A little guidance before you begin

Can younger children join in?

Yes. A grown-up can cut the pieces while a child colours, chooses and sticks. Supervise scissors and small pieces, and use child-appropriate materials. The finished picture does not have to match an example.

Can I use these at home or in a classroom?

Yes. Download and print copies for your household or your own teaching group. The core resources are free, with no registration. Please share the resource link rather than uploading the files elsewhere.

Can I show these without printing?

Picture-card packs have a picture-play view with names or answers to reveal. Stories can be read on screen. Crafts show a finished example to discuss together; print the scene and pieces for the hands-on activity.
