DIY Journal Activity Days Craft
DIY Journal Activity Days Craft! I teach Activity Days for the 8-9-year-old girls in my ward and we made DIY Journals for our last activity. They had a lot of fun getting creative and because it was personal it made them excited about keeping a journal. They each asked me to take a photo of their journal after and send it to their moms!
DIY Journal Activity Days Craft
WHAT YOU NEED:
Notebook
Scrapbook paper, ribbons etc.

- Start off your activity by explaining the benefits and importance of keeping a journal. (I also read them an entry from a journal of mine I had from when I was their age.)

- Let them go to work!
Good luck!

We homeschool our six children and our oldest (a daughter) is 9. I bet she’d really enjoy this.
How wonderful! My daughter would like this.
So cute! I know i would have loved this as a young girl! perfect for saving money on cute notebooks for the kids, having them make their own over the summer
Lookes great. i did modgepodge journals and it was fun! I love getting crafty with journals. i did them with my prayer journals.
Yes, this looks like a fun activity to do with my child. Always good to be creative.
That’s a cute notebook. Perfect way to update a plan notebook. Simple and easy.
Seems like she had a fun time! But it seems like a good project
This looks like a fun DIY project! It so nice to be creative and having fun making sometime out. Nice post!
How fun! I’ve been thinking of making a bullet journal so it’ll be so fun to customize my own cover!
Great idea! I love encouraging journal use in young kids, it can be such a powerful tool!
This is a great DIY about making your own journals 🙂 Yours turned out so cute
What a cute and personalized activity! My child would love this! She loves writing and she would love to make her own book!
My daughter would love a journal like this!! What a great way for them to write out their thoughts and record their days.
When I was studying, I would always cover my books and notebooks in different designs! This DIY makes me nostalgic! I love the idea!
What an adorable idea! My twins and I used to do this to their notebooks before school starts. It helps them keep track of their books and notebooks while at school.
