Where are the products manufactured?
Kiddaroo products are made right here in Australia to ensure that we offer only the highest quality. The Presentation Portfolios are durable and the Stickers actually stick and stay stuck!
I love the products, but I don't know if our budget will allow for them.
To get the most out of our range our first suggestion is to take advantage of the bulk savings. When you purchase a Portfolio Kit Value Pack you get one Kit for free!
When it comes to budgeting, we understand that every centre runs their operations differently, but an idea several Centres have employed is asking parents to contribute to the cost of Portfolios. This seems to work as the parents know at the end of the year they receive a lovely present with all their children's work organised and beautifully presented.
Our range of great quality products have been designed to save you time and therefore money. By utilising the range of Kiddaroo products your Centre can experience the benefits.
What are the benefits of the Kiddaroo Portfolio range?
The way the range has been designed means that you can choose what is relevant to your centre and make it work for you.
Every product has been designed to save time and increase task efficiency:
- No more sticking individual sheets of coloured paper on to every page- the blank Portfolios have been manufactured with brightly-coloured pages which are ready and waiting for you to make your mark
- No more re-writing the same headings over and over again. By using the Australian Curriculum Heading Stickers and the Areas of Learning and Play Stickers you can save your hand (and your pen) a lot of time and effort
- No more messing around cutting out bits of paper to write observations on- you can write straight on to stickers and then apply them to a page. Great news for those of you responsible for creating several at a time!
The quality and presentation of Portfolios speaks volumes about a Child Care Centre and being able to demonstrate that your Centre takes pride in all aspects of Child Care and Education gives a competitive edge
The vibrant colours of both the Presentation Portfolios and playful designs of the Sticker Sheets appeal to children and help to create excitement; highlighting photographs and artwork and encouraging recognition of their achievements.
Teachers who lack confidence in their own creativity may feel more comfortable with the process of working on Portfolios knowing that there are certain design elements ready to use.
Creating a sense of uniformity throughout any organisation demonstrates professionalism, and in an Early Childhood environment this is no different. Parents like to be reassured that regardless of which teacher is responsible for documenting their child's learning experiences, they are receiving the same quality.
How do I care for the products I have purchased from Kiddaroo?
To ensure that your hard work (and the children's) lasts for as long as possible, there are a few care suggestions:
- Store Presentation Portfolios and Sticker Sheets flat and away from direct sunlight, heat and dust (preferably in a cupboard or drawer)
- Always handle Presentation Portfolios and Sticker Sheets with care
- Ensure that Presentation Portfolios are closed and held securely when transported
- Never carry a Presentation Portfolio open and by its' cover as this could result in its' spine being weakened and may lead to tearing
- Avoid gluing artwork across double pages as this can lead to distortion of the Presentation Portfolio, difficulties with turning pages and tearing of artwork etc. If a work sample is too big to fit on a single page, instead try folding it in half and then gluing one side of the folded artwork on to the page.
- Take care when peeling stickers to avoid tearing.
