Checklists

Write the date beside each first as it happens. The list is for keepsakes, not assessment: every baby develops at their own pace, and some skip steps entirely.

Printing tips

Print at 100% (“Actual size”), not “Fit to page”. Margins are at least half an inch, so home printers won't clip anything. Thicker matte paper or card works best for cards and wall art.
