I have to say that these look really cool, as does the website from where they were downloaded. I don’t have kids (yet) to test them out, but the idea seems to be a good one.

Link is not working again today! I would love to have these. I can tolerate this type of clutter if it helps teach the concepts, etc.

I love these cards – great idea. After I first saw them on Amy’s site, I made my own version that works for our family. Instead of individual cards, I’ve made (laminated) AM & PM posters for both of my children. I added each task, including brushing teeth, getting dressed etc plus chores, and from day one it’s made our household run a lot more smoothly. The kids love taking ownership of their little jobs and ticking off each task as they go and I don’t have to continually remind [read: nag] them what to do next.

Am I strange in thinking that these would be cute printed on good paper and framed & placed in a kid’s bathroom?

Whew!I think some people might need to lighten up. Even if you don’t like the particular order of these cards, go check out Amy’s site. She has tons of free downloads, and there is a great variety. Plus, I think Amy is da’ bomb!

Well, Erin, thanks alot!

It’s 1:28am here in California and I’m still up thanks to this post. The original link led me to a dozen others, all with amazing downloads. I have seriously been doing this for at least 3 hours.

Tomorrow I will go through all the downloads and organize them. I mostly downloaded labels (vintage, retro, seasonal) and notecards which I hope will come in handy, as my time will not be cluttered up looking for appropriate stationary or having to run out and buy some.

:0D

WOW!! Of all the days my server goes down… I get featured on your site:-) Thanks for the great feature!! My site is back online now.

These were meant for my son in particular, then I shared it with my readers. It’s funny, he is 6 years old and even thought the order was odd… he thought he should brush his hair after putting on his clothes too as one of your commentors said. ha!

I am working on more and will change the order then. This was for him brush his teeth and hair together in the bathroom… otherwise I knew he would forget once he left the bathroom. I usually fix my kids hair when they come downstairs for breakfast anyway. No matter what order, these cards are meant to help kids learn to do things on their own. My three year old can read the words now too:-) It really works for my family.

To those who can’t access the site — I tried earlier today and it was very slow, and it did finally load. But I could never access the downloads. And now it appears to be broken — hopefully it is just maintenance on the site and it will be running again soon! Maybe too many of us were interested!

The link is not working for me either. Is the site under construction? I tried using google and it found the site, but when I clicked on their link, same thing- couldn’t access the site.

I am trying it, but the link is not working for me…. is this a regionally limited link?

They look MUCH better than the ones I have attached to the fridge to remind my ADHD son the order of getting ready in the morning — he seriously still needs cue cards after 7 years of schooldays, not his fault.
