Creative and eye-catching posters not only convey important information but also add variety to a meeting. Visuals can also be used during a Series Meeting to promote membership. At any time during a meeting, a mother may be busy nursing a baby or tending to younger children and her attention may be distracted from the speaker. Even if she does not hear the information as it is presented, a poster will allow her to focus on it at a later time. LLL meetings are full of sounds.
Leaders ask questions, mothers share their experiences, babies cry and children make playful noises.
A visual aid allows the mother to see the information even if it's hard to focus on what is being said. Visuals and posters can be taped to a wall, displayed while the Leader or Group Treasurer discusses membership or distributed as a handout. Write a word such as membership or breastfeeding vertically. Use each letter to begin a word that describes a benefit of LLL membership. Make a chart to show how membership fees are allocated.
