Family Scrapbooking
Season 2022
Episode 32
A family scrapbook is a great way to jump-start your child’s writing. Use a photo album to keep souvenirs – photos, ticket stubs, etc. – of things you do together. Have your kids write a description of the event and add a date. Ask them what words they would use to describe the event. Discussions around these memories can expand vocabulary while creating something tangible to preserve memories.
