Wondering where you guys buy your paper. Handwriting paper, construction paper, that sort of thing. Any suggestions?

where ever I can find it cheap.

I often find the lined learning handwriting paper at my thrift shop for .10 a tablet

Notebooks I stocked up on at the back to school sales - .01 each. I got some construction paper then too on sale cheap.

I stock up when target has it on clearance at the end of back to school season each year.

Dickblick.com has good prices as well.

I watch the Sunday ads for Staples and places like that- often they will have specials on paper.

Paper is a nice thing to ask relatives for, too, for gifts... just explain how it gives your dc hours and hours of fun. Sometimes (can't believe I am admitting this) if my dc receive an inappropriate gift (dvds come to mind) I will return those and use the money to buy art/craft paper, which is always G-rated and gives them many more hours of creative fun than a movie.

I stock up at the Target clearance sale as well.

I have also asked for art supplies from grandparents.

And Melinda, I've done the same thing. We received a few DVDs at Christmas that were PG13- so not something I'm going to let my 2yo and 4yo watch! We exchanged for a few DVDs appropriate for them (I'd much rather we watch DVDs than regular television - when they're done they're done! There isn't the tease of whatever show is coming up next.)

How I wish some of you 4 ladies lived nearby! My dh is a printer and do we have paper!!! Check out a local full service printing co (not a quick copy shop) and ask if they have any paper that they were going to dump/recycle to give to you. I have huge rolls of paper, the butcher block type, sometimes in color, I am just now finishing up my last box of 8 1/2 x 11 paper (we were given 8 huge boxes) that the company was going to toss because a customer changed their mind about a job.

It is amazing what they toss.
