I change nappies on the work surface in the utility room, there is a wall unit above where they lay which is very boring plain and white. I'm looking for some pictures for the little ones to look at something colourful and interesting and A4 size. I've been searching the internet for ages but cant find anything. so any ideas would be greatful.

have you tried looking in clipart in word on your puter?

if you insert a picture you get option from file or clipart - normally there is a huge library of pictures you can use to print from.

Also if you go to google images you can search for images - put in your search box a subject ie sun, then at the top click on the link 'images' next to the word 'web' you can also select the size you want as well so the bigger the larger you can print.

Perhaps if you have a theme - you can print images from your theme from these sources.

Or you could do a word and a picture - and change it each day - so start with A is for Apple - and every 26 days you go back to the start?

If you are after permanent, although they say you can tkae them off.

I have some cute planes and some bear stickers. They are like stickaround only a bit smaller.

I am big mirror fan at moment. Just got one of those huge mirror boards with 9 little circle mirrors in a frame (from the toy library). The babies love seeing 9 of themselves and spend ages looking at themselves. Only problem is I want one and don't want to give it back!
