I love these ideas! My 26mo is doing the journaling thing with a little encouragement these days – we do lots of stickers, drawings (sometimes I draw whatever she tells me to draw, or write down what she says while drawing), and colors for moods…

I love journaling! When I taught high school I would make my student journal every class. I talked to one the other day who is now going into her senior year. She told me she still has her journals and looks back at them. She said they make her happy and they give her a good laugh too!!

I homeschool now and used to have the kids journal but I let it go this year. I think we will be picking up the habit again. It is just too great an activity to let pass!

Thank you!

I’m so looking forward to introducing my daughter to journaling some day (she’s only 6mo right now). It is one of my absolute favorite past times. Looooove these tips.

Terrific post – my son recently asked for his own journal after an episode of “Sid the Science Kid”. He’s only 3.5yo and so there’s a limit to what he can do in his journal at the moment. But I will definitely keep your tips in mind to keep up his interest so that once he starts writing he can have a lot of fun with it. He will enjoy drawing and using stamps and stencils for the moment.

Great idea! I’m trying to write each day with my three year old. Starting the day as a ballerina and rainbow fairy seems like the perfect start to a summer day!

Love this idea!! But then I love most of your ideas! We recently did the alphabet crayons with the molds I bought from you last year……procrastinator I know…..they were a hit and a great birthday gift add on! My son keeps a journal at school but I never thought to continue it through the summer! I am giving you an award in a bit so stop on by!
