❓Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need to be an artist to use this?
Nope! These resources are beginner-friendly and designed for all ages and abilities. You don’t need any art experience to enjoy them — just curiosity and a willingness to play.

Q: What’s the best way to print the Pattern Play Cards?
Print in black and white on regular paper or light card. For durability, we recommend laminating them and using a hole punch and ring to keep them together. A4 or Letter size both work great.

Q: Can I use this with kids?
Yes! These tools are designed to be inclusive and accessible — perfect for classrooms, playgroups, family art nights, youth workshops, retirement communities and more.

Q: How many copies can I print? *
You’re welcome to print unlimited copies for personal use or within a single organisation (like your school, class, or community group). If you’re part of a team of facilitators or educators, I kindly ask that each person or site purchase their own copy if possible. There’s no license enforcement — I trust and appreciate your support of small, independent creators like me!

Q: Is this a physical product?
No, this is a digital download. Once you purchase, you’ll receive links to your PDF files so you can print and start using them right away.
