Sometimes we get questions about how to print files. Of course, it will all depend on your computer and especially, printer, but here are a few guidelines to follow.
First, we always recommend using Adobe Reader. Other generic PDF readers can cause problems, such as having empty spaces or black bars present when printing.
Second, make sure your printer settings are correct. To get the full-size cards, make sure you choose “actual size” or your printer’s similar setting.
Finally, double-check that the “print on both sides” dialog box is unchecked.
These two simple suggestions should help you easily get these printed and ready for your child.

Valentine Books For Kids
First up, are books. Reading aloud to children is a great way to help them develop a love of reading themselves. It also helps them build communication skills and focus on what they are reading. Reading aloud also encourages curiosity and imagination, which can help improve attention span and listening skills!
