How a printer could be your best tool for entertaining your kids

Entertaining the kids? The Epson EcoTank lets you print as much as you like without worrying about changing an ink cartridge.

If someone had told me before I became a parent that the Epson EcoTank printer would be an amazing tool for my family, I might not have believed them! Here are just some of the things you can do…

Print those pics

Chances are your family photos are sitting on your computer or phone. Print out those captured moments – you can create collages of your children as they grow. Or frame them and pop them up around the house. The Epson EcoTank printer includes up to two years of ink – so that’s a lot of great family photos!

Entertainment time

Put together your own activity packs for your kids by downloading and printing colouring-in pages, dot-to-dot challenges, puzzles the kids can cut out and put back together – the list is truly endless. When you become a parent, you have to think smarter when it comes to entertaining kids. Having the EcoTank Printer at home makes it so much easier than packing up the kids and taking them to the shops to buy activity books.

Get flashy

Flash cards can really help kids learn and have fun at the same time. Whether you’re wanting to teach your kids what letters and words look like, or perhaps trying to explain emotions, you can have any type of flash card ready in a minute thanks to the EcoTank Printer. If your child is old enough, it can also become an activity to cut them out together as well.

Handy hints

For a while, my daughter was struggling with certain letters, so we printed them out and stuck them on the tops of milk caps – you can use this idea to teach your kids in so many different ways. And just print as many as you need, the EcoTank printer has ink tanks, which means you simply refill using the low-cost ink bottle – easy.

And so much more

Invitations, greeting cards, birthday cards, meal planners, daily routine guides, puzzles, prints, motivational daily quotes, bookmarks and honestly so much more! Remember the words “free printables” when you’re doing your next Google search. Thankfully for us parents, the EcoTank Printer allows you to print thousands and thousands of pages without having to bother with changing a cartridge – so there’s no excuse not to get printing!
