Did you see last week's post about organizing your child's artwork? It's a great solution, but what about the 3D projects or other creations we can't slip into a sheet protector?
My daughters LOVE the magna doodle. Do yours? It is so fun to be able to draw and erase and draw and erase over and over again. But there's one major problem with that. You can't keep their creations forever!
I've solved that problem by taking an upclose picture whenever they draw something spectacular as well as one that shows them holding the magna doodle (so I can remember who drew it). Now, I can just print off their pictures, either as 4x6 or 8x10 and slide them into their art binders.
The same goes for those incredible towers they build or the amazing chalk drawings on the driveway. Just snap a photo, print it out and slide it in.
Problem solved!

Fairy Blossoms
Trying out our new camera. Loved seeing my daughter on the trampoline with the new spring blossoms. I haven't figured out the camera, nor my daughter, but I'm trying to enjoy both of them anyway.
I also like the unspoken suggestion here of using other paper for the Lite Brite and pre-decorating it. Sounds so “duh” now, but I never thought of it before!
