My Infancy (page 9)
My Childhood (page 14)
My Teens (page 15)
This lesson is about you as an infant, a child and as a teenager.
It is a good opportunity to use up any of those photographs you still have left from these periods in your life, that is if you have them. I know that some of you are very limited in the number of photographs you have from your childhood and you are not expected to include what you do not have.
Write about what you remember from these three periods in your life. It would also be a good place to include the stories about your life that you have been told by relatives.
I know some of this seems to overlap other sections, but this is a place for you to fill in the gaps and complete what is the whole story of you growing up.
Tips and Hints for completing your book:
* Keep collecting/copying every photograph with you in it
* Don’t have any or many photographs of yourself….Take some! Take lots!
* Get a notebook or cheap exercise book and write down anything about yourself as it comes to you
* Use stuff you love (scrapbooking supplies)
* This is a good opportunity to use up your stash
* You could use your favourite colour scheme
* Try something different on every page
* Experiment on every page
* Use your own handwriting
* Scraplift if all if you want
* Be honest
* Use your own style of scrapbooking or try something a bit different
* Do the pages as simple or as elaborate as you choose
* Use hidden journaling to conceal sensitive or personal information
