Are the stationery items in the backpack in order, notebooks separate, art supplies separate, and craft materials not scattered throughout all compartments? This is possible if you teach your child to use folders. Explain and show them how convenient it is when everything is in its place. Develop systematicity and neatness in the child.
Kite stationery offers a wide selection of bright school supplies. Children will surely love beautiful folders with images, and they will gladly sort their school supplies. This guide will help you get acquainted with the functionality of folders. Understand how they differ from each other and why a separate model is needed for each lesson.
How to choose a folder for notebooks
Neat notebooks, both inside and out, reflect the student's character. It is important to teach a child to handle school supplies carefully from the first grade. Before buying a folder for notebooks, parents need to focus on the following selection criteria.
- Size. It should be slightly larger than the format of notebooks and diaries for schoolchildren (B5). This makes it easy to take out and put in stationery. The folder should hold at least 10 notebooks of 12 pages each.
- Material. The cover can be soft plastic or hard cardboard. For first-graders, the latter option is more suitable for more careful storage of supplies.
- Fasteners. The contents of Kite notebook folders are secured by a colored elastic band. It is much more practical to use. A button is difficult for a child to fasten, and Velcro is unusable after a month.
- Design. Bright modern prints look especially appealing and "invite" you to use the folder, rather than leaving it in the remotest corner of the desk drawer.
- Additional features. On the inside of the hard-cover Kite folder, there is a multiplication table, units of measurement, and a lesson schedule. Agree, this is convenient and always at hand.
How to choose a folder for craft lessons for a first-grader
Craft lessons are among children's favorites. They can take a break from boring subjects and show their creative streak. One thing worries parents: they need to carry a large number of materials: paper, cardboard, scissors, glue, plasticine, and many other stationery items. A craft folder for a first-grader will help to organize the backpack and keep everything in one place.
Criteria for choosing a craft folder from the Kite brand.
- Size. A4 format for colored paper and cardboard. Spine width of at least 20 mm.
- Convenient space organization. Craft folders should have elastic holders and pictorial prompts for placing essential tools. It's great when each item is secured and doesn't rattle inside.
- Design. Kite folders are not only convenient and functional but also beautiful. Both girls and boys will be delighted with prints featuring their favorite cartoon characters. For elementary school students, you can choose options with images of characters from famous cartoons, and for older children, with a beautiful drawing.
By purchasing folders for notebooks and crafts, you ensure maximum preservation and careful use of your child's school supplies. Believe me, this is not an extravagance, but a truly important and necessary accessory for learning. And the best part is that at Kite, you can collect an entire collection of stationery in one style: Transformers, Hot Wheels, Jolliers, My Little Pony, Hello Kitty.
