Kids are idea machines. I am quite jealous, to them a
creative block is not being able to find a pen or pencil! A
great place for ideas to form is in notebooks/sketchbooks.
I have no idea how many books we have purchased from the
dollar section at Target... nothing fancy, just something easy
to carry around. Actually, my daughters prefer the lined
notebooks; again, the kid-friendly, low-pressure factor is
what is most important. We have journals in the car,
bedroom, living room, toy box--everywhere.
They begin as empty books and end up filled with drawings,
poetry, math practice, tic-tac-toe games, autographs, kid-made
surveys, illustrations of things wished for, documentations of
recent events, etc.

E loves her notebooks and they're fascinating to look through! Now that you have brought this to my attention I think my son needs a notebook of his own too! Great work from your girls!
