problem: i got 'caught' throwing away colins school papers a couple months ago & ever since then he carefully places all of his papers in a folder at the end of each day which leads to an overflowing mess in the kitchen drawer.
solution: the binder with page protectors +

a couple of pictures +

a personalized name tag =

one happy colin enjoying his very 'own' book !

he loves flipping through the binder.
he loves reading his daily journal pages.
he loves watching himself evolve/change/progress.
he loves adding to his new book.
he loves project #1.
(and so do i !)
