I run a small daycare- 2 DC kids + 2 of my own. For a gift from kids to parents I was thinking of having them make a mini scrapbook with photos that I've taken throughout the year. Thought maybe the kids could paint or decorate pages and then we could put the pictures on the pages. I would obviously be doing most of the work but thats fine. Is this something parents will appreciate? Has anyone done something similar?

If my kids had been in dc I would have LOVED something like that!!

I've never done that but that would be a gift that I would love from my kids.

I do this at the end of summer. My parents love it. I cut cardstock in 1/2, bind it, then let the kids decorate and put the pics on with double stick tape.

I did this one time for Father's Day and the fathers all loved them! I added a couple pages, one where the kids got to draw a picture and another where they helped fill out an "interview" (like favorite color, etc).

How do you bind it? I have been trying to figure out how to put it all together...8 do not want to do a full size scrapbook but idk if I will be able to find one in a smaller size...

Oooh the interview idea is cute! I like that for my 3 yo. I am thinking maybe hand prints and footprints and then let them just paint the photo pages however before putting the pics on
