BIRTHDAYS or ANNIVERSARY SCRAPBOOKS
Include photos of birthday celebrations each year in a family scrapbook album so you can see the changes in your child/ren's appearance, friends, cakes and gifts they received from year to year. These photos can also be incorporated into each child's individual scrapbook.
BABY SCRAPBOOKS
Keep everything you get concerning your new child starting from when you are in the hospital. Baby food labels and a picture of your child trying the new food also make great souvenirs of their early days. Include photos of a baby in outfits they were given.
FAMILY HISTORY SCRAPBOOKS
Record your family history for generations to come. Include old black and white photos, try to find out all the family member names, great to pass on to your children and educate them on the family history.
TRAVEL and FAMILY TRIP SCRAPBOOKS
Include memorabilia - These are things you can think of when you are on a trip, taking photos with making your scrapbook in mind and what you really want to remember. Keep everything (including tickets and information leallets) from shows you may have seen or little side trips you went on so you can remember every little detail of your travels. You can even press leaves, flowers, etc. you collected during a trip and use them to embellish your pages. It all depends on how much detail you want to go into on your pages
PET SCRAPBOOKS
Keep a photo record of family pets you have had, especially their growth if you had them from when they were young. Pictures of your children with pets they treasured will make great memories when they are older.
