Perfect for when you just need a starting point for play!

These cards are beautifully produced and full of good ideas, clearly explained and with any potential risks highlighted. Ideal for those days when you are tired and need someone else to do the thinking! I'm a SEN teacher too and there are lots of activities in there perfect for my pupils as well as those suited to my little girl. Overall, really chuffed with my purchase and have been recommending them to other mums!

The Kindness Elves

Lovely idea, my little girl loves her elves and the beautiful house they arrived in. I gave as an Easter gift, lovely story too. Really pleased with purchase. This would make a beautiful birrthday gift for a boy or girl, it is so important to be kind and this concept teaches these important values.

Play activity cards

Beautifully presented cards. Amazing size to share with a group of children so they can visually see the activity they have chosen.
Would definitely recommend.
Only downside is that they have the same activity just with different ingredients which takes up a card space for what could be used for a different activity.

I am so happy I finally bought these cards.

I have been eyeing up these cards for a few months but wasn't sure if they were worth the money as I have lots of books and internet subscriptions for activity ideas. However, the idea of going back to work after maternity leave and jiggling my time between the care of 26 nursery children and my own baby was the decider for me. Anything to save some time. I am so happy I finally bought these little cards.

Having this mountain of ideas at hand, all in one place is so convenient. Maybe I could have accumulated all of my ideas and resources but after months of not doing it for myself, I don't think it was ever going to happen! Also, these cards are such lovely quality. They are big enough to be used on display at school and sturdy enough for me not to worry about the children destroying them! The details of the activity and resources on the reverse is also such a wonderful idea, concise information and all in one place.

Being on a card also means that I can shuffle them in the binding ring to mix up the order I present these activities to the children, and also keep some favourites and aspirations at the front as fail safes, when I feel brave, and when the resources become available!

I am so glad I took the plunge and bought both sets too. I can't wait to put them into action in school and when my little one is old enough, she will love them too!

Wow! Love this for my preschool class!

It has everything needed for the classroom! Elves are so cute. The house is perfect! This definitely helps the kiddos understand and apply kindness—not just at Christmas, but throughout the whole year. Thank you!

The Kindness Elves™ Set

Love

These cards are helpful for engaging in imaginative play with my two older toddlers (4 & 2). I love that the options are all in one spot, no googling or trying to remember what saved file I have something in and it’s done adorably in a way that catches my oldest’s attention. The jumbo toddler safe design and wipeable style is very appreciated. My oldest has a lot of fun picking out her activity for the day and it’s created a sweet time that we all look forward to. Anna has been really helpful on Instagram too when I didn’t quite understand a direction or conversion. My 1 critique is that, for us, the binder ring does tend to open easily so I think we may end up placing our cards in individual card sheets for easier access... LOVE these cards and highly recommend.

Invitation to play cards

We received these a couple of week ago- beautifully packaged and really easy to flick through. My kids absolutely loved the chocolate oobleck and rainbow spaghetti.
Such a brilliant idea, especially when we are stuck at home so much at the moment. Lots of fun ideas for us to try out over the spring and summer.
