Transportation Number Flashcards

Even though I am not teaching this year and still have years to go before my kids are in school, I am LOVING all of the fabulous Back to School ideas out there!  I have been drooling over all of the cute flashcards I've seen...

I saw this ABC post at The Crafting Chicks, and I got to work right away!!  I made these same adorable ABC flashcards, and even printed extra sets for cousins for Christmas gifts.  (Yes, I am getting an early start!)  I paid for a digital kit, but it was definitely worth it!
Next, I found these adorable ABC flashcards from Homemade By Jill.  Stinkin' cute!

But I really wanted some number flashcards for my Little Man... so I decided to make some of my own!!  Of course I created them with a theme Little Man can relate to--transportation!  After creating them in Photoshop, I sized them as 4x6 and printed them out at Costco.  Little Man discovered these all on his own after we picked them up, and he was going nuts over the ambulances, fire trucks, cars, motorcycles, etc.!  Hopefully these will help us begin to lay a foundation for learning numbers!  Here is a quick sneak peek:

I used some clip art from DJ Inker's and some freebies from the World Wide Web!  I used the adorable flashcards from Crystal Wilkerson at Jessica Sprague.  Too cute!

Have a fabulous weekend!

  12. Hi Alison! I posted a link to this post/your cute cards today. Thank you. I had to laugh when I saw your banner tagline "Finding beauty in my blunders"... I just suffered two glue gun burns working on my latest project. (-:
