Beyond the First Year
Toddlers and preschoolers make great subjects for scrapbooks. Always on the go, they walk, talk, play, climb, swing, cuddle and create. Naturally curious, they constantly explore the world around them and learn how to do new things. They also get into plenty of mischief, which you’ll want to document for the future right along with the brags.

Journaling
- Describe your child’s personality. Is he strong-willed, laid back, talkative?
Make a list of her favorite and least favorite things: foods, toys, shows, songs, books, and people. You’ll find this list will quickly change, so revisit the topic every six months or so.
- Interview your child about one of his interests and record his answers in your scrapbook.
- Record the words of the songs you like to sing together and the prayers you say.
- Write down the funny things your child says.
- Detail a typical day in the life of your child – her routine, the places you go, everyday happenings like nap time and snacks. Be sure to take pictures.
- Write a letter telling your child how much she means to you.
- Journal your thoughts and feelings on your child’s first day of preschool.
- Write about the most special times you and your child spend together.
