From the time honored advice of your grandmother, to the funny sentences of the newest grandchild, capture each family member's
notable phrases in a Words of Wisdom book you can read for years to come.
Getting Started
- First, create a list of sayings that each member of your family is know for. Since these phrases can be taken from any stage
of a family member's life, it may be helpful to get input from many different family members in order to collect a wide variety
of words of wisdom. Ask older relatives if they remember any special advice their grandparents handed down to them.
- Next, compile these phrases into a word document organized by each family member. This will allow you to spell check your
text before you add it to your Picaboo book.
- Also, gather photos of each member of your family that you will feature in your book. Photos that might illustrate each member's
specific phrase are particularly fun to add.
Creating Your Words of Wisdom Book
- Create a new book in Picaboo and select page layouts that allow you to add both photos and text to each page.
- Devote a page or two to each family member. Add the pictures that you have collected and copy and paste the text from your
word document into your book.
- When you are finished, use fun corners and custom backgrounds to make each page reflect the interests and personality of the
family member that is featured on that page.
When you are finished, you will have a wonderful keepsake bring a smile to your family members' faces each time they pick
it up.
