Then, she can keep the memories, print copies, or create scrapbooks later without having to crate around huge receptacles of paper projects. (I think she does actually keep one or two of the best pieces here and there). There also is a cool website somewhere that I've lost track of where you can scan in some of your child's artwork, and they'll create a poster featuring a neat collage of it for you.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10425229087221100672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613113213749639426.post-30587341262344152822007-10-30T12:09:00.000-04:002007-10-30T12:09:00.000-04:00Also, remember it is often the process that is imp...Also, remember it is often the process that is important. The actual doing. So save what is special to you and don't feel bad about throwing the rest.purplemommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06000107216140757124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613113213749639426.post-7690358002998615432007-10-30T10:28:00.000-04:002007-10-30T10:28:00.000-04:00I too do what a few of the commenters have suggest...I too do what a few of the commenters have suggested. I've gotten frames for a few of them and hung them up, others I have put in a storage container. Son LOVES looking thru them on rainy afternoons (he is 9 now). The art load also slows down BIG time once they hit elementary school.<BR/>Another idea is to take a picture of it and then you can make a 4x6 size photo album of their artwork and keep it on the coffee table. They'll love looking thru it and remembering making them.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09708845944327765757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613113213749639426.post-26833354716131824932007-10-30T00:04:00.000-04:002007-10-30T00:04:00.000-04:00I like what a friend of mine does.

Then she prunes it, keeping some pieces and getting rid of others. She keeps a photo album of the "art gallery" photos.KMFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07544062327602622061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613113213749639426.post-58471828656963137292007-10-29T22:34:00.000-04:002007-10-29T22:34:00.000-04:00I'm going to frame the really nice ones and hang t...I'm going to frame the really nice ones and hang them in a fun place -their bedrooms, or a playroom if you have one...

I go through them at the end of the school year and save several that are especially nice. He also comes home with paper with random scribbles. These don't make it to the bin. Between 5 days of school per week and art projects at church, you just can't keep everything.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
