Just like the last Friday's posting, (I try to post every Mon, Wed and Fri as 3 times a week therapy) about an Underwater theme party in AU, read it here, these just happened to find a new home there too!
Hi! Okay, I will add shipping costs for you. I am sorry shipping with tracking is so much to Australia.
We can not be responsible for the item once we mail it to you without tracking or insurance, but we have shipped several packages to AU without issues or extra custom delays and costs, but not so lucky with some other countries.
Thank you for your order! Are you a teacher and using these in the classroom? I just had to ask as a curious recovering hoarder!
Kind regards,

Hi Kennedy,
Shipping costs are very high indeed! Thanks for sorting the costs. I appreciate it! Yes, I am a teacher and the school term will begin in a couple of weeks time. I really look forward to receiving the cards and using them in the classroom!
I admit I am a hoarder too... Just not quite ready for rehab !!

Thanks very much Kennedy.
I'm very grateful. I teach kindergarten in Sydney and I'm always on the lookout for wonderful teaching resources for the classroom! Of course you can blog to your hearts content and I do appreciate the anonymity.
All the best for the NewYear!
Many thanks!

I'm working on my motivation to write a posting on shipping as a techless Etsy newbie hoarder, but it's a lot of quite daunting information and somewhat boring yet necessary as an Etsy shop owner. If you are curious, a package like this with tracking cost about $25.00 to ship to AU and it was about $10.00 without tracking.
USPS shipping is mind boggling and basically goes by four criteria: zip code, type of package, dimensions and weight. All I can say is I can barely navigate my way around Etsy, so you can imagine me on the USPS site! It's a whole new apple and orange world over there!

Saying Goodbye: I still have plenty of teacher educational items to list, despite my mega purge when I retired, so I am still in good company with much of it. The test of time will be when I get to the bottom last item of it.
What I Learned:
1. It's good to hear, I'm not the only "admitted" hoarder around!
2. It's easy to be a hoarder as a teacher because every student's needs are different and getting to know them and figuring how to best learn with them is like a complicated puzzle at times. There are so many factors to consider besides motivation, interests, modality, English level, curriculum level, etc, even favorite color can be helpful in finding common grounds!
I mean, one would be surprised what one highly motivated tactile learner could learn from these "Ways To Go" cards. Even though they say they are for pre school, "Ways to Travel" used to be a third grade standard along with the Seven Seas and Continents.
I was an inner city third grade teacher but my students ranged from mostly Spanish only readers to a handful of English readers and when I first start teaching third grade, many didn't know the alphabet in either language, so cards like these came in handy.
3. I noticed I have many educational items still new in their package. I think it's because I bought multiples because for me it was not easy finding resources, so when I found them I just bought them! Also, I taught at year round schools and each teacher never had their own classroom. Two or three classrooms were always shared by 3-4 roving rotating teachers. Sometimes it was just easier to keep the same thing in each class, instead of digging around for it when I needed it!
I am so happy those days are long gone and hope teaching is less complicated now.
As a child, what was your favorite educational toy? I think mine were games and songs! It was so much easier and fun learning and practicing with a game or song. I think I still have the Billy Goat's Gruff Rap still memorized from years of teaching it in the 90s as a different version to a traditional folk story.
Here we go, here we go, kick it! "Way up in the mountains all covered in snow, was a place were people didn't like to go, it was dangerous and scary, but that wasn't the reason why everyone avoided it in any season.... Nobody liked the rickety bridge that crossed the river at the highest ridge..." The Rough Gruff Goat Brothers Rap by Jean Chardiet.
