Does anyone have any programs to recommend for creating visually appealing worksheets?  Any tips or suggestions to share?

[mzlochower]

I use clipart from chinuch.org to enhance worksheets.  I download whatever clipart is approriate to the topic and add questions.  It gives students an attractive paper, as well as an incentive to finish the work and get to color.

I would recommend using Microsoft Publisher. Since it is a Microsoft program, it is setup like Microsoft Word and very user friendly. It\'s not exactly a graphic design program, but it was programmed to create appealing documents and therefore has many visual add-ins.

for anyone working on a mac, pages is a wonderfully easy version of word, cliparts and switching of eng/heb are much easier than in word.

I am not sure if you're familiar with Yoni - he is the one who draws pictures in Hamodia and all the Kids Speak pictures are from him
He sells his pictures (about 6000) on a cd to schools - once the school has bought one cd all teachers have permission to use it (not  like esky where each teacher needs their own) Pictures range from Parshas Hashavua to Yomim Tovim and general
He also has a search engine to make it easier to find what you want.
Most of his pictures are really good for the use of older pupils, i.e. esky is more for 3-7 years old but Yoni can be used easily for up to 12 years old.

I use publisher with cliparts from Esky & Chinuch.
