Photo Fun

SURPRISED!

PHOTO BOOK
Last night, I came across this idea when I was reading Nick Jr. Magazine (Feb/March 2008) to my girls. Alice Wilder, Ed.D., cofounder of THINK IT INK IT PUBLISHING, gives tips on making a funny face book in the Nick Parent's Connect section of the magazine. I couldn't resist. It looked like so much fun. Here are just a few of her suggestions for capturing your "kid's favorite expressions in print."

1. Warm up before the big photo shoot with a funny face off!

2. Using a digital camera, take photos of your child being silly. Call out different expressions while shooting- surprised, angry, stinky,freezing, etc.

3. Publish the book together. Print out the best shots and paste on paper. Have your child create a decorative cover and then bind with ribbon or metal rings.

Take a peek at a few more photos that we've selected below!


ANGRY! grrr!


SO, SO SILLY!


SUGAR AND SPICE...

After finishing our photos for our book, we decided to have a little fun. We tried to take our own group photo by stretching out Mom's arm. We couldn't stop laughing as we reviewed the digital photos. We had a difficult time getting everyone in the photo and my kids just thought it was hysterical.

FAMILY BLOOPERS!!

The girls and part of Mommy

Oops! Where are the kids?
