About

 

Hi there! I’m Kristen. Wife, mother, blogger, homeschooler, and chocolate addict.


I started making preschool activities for my daughter when she was about three years old and realized I LOVED designing them almost as much as she loved playing with them. After writing about our homeschool adventures on my blog (www.arrowsandapplesauce.com) a few friends and family encouraged me to sell my activities. Thus my shop was born!

Arrows & Applesauce is all about hands-on, bright, happy resources full of truth and fun! As the owner, illustrator, and designer, I pray that my activities help your children grow in knowledge as well as faith. These printable activities are designed to be used with ease by homeschoolers, teachers, and Sunday school leaders looking for a fun way to make a topic come alive for their students. Ranging in topics from the Earth's atmosphere, math facts, and life skills, to the Beatitudes, Arrows & Applesauce has something for everyone!

I’m always looking to create more activities to share so check back often!

Here are some FAQs:

Q. How will I receive my digital files? 

A. The link to download your files will be available once payment is processed and emailed to the email address you provide at checkout.

Q. My files are printing too large or the images are cut off. How do I fix this?

A. There should be an option on your printer or computer print screen labeled "fit to screen" (or something similar; it's different on some printers). That should take care of it.

Q. Can I share the files I purchase with my friends and family?

A. I'm thrilled that you want to share, but these files are for personal use only. You may not share or sell the PDF file links or physical copies of my activities. You can however print them and use them in your own home as many times as you need. You're also free to share my shop info with friends and family so they can enjoy my activities too. Contact me for extended printing licenses.

Q. Where do you get the Velcro dots, laminating supplies, glue, etc. that you use to assemble your activities?

A. You can find all of my favorite supplies listed in my Amazon storefront. (When you shop through this link, I earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you for your support!)

Q. Do you ever do custom activities?

A. Custom products are on a case by case basis, however I am a homeschool mom to three kiddos, so time is limited. This makes custom jobs a bit difficult in this season of life. There are exceptions though so feel free to contact me!

Q. Do you ship physical copies of your printable activities?

A. I only offer digital files at this time.

Q. Where can I print my activities?

A. You can print at home, or at any local print shop (example- Staples, Office Max, etc.). There are also several online printing services. I can recommend:

Watson Family Press - Use code ARROW10 for a discount (this is not a paid partnership).

Making Family Count: Homeschool Printing - Use code ARROWS15 for a discount (this is not a paid partnership).

Q. What brand, material, and sizes are the shirts offered in?

All shirts are Bella Canvas. Solid colors are 100% cotton and heather colors are a cotton/polyester blend. All sizes are unisex from XS - 5X (when available).

Q. I ordered the wrong size shirt. Can I exchange it?

Please see our returns and shipping policies here.

Q. My shirt or mug arrived damaged. What can I do?

Please email a photo with your order number to help@arrowsandapplesauce.com within ten days of your order arriving. We'd be happy to help!
