2022 Instant Happy Notes Boxed Calendar: 365 Reminders to Smile and Shine! (Happiness Daily Calendar, Inspirational Gift for Women, Desk Gift for Him) (Inspire Instant Happiness Calendars & Gifts)

Of all of the wonderful and some not-so-wonderful items we have purchased over the years, this is the only one that my entire family insisted upon that we write a review. Sadly, this "happy" calendar is filled with pages that read something that are supposed to motivational but fall flat such as "Pizza Thursday" or "Breathe." Take our word for it, if you're looking for an inspirational quote of the day, this is not it. If you're looking for a good laugh because someone actually assembled this as an inspirational, motivational calendar, this is for you.

I’ve had the Happy Notes calendar since 2015, and I always enjoyed the simple “note” format (text and maybe a quick doodle.) This year has more artwork, the font is different, and the color scheme is more robust. It looks like a smaller version of “Today’s Going To Be A Great Day.”I (used to) enjoy the simplicity of this one - a quick note that it’s gonna be a good one, and go about your way. And that’s what made it so great...if you look at the calendar from 2018 and prior, it’s different in a good way.I flipped through them and it’s ok. The notes themselves are good, but without that stripped-down aesthetic, the message gets a bit lost.

This is a real nice page-a-day calendar. I've gotten 5 different calendars to give as gifts. This one is a really nice one. I like that the pages are colorful and bright and fill almost the entire page. The pages appear to be attached / glued well to the top of the calendar (unlike a different calendar I bought). My only complaint is that the calendar was shipped in a bubble envelope so one corner of the box was dented. I got this to give as a gift. I'm not taking off any stars because it's not the fault of the calendar maker, and the calendar itself isn't dented. It's just the box, which will probably be tossed away after the receiver pulls the calendar out. But I'll still have to apologize that the box was dented in shipment.

Aug 2021 second review: decided to purchase the 2022 version, because this Instant Happy Notes page-a-day calendar has been an absolute delight to tear away & read each brand new day! Who doesn’t want to start their day with a smile? The colorful, upbeat words of encouragement have been enjoyed by myself, family & friends this year!! Let the positive vibes continue another year!! I definitely recommend you purchase this page-of-positivity-a-day!! Can’t wait for 01 Jan 2022 so I can continue the Instant Happy Notes!! ...Original 2020 review for 2021 calendar: A light & simple daily read. Never gets deep or intense. But with how 2020 has kept trying to take away our smiles and positive outlooks.... this page-a-day calendar is the type of HAPPY we need!! Its colorful daily pages also add to its viewers’ visual enjoyment! A completely family-friendly page-a-day calendar.

I was really disappointed by this calendar. I really wanted daily, uplifting quotes for myself, and to share with my employees. There are some good quotes, however, there are also some strange ones as well. For example...there are A LOT that are fill in the blank..."today, list three things you are grateful for"...While that all seems nice, it's not what I was looking for. I have a lot of employees that come in my office and get candy and mints, and I was actually embarrassed by some of these, to the point I would hide the calendar until I found a day I liked. In March I actually ended up going through the entire year and removing those that I liked (which was only about 10).

I buy this daily calendar every year for my mom as a Christmas present. She absolutely LOVES getting this present and keeps the calendar above her sink in the kitchen and changes it daily. Only problem is, she loves it so much that now she expects it every year. :) Highly recommend this cute little calendar.

I love this! I had this on my desk at school. I would put some around my dry erase board to share with my students. They would get excited when they noticed a new message up. We would then take a couple of minutes to discuss the message. I am going to laminate them and put them outside my classroom next year.

I buy these each year for my mom for a Christmas present and she LOVES them. She looks forward to getting this present each year. Each little daily reminder is so sweet and a great reminder to be happy. Highly recommend these happy notes :)

It comes with quotes, simple positive reminders (such as "enjoy the little things" or "Treat yourself to that fancy coffee"), and some special date reminders (such as kindness day)Some of the quotes are great, really inspiring. And the good part is that you can remove the date and hang them on the fridge or wall, or use them to personalize letters, journals, notebooks, diaries, etc

Bought for a present for a friend and they loved it

Outer box came damaged. This was supposed to be a gift to someone to be more positive in life. I can’t give them a damaged box - That’s a bad start!

I have been buying these every year for many years for my daughter...and it never disappoints

Love this message a day calendar. Full colour inspirational messages for every day of the year. Great way to start the day. 😃
