"Puss in Boots" - A brilliant example of Cardooo's "Story Cards" |
We took a look at the fabulous "Puss in Boots" story card, which is ideal for a girl or boy birthday. Inside the card as well as the usual greeting, you'll find a story for children to read (or in my case, for a daft dad to read out in a variety of silly voices). Combining great potted stories with fabulous illustrations and sneaking in a learning opportunity where you definitely wouldn't expect one, to children Cardooo cards aren't stale and educational, they're fun and story-filled.
It's great to find a group of folk who are passionate about what they do, and produce a brilliant and innovative range of products like:
- Activity Cards - Cards with stories, games quizzes and activities inside
- Sticker cards - As you'd expect, a ton of brilliant stickers to stick all over your card - with an 8 page booklet and 3 sheets of stickers in each
- Z Cards - Fabulous panoramic Z-Cards that fold out and contain stickers for decoration
- Doodle cards - My favourites, cards to scribble and create on
- Advent Calendar Christmas Cards - Count down to christmas and get a big surprise on Christmas Eve
- Journey Buddies - Perfect for a spot of travelling with stickers, quizzes, comics and stories (and a set of colouring pencils too! Fab!)
As you can see, it's quite a range but stop by the website for more cards and ideas including a range of Doctor Who cards, perfect for celebrating the show's 50th birthday with!
