Where can I find cutout pictures and labels for my son?

Question

I heard that it helps if you label items with pictures, that kids learn where things go, and what they are. I am trying to find labels and pictures of kitchen items, such as pots and pans, plates, glasses or cups, and silverwear. Can you please help me? Or at least lead me in the right direction?

Answer 1

The following link will bring you to a site that has lots of pictures: http://www.enchantedlearning.com/Aisfor.shtml

The best way is to have pictures of things you actually have in your home. If you have a digital camera, take pics of objects in your house, so that they are exactly the same, not a representation of the thing. More concrete is better for young children, who may not have the capability to distinguish between the photo and the object if they are not exactly the same. Print out the pics from you camera, mount them (using glue sticks) on construction paper or cardstock, and then cover them with contact paper or have them laminated (at Staples/Kinkos). Then you can put them up wherever you need them. Pictures work because it is a visual reminder of where things belong, and it encourages the child to put things away independently. We use picture labels in our preschool classroom, with two year olds, and it works wonders. If you don't have a digital camera, a regular film one will work fine, too. You can also print out the pics from the website above, or use PECS (the Picture Exchange Communication System).

I think a better idea would be to sit down with him and draw your own labels, that way he feels like he helped and he can be proud of his artwork, and also put it to good use. Great idea though, I think the labels will really be helpful :-)

Answer 3

Try a Google Images search.

Sometimes if you include the word "clip art" in your search, you will find more basic pictures that will be easier for a child to understand.
