Pocketmod for printable, portable entertainment

Karina shared an excellent find:

Pocketmod is a portable organizer you can customize for everyday use, print it on a single page and fold it so that it becomes a tiny booklet you can put in your pocket or purse. There are several pages to choose from, and I made one for my 4 yo with just dots and tic-tac-toe pages, so if I need to entertain him away from home, like waiting in line,  we have this little game to play with. No worrying about losing an expensive toy, just trash or recycle when done.

Your comments

This is WAY cool! I used to do something like this in Word called my "Second Brain"... I'm printing out a test page right now!

I fold up a blank little book for my kindergartener and use it to keep track of "tickets" for computer time - that is one of the ways we make sure that there's no fighting about how much time he gets online and when it happens.
