We designed this book for parents who want a baby book with less statistics and more heart. Childhood, A History is a place to write down your child's story in a meaningful, but non-overwhelming way.

About the Book

The book’s prompts focus less on statistics and more on the heart - their ideas, passions, special talents, and funny quirks.

Spanning from birth to eighteen (including two pages for pregnancy) it includes yearly sections for birthdays, adventures, interests, and fun age-appropriate prompts.

Whether you’re a brand new parent or your child is a bit older and you want to “catch up” (it’s not too late!) this journal is designed to help you capture little windows into who your child is and who they are becoming.

- 80# text, partially recycled paper

- 6.75 x 8.75 inches

No-Hassle Returns

Not sure if this journal is right for you? We get it, sometimes you just need to have it in your hands.

Less Statistics, More Heart

After feeling guilty about missing time-sensitive things in our own kids' baby books, we spent a year designing a book focused less on documenting statistics and more on the things that actually matter - the moments, memories, and unique insights that we’d want to cherish for years to come.

Didn't start when they were babies?

Neither did we! The good news is, this is the journal where (with the help of your photos on your phone) going back is actually possible. And remember, it doesn’t need to be perfect! It just needs to be heartfelt.

Built to Last Generations

An heirloom to be passed on to future generations, these books are made in the US with the highest quality materials.The covers are made of cotton linen and the books are smyth-sewn bound, making them layflat and virtually indestructible.

I love these books

I have gotten one of these books for each of my children. They are easy to sit down and fill out. I love the blank pages for attaching birthday invitations, pictures, etc. I look forward to my children reading over these the way I enjoyed my own baby book.

Perfect book for people getting a late start or looking for more personalization

I felt SO guilty for not keeping a baby book for my son and daughter. I ordered one for each of them, and I LOVE them. It doesn't ask me for things that I'm not likely to remember-- like height/weight, and instead I can focus on memories, moments, holidays. I'm so glad I got this book!

Beautiful covers. Wish I had found this sooner. Far less stressful than the average "baby book". A great heirloom.

Memories not milestones

I didn’t start a true baby book with my first son. When he turned 2, I also had a 4 month old. I didn’t want to keep getting further behind but most books were about milestones and growth. My first was delayed in most milestones so that was hard for me to go back through. This journal has changed that for me. I’m able to record and remember more than height, weight, and when they rolled or babbled or sat up for the first time. I get to record the most precious memories and gift them to my sons later in life. This is something my mom wishes she would have had! I’m so thankful for this book & the joy it has brought my family already.
