Common questions

What age are these courage affirmation cards for?
The wording is written for roughly ages 4 to 10. Younger kids read them with a grown-up; older kids read them on their own.
Do I need special paper?
No. Regular paper works; card stock just makes the cards last longer if you plan to shuffle them daily.
Can I use these in a classroom?
Yes — print as many copies as you need for your own classroom or family. Please don't resell or redistribute the file itself.
