This a scrapbook /book that I crafted over the weekend for Montessori Funtime, the Montessori where I volunteer =)
I thought I'd make this to show the kids what we are coming up with the drawings and pages we started doing last week when I came for their arts and craft class.
Truthfully I thought that this will be easy but boy it took me some good hours brainstorming on how I want it to look like and how to put it all together. I guess when you put your passion on something or well do something you're really passionate about you end up putting your heart and soul to it. In the end, you come up with a picture of yourself in many forms =)
I figured this is something that the kids can work on for and by themselves to preserve some precious memories as well as their handwork as the years go by.
A child's art is really one of a kind and we know that they will never be kids forever and for that reason I want to help them preserve some of those creative juices, innocence, purity, humility, honesty, meekness and happiness in those art works. By using those little hands they are able to create and transcend their youth in their own little book.
I guess this is a project that kids and grown ups can enjoy doing together. If there's a storybook you want to pass on for generations to come, there is certainly nothing better than your own book of life where the very essence of your being is preserved and magnified.
Speaking of which, It's about time for me to start one for me and my husband! That would make a great present sometime in the future.
How time flies....
I just realized that in few more days it will be our half year together as married couple! =)
Definitely starting our scrapbook!
Have you started yours???
