DO you display your childrens treasures? The little ones love to color and make you a cute picture, the older ones do crafts, and the teenagers get you a little trinket.
MY grandchildren do this for us and they love to see them displayed, we have a special bulliten board where we put our babies pictures they drew or colored and I have a special spot for the trinkets so everyone can see them.
It really excites the grandkids to come in and see there work displayed.
Do you have a special place for your familys treasures maby the frig. or a special spot you keep them?

Some pictures I display on my refrigerator or on my bulliton board. I dont really have alot of trinkets from my kids but I have a dresser in my room that is filled with teddy bear figurines or snoopy items. My husband will buy them for me and say its from the kids lol. But I have a special box that the kids hepled me make that is for all their pics and drawings and school stuff. We pull it out and look at it. I just dont have enough space for all their stuff. My three and four and two year old are into drawing so I get at least 10 pics drawn a day times that by three kids so we only save the very special ones.

My son is still very young and doesn't really draw.
Although a few months back we gave him a pencil and he copied what his mum was doing. He mainly scribbled but my mum (his grandmother) now proudly hangs it on her fridge and always show it to people who come around.
It's quite cute.

My daughters keep them for their own collection they put it in a album, and last time my eldest daughter told me to keep it my computer I scan it and saved it to my file. She told me that if the original one is lost I have the copy of it.

Hi. I know all our family treasures are locked away in my grand parents wardrobes and sheds... I have a big board in my room full of family pictures, most of all our children...

My son is only 10 months old, but when he gets old enough to start coloring or drawing then of course I would display his creativity everywhere! He is my treasure and one of the most important people in my life. He needs to know that I am proud of him no matter what he does. I'll find special spots depending on what it is he has done.
