Since it’s not long until school is back in session I’ve had rush of orders for the personalised gym bags. I keep forgetting to take pictures of them but am pleased that for this gorgeous flower fairy print bag I’ve just completed that I got some snaps:
I’m almost caught up on present orders and so the bags are now on a 4-5 day waiting list (so still plenty of time for back to school in September). Get your orders in now before I’m so backed-up I have to place a hold on orders!
School’s out for summer but before you know it the kids will be back-to-school. Why not send them back in style with these simply adorable personalised and custom-made bespoke swag bag style P.E. / Gym Back to School Drawstring Bags. Each bag measures approx 14″ long by 12″ wide, perfect for you child’s gym shoes, shorts and sports shirt. You choose from a selection of beautiful and lively fabrics for the main bag, let us know your child’s initials (max 3 characters) and we’ll custom handmade letter patches for the front of the bag in your chosen color of quality cotton. Choose your own colour of Rayon twisted cord and silky habutae lining and your bag is complete!

Versatile and fun fish to help your child with number recognition.
What You Need:
Colourful Card
Pencil
Felt Tip Pens
Scissors
Hole Punch
Optional:
Paperclips
Small Magnet
Laminator
Create your own fish template to draw around or use the ones below (click on each image to open a new printable version)
Cut out 10 fish, using the felt tip pens write numbers 1 to 10 on them. Include the corresponding amount of spots if you like.
Get your kids to colour them in.
Suggestion: Sequins and other such bits and pieces glued on would look great on these aswell.
If you have a laminator to make the fish more durable you could laminate them – it also creates a nice shiny finish. It’s not necessary if you cannot get hold of one however.
Punch a hole in the top of each fish.
Once the fish are made you can attach a paper clip to each one and using a small magnet tied to a piece of string play number fishing games.
You can use the fish in conjunction with rhymes to help your child with number recognition:
One, Two, Three, Four, Five,
Once I caught a fish alive.
Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten,
Then I threw it back again.
Why did you let it go?
Because it bit my finger so.
Which finger did it bite?
This little finger on my right!
For my daughter’s bedroom, I strung the fish together to create this fun and lively fishy bunting.
