Life is pretty good here. The only sad thing is I think I have the flu... so I've had to stay home from work the past couple days. So good thoughts that it would go away before I have to travel back to Kunming for Thanksgiving would be super appreciated.
There is one thing I am stumped on, and slightly frustrated with... well more than slightly.
I'm really excited because my posters are all finally up in the PT center - and I have to say, they look really awesome. Unfortunately, there is a BUT in the situation. The Velcro will not stay on!!! I've been trying to figure out how to make the Velcro stay on the posters and the backs of the cards I want the kids to use. I've tried two different kinds of double-sided tape, super glue, and pure pressure out of frustration, but to no avail.
My next idea was to try to use push-pins or some kinds of hooks, but I don't want to poke holes through my posters and I would need small enough hooks that there would be enough room for all the cards to fit. So, really, I would prefer to use the Velcro... but I need some kind of super hero adhesive to make it stick.
If anybody - anybody at all - has a clue as to what I could use to make the Velcro stick on the laminated posters and laminated cards, please leave a comment and let me know. I want your all's help, so please don't leave out your ideas if you have any at all!
Here's pictures of the posters:

| this is how the cards are supposed to stay... currently they're all on the ground because the tape wore down |
So anyway, there's an update on that. Seriously, please please please comment on any ideas you may have - whether I know you or not!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Hey Savi! You could try making some sort of clear pocket for the cards to be put in. Just use clear packaging tape, stick it to itself and then tape it to your posters. Then the cards can be placed in the pockets. Does that make any sense? It does in my head... ha.

Cute posters! I use Elmer's Poster Tack which works well. I'm not sure if that's available where you are. I'll send you an email with the picture. There are glue dots also..
