I have seen the magnetic calendars for kids that are very colorful but a little too small to use and a real scheduling calendar. So, I was wondering... could I take a plain one from an office supply store (one that has bigger daily squares) and decorate it to look cute and fun instead of black and white boring? What kind of paint would stick? Obviously I would only be able to decorate the edges and that's okay. Any thoughts on how to go about doing this? It doesn't have to last forever, but I don't want to be repainting it every 6 months. Maybe if I just decorated it with stickers or something else?

Do you think they would be permanent on a white board? That would be perfect if they are since they come in so many fun colors.

Yes, they are. In fact, I've used them accidentally, thinking I'd picked up a dry erase marker.
