A friend of mine is a Nanny, this is a job she has been doing for quite awhile now and has a lot of experience with children, especially considering they grow up and she has to move from child to child. One thing the kids always want to do or be involved with is arts and crafts projects and activities. For Thanksgiving she usually does one of those “hand print” turkeys where you trace the child’s hand on printable papers. She then places glue along the outline of the turkey and lets the child put feathers on the “turkey”, gems, stickers and whatever else the child wants.

Children LOVE this stuff. It’s all about letting them customize the drawing or the activity. It makes them feel important because they feel like big kids! For Christmas she will either draw an outline of a tree herself or if the child can do it on their own she will let them draw it. Then, she lets them decorate the printable paper with all the fixings like stickers, stars, glitter and anything else the child wants. A few weeks ago it was the child’s parents’ anniversary. They had been married for 25 years (happily).

So she bought some heavy weight paper, and let him make a painted hand print project which he then painted and signed with his name on his own. She then got a matte for the picture and a really nice frame and gave it to them as “his” gift. Very cute! In my opinion, though you can’t just use ANY paper for any project. You are going to have to use certain kinds of paper for certain activities. If you guys are printing something on the printer, you might want to look into printable paper and heavyweight paper.

These are papers that obviously can be printed on with various types of printers available on the market right now and they also will be durable enough to layer multiple colors onto the paper – great for customized cards to Mom and Dad. On the other hand, if you are doing handmade Turkey’s, drawings, sequins or anything else like that, you might want to look into buying custom stock sheets which will let you choose from different colors and different materials such as construction paper, glossy, matte, tracing paper, etc.

This isn’t just about looks, it’s also about thickness and quality as well. For drawings and paintings, you probably won’t have to go with a thicker or heavyweight paper. Instead, you could go more customized or you could go a little thinner on the thickness. And finally, you will also want to take a look at various custom paper size options as well. These paper stores have ALL the sizes you might need for your project – big or small they have got you covered! It doesn’t matter if you are a nanny, or if it’s your own children, with materials such as this – you won’t miss one special moment!
