My Idea for Old Alphie Cards

A few years ago we bought our daughter an Alphie because it was on sale and she loved robots. We did not expect her to use it for learning right away because she was only about 2 when she received it. From then until recently Alphie has been abused. He has been dropped, slobbered on, and thrown. His speech became garbled and eventually he could no longer talk. Unfortunately, even after multiple trips to the "hospital" he didn't make it. Me, being the great deal shopper that I am had already picked up 3 sets of cards to go with Alphie. After his demise I began to think about how I could use those cards that I already purchased. Here is what I came up with.

I decided to take some of the cards and cut them up. Now we can use these Alphie cards for our own little learning games. These Alphie Booster pack include all sorts of fun things to do. There are matching cards, numbers, letter sounds, colors, rhyming words, and even musical instruments.

I am a Graphics Designer!

For years now (lets say 4ish) I have been working with digital images. Learning bits and pieces about editing software as I went along. I even had a job where I was the only graphics designer employed at the company for a while. Personally, I never felt comfortable using that label. I had never tried to create something completely from scratch. I had never made an animal or a pumpkin or anything. Most of things I created before just involved some cute fonts and colors.

Well look at me now!!!! I am so exciting about the images, that I spent the last 5 days creating! Hopefully, I will begin to feel more comfortable referring to myself as a graphics designer. I mean look at all of these cute thanksgiving things. I know there are tones of other people who do this better than me, but that doesn't mean I'm not doing it or don't deserve that label. Right?

I created this for my Teachers pay Teachers store. I hope you all like them as much as I do. Hopefully my Snowy Winter pack will be just as cute and available by my personal deadline (Thanksgiving). Check out my store, On the way to Mrs. Bearfield's Class and tell me what you think.

My 1st Teachers Pay Teachers Freebie!

I am super excited about this new challenge! If you know me, you know that I am currently studying to be an Elementary School Teacher but I have a long way to go. I also teach my 3 year old, who can now recognize 20 words btw. I am constantly creating worksheets and other fun things to help her learn. Once I heard about Teachers Pay Teachers I knew that it was a perfect match for me!

If you are not familiar with this site, they create a marketplace for lesson plans and other educational products created by teachers, for teachers! TPT also requires that every seller lists at least 1 product for free! I think that is one of the best features of the site.

With all of that being said I have finally launched my own Teachers pay Teachers store, On the way to Mrs. Bearfield's Class!

The store title has a double meaning for me. I am on the way to becoming a teacher and having my own class and once I have my class I will likely use many of the items from my store. Cute right?

Currently my store only has 3 items but I already have several other packets that I am working on, so keep checking back! I also hope to post a few tutorials to help others get started in the future! Hopefully once my store is more full I can host a few giveaways too!
