Review - Scrapbook Made By Me!


This month we received a scrapbook to review, from Parragon Book Buddies. The Scrapbook Made by Me! is the perfect way to allow children to express themselves! There are tips and tutorials to help them create the perfect keepsake book filled with happy childhood memories. The scrapbook has over fifty pages for children to doodle, draw, colour and stick! There are also over a hundred stickers, including stick-on frames and eight patterned papers, which include eight different designs per sheet! Scrapbook Made by Me! is available here for only £6.99 and is part of Parragon's brand new 'tween' range.

I cannot believe this book is less than £10! It is absolutely perfect for my eight year old daughter! Abi loves the colours and the patterns used throughout. She especially loves the pages that have images of cats and dogs! I actually love this scapbook just as much as Abi and have really enjoyed sitting down and getting creative with her. The different fonts and quirky 'hand-drawn' sketches keep the book exciting and modern! There are pages to add photos, answer questions, list things you love, draw pictures and there's even plenty of wording and borders to colour-in, as well as blank pages leaving you the freedom to create your very own masterpiece. The scrapbook is a hardback cover but comes in a very handy card cover that has pockets to keep the scrapbook and stickers, papers and even your photos or images safe when not in use!

This scrapbook provides hours of fun and creativity so I have bought a few for the girls to give to their friends as Christmas gifts. Parragon Books have a huge range of excellent childrens books, from facts to fiction and even activity books.
