My First Journal: A Fun and Exciting Activity Book for Kids

Oct. 30, 2011 - PRLog -- Some adults have a fear of journaling, of getting their thoughts on paper. Writing a life story means getting out of a comfort zone, remembering details of a life that may be difficult to remember or so long ago that it’s hard to remember. But children aren’t afraid of telling stories. Writing and drawing is a way for them to let their creativity flow. As a child works on his journal, he will have so much fun with the activities that he won’t realize how important his journal will be to him in the future. When he gets older, he will be able to look at his journal and recall all the wonderful, silly, exciting and maybe scary times he lived through.

"My First Journal" will tell the story a child wants to remember -- what she was like when she was young. Adults have memories of childhood, but some of those memories can be fuzzy. When an adult looks at her childhood journal, those memories won’t be so distant anymore. An adult will have her first journal for the rest of her life. And as memories fade, her journal will remind her of days long ago.

My First Journal takes a snapshot of a child’s life and preserves it for him to take into adulthood. With My First Journal, a child can document his early years and take this record with him as he travels along his life path.

My First Journal is a fun-filled activity book that children can use to document their early years. Blank journals usually result in confused glances. "What do I write about?" they ask. Instead, you can give your child My First Journal where he or she can write, draw, scribble, and paste in favorite photos. Each page offers a different activity on a variety of topics: home, school, family, friends, feelings, dreams, goals, and much more. There are pages to jot down ideas, write about a favorite birthday, tell about a recent wish, invent something, and rate the last movie watched. Friends can also get involved. The activities will stir any child's imagination and give a creative outlet that's fun and exciting. Your child will create a book that can be treasured forever...

As adults, some of us have journals from when we were kids and reading our words from long ago gives us a sense of nostalgia. With My First Journal, kids can create something that they will be happy to have in their 20s, 30s, 40s, and later in life.

My First Journal is available at most online bookstores, including amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com.
