My sister has a bunch of kids. Sometimes those kids need a little help remembering their daily duties. Sister likes when the kids can get those duties done with a little independence and consistency.
She asked me if I would enjoy making some charts for the kids (the 4 year old in particular) to help them have success in accomplishing said tasks.
Um. Are you kidding me...a chance to rock my scrapbooking tools and colored pencils....sign me up! She sent me her lists:
I got to work on finding some simple clip art line drawings of each item to help my pre-reading little niece know what needed to happen from first to last by looking at the pictures, busted out my trusty colored pencils and cut them all out:
Some cute patterned cardstock paper as the base, along with coordinating solid cardstock to mount each picture/label individually (makes it stand out on the page a bit):
I laid them all out to make sure they fit and then stuck 'em down! Added some number stickers next to each label, laminated and done....
The laminated cards are great for writing on (and later wiping off) with a dry erase marker...my hope is that my lovely niece can cross off the numbers as she finishes her task to keep herself on track...it's fun to be an independent woman:
