Circle Journals
This Fall we decided to start a little project with Grammy and Grampy. We love writing letters to them and of course receiving them. However the ones we get seem to be all over the place- under beds, in books etc. So in hopes of being able to look back on a period of time we created our Circle Journals. The boys and the Grandparents anticipate their arrival each week. We spend at least an hour on ours as they carefully plan out what to write and how to decorate it. It is a mixture of art and writing. Something that has been so fun to do. Hopefully something they will treasure for years to come.

This is wonderful! I love it. What a gift it will be when it is full and the boys have a lasting memory of their correspondence.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fantastic idea! My grandparents are in FL for the winter, and something like this could be so great for the girls to share with them while they are away :)
ReplyDeleteWe love this idea and look forward to the arrival of our Circle Journals. We think about what we are going to do and say and when the big day arrives we are ready to write and create. The next day we send them off. This is great fun. Love, XXXOOO
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I love, love, love this idea! We may have to make our own Circle Journal here!
