This week my girls are at Camp Nana & Papa. And before they left they had been making a list of all the things they wanted to do and places they wanted to go. Thinking it would be fun if they had a little scrapbook to take with them (and consciously trying to spend more time with them) I gathered some supplies and we got to work.
Inside the first page was a Wish List of all the things they wanted to do. As they do them, they can check it off their list. I made sure to give my mom instructions to take lots of pictures so that the girls would have something to add to their scrapbook.
To do this project you will need about 5 lunch bags per book, ribbon for the binding, hole punch, scrapbook paper, stickers, glue sticks, Washi Tape (I finally did a project using Washi Tape and loved it!), embellishments and whatever else you want to use to dress up the pages.
If you decide to do this project I imagine your list may look different than ours so I created a free printable that you and your kids can customize by hand-writing things in.

THIS is perfect for when Shawn’s parents come in a couple weeks. I’m going to put one together for Madelyn. We have a Polaroid printer and this is the perfect craft for it. I’m so glad you posted this one.
I love the “Camp” Nana and Papa. So cute as are the books that you made for the kids. I will have to remember this for my Grandbabies š
Hugs for the idea!
