First Day of Summer
We have a tradition of spending the first official day of summer making "School Scrapbooks." During the year, I collect all of the kiddles' papers, certificates, artwork, report cards, etc. in a folder. I hand them a binder, a few clear page protectors, and a hole punch, and let them go to town putting their memories into a book. Once it's finished, we throw any leftovers away (they have to choose their favorites), paste one of their school pictures onto the first page, and voila! We have a great contained memory of the year. This also cleans out my drawers in preparation for a new school year. Here are a few photos of the fun:

Nen, LOVE the idea!! That is so fun! We're going to try it next year. As it stands now, I try to keep what I want them to keep, and throw away everything else when no one is looking. :)
