Scrapbooking with your kids

Published by danahinders at 8:47 am under Ideas and inspiration Edit This

If you’re a mom, finding time to scrapbook is probably a constant struggle. However scrapbooking can be a great educational activity for children. You can have your child create his/her own scrapbook using your leftover supplies and duplicate photos or simple give tasks that help you complete your own layouts. Here are some of the ways my toddler has “helped” mommy with her scrapbook projects:

  • Sorting embellishments by color
  • Finding a particular alphabet sticker to make a title
  • Looking for a particular shape of brad
  • Putting photos in piles based on who is in them, such as parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles

Although scrapbooking with your kids can be a fun way to enjoy spending time together, don’t forget that children can be messy and careless. Save techniques that involve paint or sharp objects for a time when your children are safely tucked in their beds.
