When your child draws on a dry erase pocket or laminated page instead of on the printable, you can use the same sheet over and over again!įun fact: I worked at a copy center right after college. What’s a dry erase pocket? It’s like a page protector, only better! It’s way sturdier than a standard page protector, which means it lasts longer. They were printed on the same printer – only the paper was different. The difference is even more notable in real life, but in the picture below the bingo board on the left was down on presentation paper, the one on the right was done on cardstock. Pictures are more clear and vibrant on presentation paper than on regular paper or cardstock.
What is presentation paper? It’s a heavy weight paper/lightweight cardstock with a special coating for images. Instead, print on presentation paper or cardstock and then laminate the pages or place them in a dry erase pocket. If you print them on flimsy printer paper and hand them to a young child, they probably won’t last long! Using the right materials can really make or break a printables.
