bullet What have you created with Vista Print?
bullet Below are some of the items I have created at Vista Print:

 Customized Rules Poster

This poster was created using images from Vista Print's resource library, I also added one picture of my own.  I display this poster in my large group area at the children's eye level and refer to it often throughout the year.  You can read all about the rules in our classroom on the Rules Page.

   

How to Prepare Your Child for Pre-K Brochure (Front):

We hand this out to parents at our Pre-K Registration in the spring and again when they come to orientation in August.

 

How to Prepare Your Child for Pre-K Brochure (Back):

   

Rainbow Words Oversized Postcard (front)

You can send these home to parents to explain the Rainbow Words program or put them in the BEAR books

Personalized Business Cards:

These are good to hand out to parents so they can keep your contact info with them at all times in case of emergencies.  I also hand them out to colleagues at professional conferences.

   

Notepads:

I use these to write notes home to parents or to leave notes for colleagues when necessary.

 

Congratulations Postcards:

I created several different postcards for different skills.  Each time a child masters a certain skill he or she receives a Congratulations Postcard.

   

Pre-K Back-to-School Checklist (front)

 

   

Pre-K Back-to-School Checklist (back)

We place this checklist inside the Orientation Packet for parents and distribute it at our Pre-K Orientation event before school starts.  The checklist includes everything that is necessary for the first day of school. 

   

Personalized Post-It Notes

 

   

Thank You Postcards (front)

Back is blank for personal message

These come in very handy!  Every time a student would bring me a gift I struggled to send home a Thank You note because I was too busy.  Now I just grab a handy Thank You postcard, they come in packs of 250!  The back side is blank so I can include a personal message. 

   

Personalized Magnet Business Cards

I hand these out to parents at our Pre-K Orientation before school starts.  I encourage parents to keep it on their refrigerator so they have quick access if they need to contact me. 

   

bullet Is this a scam?  It sounds too good to be true.
bullet You have every right to be skeptical, I thought it was too good to be true too, however I have ordered from Vista Print every single year for the last several years without incident.   Don't forget, you will need to pay for shipping so it's best to order in one single order instead of several small orders to keep costs down.  Although, sometimes they do offer free shipping so keep your eyes open for their e-mail deals.

bullet Where can I find the free stuff on the Vista Print website?
bullet It can sometimes be difficult to find all the free items at Vista Print.  Their website is set up to show each individual user a different screen at each visit.  Sometimes you see some free items and other times you will see others.  The best thing to do is to sign-up for an account and then you will receive e-mails advertising their free offers, the links in those e-mails will take you directly to the deals.
