PRINT • CUT • PUNCH • LACE

1. Download your printable pack.

2. Print your chosen pages on A4 or US Letter paper.

3. Cut around each design, leaving a little extra space where needed.

4. Laminate for extra durability if desired.

5. Use a standard hole punch on the marked circles.

6. Thread with yarn, twine or a shoelace.

Please note: Cards intentionally vary in shape and size. Some designs are provided individually on a page, while others share a page. This allows larger or more detailed shapes, such as the Australian map and surfboard, to remain practical for cutting and threading.

Some intricate shapes may require additional adult assistance when cutting and preparing.

- Fine motor skills and hand coordination
