Supplies

Instructions for your school memory book

1. Print out the 3 pages onto regular printer paper. If you want you can print the cover on cardstock, but that’s optional.

2. Next, you want to have your child fill the book out. I found it easier to get my daughter to fill it out first before putting it together, but either way works.

3. Once you have the book printed, and it’s been filled out, you need to fold the pages. The last page of the pdf that has space for “Me at my desk” and “Playing outside with my friends” pictures you want to fold inward like the picture below.

4. Next, you want to put the book together. Take the page that is folded inward and place it inside the other page. Now put those pages inside the cover. Almost done!

5. Now to complete the book you need to bind it. So it can be as simple as adding a couple of staples, or if you want to get fancy you can hole punch two holes in the middle of the book, thread a colored string through the holes and finish with a bow.

    Cool idea for my kids this season! We have such a hard time breaking back into back-to-school mode because it’s just a busy time but this looks fun and like my kids would actually sit down and enjoy it.
