I found this great idea online to store all the paperwork that kids do at school. Brayden has been coming home with tons of things and I know he'll have lots more projects and artwork he'll want to save in the future. For now, I am just saving everything but I'll have him go through his folder at the end of the year and decide what he really wants to keep. And for really big projects that are too large to fit we can just take a picture of them and then stick the picture in the folder (if I can really be that organized!) You can go to THIS blog and see where I got the idea and she has all the file folder tabs and papers you can print out free. So nice and easy!
Pre-K thru 12th grade
I'm going to put Brayden's school picture each year on the front of this once we get them back :) He had them taken last week, but he told me he had gym right before pictures so it'll be interesting to see how they turned out! I'm sure he'll be nice and sweaty!
And I went ahead and just made a set for Tyler since he'll be in school eventually. I put a folder in there to keep all the toddler artwork my kids have done too since they seem to always be drawing things. Ty is currently in the circles drawing stage where he just draws tons of circles on his page. Not sure if all kids do this but I totally remember Brayden doing it too around the same age.
I do need to take back the plastic hanging folder bins because one is already cracked and I've only had them a few weeks! We definitely need something more sturdy with all of our moves. Not to mention it needs to last them through 12th grade and beyond. Maybe I'll have to get ones like she has on her post if I can find them somewhere.
