Polaroid PoGo photos are useful for organizating belongs and identifying people.
The Polaroid PoGo is the latest incarnation of instant cameras that have been around for decades. The PoGo takes digital photos that you can print immediately from the body of the camera. The 2-inch by 3-inch prints are on sticky-backed paper that you can peel off and use as stickers. With some creativity, you can come up with ideas to use the PoGo for more than just photos in your scrapbook.
Back-to-School Night
There's no need for the more traditional name tags on back-to-school night. Teachers can use the Polaroid PoGo to identify which student belongs to each parent in the room. The teacher will need to snap photos of the students during class, print them and have the kids write their parents' names on the photos. When parents arrive on back-to-school night, ask them to find their child's photo and wear it. The photo tags will help teachers identify parents and will also help parents get to know each other better.
Identify Stuff
Being organized at home is a helpful skill. Unfortunately, organizing your stuff in plastic boxes can be difficult, even if you write the box contents on a sticker pasted on the outside. The PoGo can help. Use it to snap a photo of the contents inside the box, then print the photo and attach it to the outside of the box. That way you'll know what's inside the box without having to think about some category you wrote on a label, and you'll be able to find your belongings faster. If you want, you can also write a content category on the photo to make your storage even more efficient.
Preschoolers
For children who are not yet able to read, the Polaroid PoGo becomes a helpful tool. Use the photo stickers to help children identify what's inside plastic boxes for toys and crafts, what's inside food boxes, and what's behind doors. You can also use the photo stickers to instruct children on do certain jobs. For hand washing, for example, print out photos of putting soap on hands, rinsing under water and drying hands with a paper towel. Post the photos near a sink.
Thank Yous
The Polaroid PoGo is a handy tool when it comes to thank you notes, especially at children's birthday parties. Each time your child opens a gift, snap a photo of her with the present. When it's time to write thank yous, print out the photos and paste them onto the notes. You'll have a record of what each person gave your child, which will make note writing easier. You'll also have a way to show the gift giver how much your child loved the present.
