Why does it go from birth to eighteen?
Because most parents want to keep memories from every phase of their kid's childhood, not just the baby years!
I love the layout of the book and all the shortcut options to choose from. It feels low-stress and fun. The size is great as well.
Excellent quality, customer service, and product. Easy prompts to fill out.
The low-pressure nature of the Kept Journals have made it the perfect medium to capture memories of my girls. I ordered three, one for my four year old, one for my two year old, and one for my one year old. I am starting each now, and it is so easy for each stage. Whether starting years after the fact or starting at birth, it is the ideal journal. Thanks, Kept!
The format of this book is so unique and useful for people like me starting a little later and having a child that just didn't do a lot of the things little ones tend to do or struggle with in her earliest years. I am enjoying reliving some of our beautiful memories with my husband as we choose how to fill it out together a little at a time. Thank you for making this possible!!!
I love the space for each year and to be able to keep not just baby memories but all the way to 18.
so thrilled to finally have a "kept childhood history" book in my hands - it's as beautiful and timeless as i'd hoped it'd be! i love the forest color and cannot wait to start slowly filling it with memories & favorites.
High quality book.
I’ve gotten one of these for all of my 5 kids and it’s been so wonderful. As I catch up on the older kids I get to reminisce on their younger years.
Simple way to gather my thoughts for my graduating senior after 18 years of avoiding a “baby book”
My children are ages 9 and 6. While I purchased baby books for them, I only filled out a page or two. I have had lingering guilt since then! Thanks to Kept, my guilt is GONE! I am so excited to fill these out. I dutifully blogged every month but wanted a handwritten keepsake for them. This is the solution, and I look forward to filling it out with them. They are at an age where they are starting to ask me what their first word was, etc., and will love seeing me complete this project and learning about what they were like as babies!
