Goosie Cards Review

I would like to introduce the readers of The Dirty Shirt to a great product called Goosie Cards.They are the first and only custom flash cards for children. Goosie Cards are created online by the magic of your personal photos, creativity and language…by you for your children. Members log in to their account at Goosiecards.com, upload their own photos, add text to their cards and check out. All Goosie Cards are created and shipped to customers within 3 days. It’s that easy!

Making Goosie Cards is fun!  Every Goosie Card is unique with your favorite, real life photo and text.  They are an innovative learning tool, designed to have fun with your photos, while creatively teaching your child about their world.  They help your child learn visual object recognition in a playful way and help initiate communication.  You can make a special set of flash cards for a little one that stars each member of their family to teach them who’s who or maybe their own set of personal ABCs to teach them every letter in the alphabet from their point of view…like Mm is for Mommy. The wonderful thing about Goosie Cards is that they grow with your child.  There is really no age limit on the custom cards because they are created as your child develops their reading, language and communication skills. You can create 10, 20 or 26 custom cards and the prices range from $28 to $46.

Goosie Cards can also be purchased “as is”, meaning pre-made sets.  This is a perfect gift for a parent that loves good quality cards and photographs. They are wonderful teaching tools for children and each set is created with full color, beautiful, professional photos designed to stimulate young minds. The above cards are from the Favorite Foods selection. They have others too like the ABCs, 123s and the Animal Kingdom. One of my favorites is the Head To Toe collection.

I can’t say enough about these great cards. Some of the features to these cards are that every card is unique, you get high quality photos, the cards are laminated so you can wipe them clean and they are made from heavy card stock. But this is only a few of the reasons why these cards are great. My number one reason is my nephew. Let me explain.

My nephew has been diagnosed with Autism and the creator of these cards supports the Autism community. The Goosie Cards are amazing tools for Non-Verbal Communication. They offer flexibility to teach with visual aids, the personal photos that you can use reflect the actual world that the child is in, the photos help associate words and emotions and you have up to 5 lines of text to provide directions to simple activities. Having just finished the Autism walk in my community I know how important this type of product can be.

Goosie Cards would like to extend The Dirty Shirt readers free shipping from now until 12/31/08. Just enter the code “freeship08” during checkout. And I would like to extend a personal thank you to Jennifer Marchetti the Founder and CEO of Goosie Cards for introducing me to this product. I know you will love these cards, so weather it be for your children or for a gift I recommend you get a set of these. They would make the perfect holiday gift!
