Do you make photo books of your family memories? I know it can be an overwhelming process… one we put off time after time. Today, in partnership with Mixbook, I am sharing five reasons to make that photo book today.

  1. Mixbook makes it SO easy. You literally pick a template that you like, upload the photos you love off straight off your phone, and let Mixbook do the work for you. You can customize with stickers and backgrounds (they are super design- savvy) or not. Either way? Your book is going to look professional and FUN.

  2. Looking at pictures of themselves in action helps children to process their lives. Try leaving out photo books for you child at quiet time or when you want to calm things down and engage them. These books catch the attention of even the most distractible little ones.

  3. Photos books support language and reading development. When my children were small, I would add simple phrases and names to the images in our photo books. This helped them make connections between pictures and text.

  4. Young children are ego-centric. They are supposed to be! Help them learn more about their world by looking at pictures in the book and talking about the experiences. Remind them of when they were a baby. Show them how much they grew over the year. Try using phrases like, “Oh look at the very first time you went on the swings. You were just a little baby and I had to do everything for you. Now you run to the swings and climb up all by yourself! All you need is a little push to get going.”

  5. I know how hard you work to create great family memories. You deserve to have them preserved in a beautiful book that your family will cherish. You’ll never regret the few minutes it took to put together. Do it now. Your future self will thank you.

When I sat down to make this photo book, I opened the Mixbook website and actually squealed out loud. The design themes were so awesome!! I mean, how “Workspace” is the theme in this book we chose? I felt like it was custom designed for my family. RUN to the Mixbook website and check out the design layouts and then get to work! You can literally make and order a book in less than thirty minutes.
