Hi, Just a heads up! 28th August has a spelling mistake in 'Nationality' of the celebrity. FYI. Thanks for the great work that you do xo
Thank you Kylie, fixed!
It's wonderful but I can't keep printing pictures; TOO MUCH INK! How do I transfer an activity to any available television?
I've asked this before but get no response.
THANK YOU!
Cynthia, we use an i-pad with attachment from Best Buy. attaches i-Pad to the big screen TV through HDMI. This also works with your cell phone, but rather with an attachment for the TV HDMI. Our TVs are 14 years old, and this works.
Hi Cynthia,
You don’t need to print anything! Open the activity on your computer and click Play to start the fullscreen slideshow.
To show it on a TV, your computer needs to be connected to the TV using an HDMI cable or by casting/screen mirroring. If you’re not familiar with this technology, it may be worth asking someone to help you get connected the first time. Once it’s set up, it’s a great way to use many of the activities without printing.
We have a step-by-step guide in our Help Center here:

I hope this helps!
