I take pride in my kids’ hard work at preschool. Enough that each year I’ve invested in new methods to display their favorites. Art Frames from Pottery Barn Kids, Art Wire from Land of Nod, a file of scans to create into a photo book produced by a site such as Picaboo. And, still, with all the options of display, I lacked a place to store. Certainly the T-file system wouldn’t work. My spy kids found tossed art work too easily. And the big cardboard box that collected was not only full, but an eyesore.
This summer, I found SchoolFolio. A huge portfolio, its made of thick plastic. Measuring 24″ by 28″ by 3.5″, with one per child they should easily store all of each boys’ flat artwork through the preschool years, hopefully beyond.
Oh! and the pride the boys take in storing their work! The portfolio has a 5×7 photo pocket frame on the outside, allowing for a picture or a handmade name tag to be inserted. Available in 4 bright colors and themes (like Starry Night and Polka Dotty) you can select the right one to personalize their schooling experience. With closures simple enough for the children to open, storing artwork has become a part of the kids’ routine. No longer do works of art pile in our kitchen collection center (errr… mail organization center, errr… piles), but they are put away as soon as they are shown-off.
Take it from me, if you have kids in preschool or elementary school, you need SchoolFolios. And for less than $30, its a completely worthwhile investment.
Also available are All-in-ones. A larger master box with 6 smaller boxes inside to divide the 6 years of elementary school, or however your little creator best organizes. (Have 6 kids? One box each!)
All boxes can be stored vertically or horizontally, keeping the artist’s work preserved for years. Customers can receive a 10% discount on their order by selecting MOMMIES WITH STYLE on the affiliate sales pull-down menu on the order page.
