Kid's Summer Smash Books

I have been going kind of "SMASH" book crazy lately...

Not sure what a Smash book is?  Check it out here...



I wanted the kids to have their own version to use over the summer to document the fun things we do over the next few months (from their perspective).

I got out some of my scrapbook paper (no matter how many projects we do with my scrapbook paper, there never seems to be a dent in my stash!!), got out some stickers, glue, scissors and my Bind-It-All.  I had them pick out the papers they wanted to use on the front, back and insides.  Just helped them by trimming them all the same size.  They decorated however they wanted and put some stickers in and I bound them and they are done!

This summer, I'll have them put whatever they want in them from our adventures.  Like, ticket stubs, post cards, zoo passes, pics, doodles, shells from the beach, whatever.  It is for them to do what they want with.

Here are a few pics, keep in mind, they picked everything out for themselves...



And here's a sneak peak at the one's my neighbors kids made with us!
