Using Your Computer to Help Make Going Back to School Fun


The arrivalof the new school year brings an organizational challenge - a dash of carpoolrides here and a couple of unmade lunches there. This year, have some fun whilewrangling it all in with these back to school projects. They'll spice thingsup, make you look good, and hopefully get everyone to school on time. All youneed is a computer, a printer and a little imagination.

Stay organized with a homemade calendar that includes seasonal photos of yourlittle ones. Most word processing programs offer a calendar template. Simplyadd your digitized photos and some colorful clipart and you're good to go.Believe it or not, you can run paper lunch bags through some inkjet printers.Simply create a document based on the dimensions of the bag then add yourlittle student's name and some funky clipart. You can also print colorfullittle notes that you place in their lunch bags to give your child a boostwhile you're apart during the day.

Some word processing and most desktop publishing programs come with bookmarktemplates. Create your bookmark and print it on card stock or glossy photopaper to make it more durable. Your local computer store will likely have aselection of laser and inkjet labels. Simply follow the instructions on thepackage and turn them into book labels, cheery stickers, nametags and more.
