Lacing Cards to print and laminate for preschool children ( Educational Resources ) from www.Resource4Preschool.com

Lacing is a great activity for developing the fine motor skills, improving hand / eye coordination and focus.


Easy Instructions for the sets - Print and cut out the lacing cards onto card stock paper (recommendations: Follow the individualized directions for each set).  Laminate, and cut carefully around the edges. Using a single hole punch, punch holes around the edges (the gray hole areas).  This area is just inside the line - If modifications are necessary - follow the shape as much or as little as it would be appropriate for the age of your child(ren). Remember that younger children might need a 
simplified outline, while the older (or more advanced) student may be able to lace a more complicated design.


Use a shoe lace or colored yarn (spun wool) with the ends 'solidified' with either sticky tape or white glue to 
thread the shapes a lot easier (with less difficulty). Older children can use a large holed blunt needle 
and a bit more yarn.


Beginning Sound Lacing Set at www.Resource4Preschool.com contains 27 PDF printable lacing cards.


The cards are designed to have added strength, since each card will be doubled thickness of the recommended card stock weighted paper.


The lacing card set includes a generic apple while the rest of the set includes an appropriate picture with the written word near it on the front of the lacing card.


The set includes:  apple, ball, car, dog, elephant, fish, globe, horse, iguana, juice, kangaroo, lamb, monkey, nose, octopus, penguin, quail, rabbit, snake, top, umbrella, vase, worm, x-ray, yams and zebra.


The set is beautiful and easy to complete.  The graphics used are fantastic (check out the FAQ page for the variety of clip art utilized in this set).


The set at www.Resource4Preschool.com retails for $9.97 .... and it is definitely worth it.  


You download (save it) the zipped file with purchase.  Once you have it saved onto an external drive (my recommendation) ... you unzip the folder and click on the PDF.  It opens and you print off what ever you want.  


The nice thing is that if you (or your child) loses or tears up a piece - the entire set is not 'trashed'.  You have the right to print off another piece!  


Sure .... you cannot resale the set, nor can you give it away in any form (why would you - that is the same as stealing - just like in the music or movie business) .... But .... this set is able to be used by you for your students for years to come.  It is always available at your fingertips (okay..... in your hard drive).


Again - it is definitely worth $9.97 .... but if you use the coupon code - LACECARD75   You will save around 75%.  This is not even a clearance ..... You actually will get the entire PDF for only $2.49
