Growing up is interesting
While you’re documenting your child’s physical growth from year to year, why not track their personal progress as well? Ask them their favorite subject, who their best friend is, or what they want to be when they grow up—and write the answers alongside their photo. You can physically write it out or add it later with an app. Growing up is interesting

Display the contents of your child’s book bag and photograph the items. It’ll be a great way to track their journey from crayons to calculators and everything in between. What’s in my backpack
First day/last day
Take a photo of your child in the same outfit on the first and last day of school and use a photo app to place them side by side. It’s a fun way to see how much they’ve grown during the school year—especially if they’ve literally outgrown their clothes. First day/last day
