FEEDBACK WANTED: Activity Calendar

Hi fellow Zazzlers!

I'm beginning work on the last portion of my Cute Snail project, which is to create a calendar composed of 12 of the Cute Snail drawings I have completed throughout the course of this year. At first, I was just going to create the standard calendar filled with colored drawings and space for an affirmation or notes. But in my futzing around attempting to find harmonious layouts for the colored drawings, I realized that creating a coloring and activity calendar might be the more useful and practical way to go. Wanted to get your feedback on the layout I have going so far. Questions I have are: 1). Is this current layout fun? 2). Is this current layout useful? 3). Is the paper used to print the calendars ideal for coloring with crayon, 4). Can I insert a word search puzzle without getting busted for copyright infringement? Your feedback on these questions as well as any improvements i can make to improve the usefulness would be helpful. Below is a picture of what i've got going so far. Thanks in advance. Cute Snail and I wish you a SNAIL-TASTIC day! 🌱🌻🌷🐌

I looked at the description for the calendar paper - I don't have a Zazzle calendar to check at the moment, but I believe it is a semi-glossy finish. Crayons might not be the best medium to choose, but perhaps colored pencils and/or pens would be okay ???

I did see this in the description: This product is not intended for children under 8 years of age as it may have a sharp point -- I don't think this would matter to most, as the page would be torn off after the month is ended to work on the picture/puzzle.

It’s super cute. I watched a YouTube video where an Etsy POD creator recorded an unpacking video on a calendar from Printify. She noted that the paper was high quality and quite thick. I don’t know the source of Zazzle’s calendar printer, but maybe you can find a Zazzler on YouTube who’s created a similar video. It’s worth a google search. Unless you’re creating your own word search puzzles, using one created by someone other than you would be a copyright infringement. Maybe CreativeFabrica has some you can download and use safely.
