If you do printables (letter, shape, color, number coloring, tracing etc) do you send the sheet home with the child? Do you hang it up for a bit and then just recycle it? What do you do??

I was just thinking about this and planned on printing out a bunch of different sheets to use in the upcoming weeks. Then I thought of the cost to me to print - paper, ink - and wondered how well it would work to print a few of the same sheet, laminate them and then let the kids use dry erase markers on them. That way we should be able to use them over and over again, right?? Any experience with this???
