Okay... I'm really excited about his download! It started out as a project I was going to work on for a friend... A friend on Facebook asked if I could design something to record all those cute things that her kids say. She thought maybe a little book to stash in her purse might be nice...you know to have it handy when those random and priceless words pop out of nowhere! As I was thinking about what I could design, it occurred to me that this would make a great printable download for all my bloggy friends (that's you guys)! So thanks for the awesome idea, Lesli :)
Here's what we've got:
Each little section features a place for the date, the child's name, and ample space for the quote. There is also a little section at the bottom where you can select a descriptive word or phrase to further help describe the incident :)
Now the fun thing is that this can be used a number of different ways...
1. Mini Book: print 1 or 2 sheets front and back, cut along all the thin solid green lines, fold on green dotted lines and staple with cover.
2. Medium Book: print 2-4 sheets front and back, cut sheets in half on middle thin solid green line, fold on green dotted lines and staple with cover.
3. Print whole sheets and keep in sheet protectors in a binder
4. Cut out into individual rectangles and display/use individually... on the fridge, on the bathroom mirror, send to Grandma, etc...
It's a 2 page download... the second page is the cover, for if you make a book. Leave it the original size for the medium book or cut in half (there are cut marks to help you) to use for the mini book!

***I have one request for you, now! Pretty please, if you could... would you leave a comment letting me know that you downloaded the super cool printable!! You don't have too... but I would LOVE to know if it's getting downloaded at all and if future downloads are worth my trouble :) Also, I'd definitely like to hear suggestions/ideas for future downloads!

I don't have children but I thought this was so cute that I made one for my friend who has a 2 year old girl! She'll love it, I'm sure, as Bella is quite a chatterbox!
ReplyDeleteAlso, my stapler wasn't big enough (too bad, I had some darling colored staples) So I stiched the edge with turquise thread. I like how it turned out! I will get a post up about it soon, linked back to you! Thank you for sharing your creations, it's very sweet of you!

ReplyDeleteThis was wonderful!! An idea would be something like a mini journal. I would love to write down the cute little things my kidos do that they could look back on.
