Our Weekly Very Merry Gift Idea from Make-My-Books.com - Through The Years Photo Book

At last, we have reached the last desperate hours of gift giving. With only 5 days to finish your sprint to the big day, the Make My Books team has one more idea to help you build the perfect photo book.

Through The Years

 In the holiday season, we share memories with friends and family, rejoice in the lives we've lived and people we've become. We think of family members passed and new lives beginning. We've all experienced those moments when we wished we had all of our favorite snapshots from years gone by right at our fingertips. This year, select your favorites and compile your own Through The Years photo book. From long lost ancestors to family vacations, your memories can be shared each day in the form of a beautiful keepsake!

Remember, Make My Books is offering 15% off your photo book purchase until 1/2/13. Simply enter promo code HAPPYHOLIDAYS to receive your discount!

School Years

As our children grow, the images of their youth become hazy (as I write this post, I can think of moments when I could not tell which baby was which when looking at photos). With a keepsake photo book from Make My Books, you can see your child grow year over year!  

Growing Up - Choose images from your child's early years and compile a photo book as a reminder of the joy you felt in watching your little one grow.

Elementary Days - School pictures and elementary school events make perfect memories for a custom photo book you can share with the whole family.

Junior High Life - Share the memories of first dances, good friends, and events that may be forgotten in the hustle and bustle of every day.

High School Memories - The road to adulthood is filled with images of love, friendship and success. Share these memories for years to come with a keepsake photo book.

What are some of your favorite family memories that belong in a keepsake photo book?

School Fundraisers Can Be Healthy and Profitable

From the Center for Science in the Public Interest:

"Virtually all schools in America raise funds to pay for supplies and equipment and to supplement other school activities. Most schools (76%) hold between one and five fundraisers per year, and one in four schools holds between five and ten fundraisers per year, making school fundraisers a common, and often constant, part of students', staff, and parents lives."

"Many school fundraisers involve the sale of unhealthy foods. Of the schools that sell food through fundraisers, 76% sell chocolate candy, 67% sell high-fat baked goods, and 63% sell non-chocolate candy. "

Make My Books (www.make-my-books.com) is proud to offer a healthy alternative to traditional fundraising!
