but i cant seem to down load them so that i can type on them or print them off in one go, it wants to print one at a time which is a bit of a paper waste.

Why not make your own ?

Take pics of whatever are in your draws and use them

I sorted my toy drawers into categories - cars, duplo, dolls etc and took a photo of the contents of each, blew it up to A4 size, printed and laminated them, and stuck them on the boxes. I think it works really well as the children understand what's inside even if they can't yet read, and the labels show exactly what should go in each box for when it comes to tidy up time.

I printed off labels on the computer, and put pictures next to it and then laminated them. It's nice for the little ones that can't read as they can identify whats in the draw from the picture.

I labelled all my drawers when I first registered - and before I was IT literate!!

I got an ELC catalogue and cut that up and put the pictures on the front of the drawers along with a white sticker with the written description on.
- Its a lot quicker than taking all of the pictures.

I covered the pictures with sticky back plastic and it worked really well -most of them are still on 8 years later!!

HTH,

just google for the images you want there's oodles of things out there.

I used the ones from here that someones DD kindly made for them, can't remember where they are on here and just tried to search but can't find them, maybe someone else will know where they are!

Oh and then made up ones that I needed extra or changed the pics slightly.
