1. They get married one week and one day after the last day of school.

2. #7 starts the week after the wedding. It's not entirely clear (from what I could find) how long goes by before the group actually starts, but my impression is that there's one week between the wedding and the beginning of the play group.

3. The Sea City trip is the first two weeks of August. I think the play group either ends right before they all scatter on vacation, or maybe a week before.

Yay, nobody else answered before me. I hope nobody else was going through trying to get these answers before I did.

Also, it might help if I say that it seems the play group is basically all of July. The Perkinses move in on or around July 15th.

Elizabeth and Watson's wedding was at the very end of June. The Perkins' wanted to move in on July 15th, and Elizabeth said, "Watson and I are going to have to get married at the end of the month so we can move into the Brewers' house two weeks later."

Can't help with the rest, but good luck!

Some more possibly-helpful clues:
Janine is mentioned as fifteen at the beginning of #5, which starts at the end of April and seems to go through about the first week of June. I don't think Janine is mentioned at all in #6, but that book starts about a week into June. And then at the beginning of #7 she's sixteen.

Could this mean that, since Claudia's birthday is also in July, the Kishis have sex only once a year?

And in order not to be completely irrelevant: how old is Janine when the Kishis bring Claudia home in Claudia's book? Is it mentioned that she "just turned three" or something like that?

Claudia's Book says "Mimi stayed home to take care of my older sister Janine, who was three and a half at the time." So that hinders rather than helps, and I guess it should be ignored.

Yes, I just noticed on the BSC wiki that someone added that Janine is 3 1/2 years older than Claudia. But if Claud's birthday is July 11th, then that can't be right!
