Only two of these words are "ett"-words, barn and år.
The rest of them are "en"-words, including the weekdays, months and seasons, although months are used like this:
"En februarimånad", or "en septembermånad". That is, with the word for month being put after the months name when preceded by "en".
You can look up the other words in the dictionary mrbicrevise linked to=)

And yes, for the other words, the dictionary doesn't say if it's en or ett... That's too bad. I will try to find another dictionary.
