hang a birthday calendar in a visible place
Visibility = memory. A beautiful birthday calendar is not only functional, but also a cozy addition to your interior. Hang it in your toilet and everyone will look at it (and yes, even your visitors, haha). View all birthday calendars in my webshop for your favorite.
2. Birthday calendar + birth years = smart planning
Include not only the name of the birthday person on your birthday calendar, but also the year of birth. This way you can see at a glance whether someone is turning 30, 40 or 50. Handy for an extra festive surprise!
3. Combine digital with a physical birthday calendar
Use a digital diary as an extra reminder, but rely on your birthday calendar as a base. Set notifications for a week in advance and on the day itself.
4. Use social media as a supplement, not a replacement
Facebook often lets you know whose birthday it is, but not always on time. Don't get caught off guard - your birthday calendar remains your reliable helper.
5. Check your birthday calendar every month
Make it a habit to look at your birthday calendar at the beginning of the month. That way you can see which birthdays are coming up and you can arrange a card or gift in time.
6. Always have a stock of cards at home
A birthday calendar works even better if you keep a stack of cards with it. Check out my birthday card collection for fun designs that you can use at any time.
7. Keep your mailing list up to date with your birthday calendar
There is nothing more annoying than a returned birthday card. Keep an up-to-date address list with your birthday calendar, possibly digitally or in a notebook next to it.
8. Don't forget the stamps
Buy a sheet of stamps in advance or use a stamp code from PostNL. Keep them close to your birthday calendar so you are always ready to send.
9. Ask those around you for help
Hang an extra birthday calendar in a central place in your home so others can help you remember. Or coordinate with friends or family about important birthdays.
10. Late? Don't stress!
