Welcome to Wonderschool! I try to make resources that will inspire wonder and help children to explore, learn and investigate. This is the alphabet that started the whole shop off! It took me an age but here it is. The whole alphabet in uppercase letters.I love a good resource and I come back to this one all the time! It's great to have it displayed or in the outdoor area for the children to create their own! Due to the Etsy file size restrictions you will get two files to download. One file contains A-M and the other N-Z. They are in a PDF format and you get images just smaller than A4 size, one card per page. I haven't added a border to these ones as I find people generally prefer to use them borderless. If you'd really like some with a border do get in touch and i'll try my best to make some asap! You can print them the A4 size or select 'multiple per page' in the printing option menu to create smaller cards (easier for tiny hands) You can download your digital products as soon as you complete your purchase! No waiting for the delivery van! Please take note that this is a digital image and not a product that will be posted out to you. If there is a resource you'd like to see that isn't currently in my shop please get in touch and i'll try by best to make it! I now have a lowercase version too! https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1059788270/lowercase-nature-alphabet-cards?ref=shop_home_active_1 Due to the nature of digital products i'm afraid I cannot accept refunds.
