My Life as a Kid, So Far is a guided keepsake journal for kids.
I created this prompted journal because I know it will be fun for kids to fill out and because I would have loved to have a book like this when I was young.
How sweet it would be to look at it now and see what I thought and how I saw the world when I was still green as grass. It's a lovely idea to me.
Now, I have the chance to give this gift to others. Wouldn't it be fun to be able to look back at what you thought when you were 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12?
I've included questions about family, play, school, favorite things, hobbies, goals, dreams, drawing prompts, and more.
This journal sparks the imagination, inspires creativity, and reminds one of special moments and happy memories.
You can find out more about this cool book HERE. I think it makes an awesome holiday, birthday, or anytime gift. Let me know what YOU think. ML, Rachel
I wasn’t born in this universe.
I was blown off a star on a blustery day and buffered my landing by stuffing clouds into my clothes before plopping into a vat of freshly puffed marshmallows ten miles east of Kathmandu.
Those marshmallows were undeniably springy, and I bounced back up 1,700 miles before sliding down a rainbow into Lake Michigan.
