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.

Materials

- Cotton linen cover

- 80# text, partially recycled paper

- 6.75 x 8.75 inches

- Made in the U.S.

Shipping

We offer flat rate shipping via USPS for all orders (3-10 business days for domestic orders) and priority shipping (-3 business days).

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. Go ahead order the book, open it, flip through the pages, and if you decide it’s not the right fit for you simply send it back using our return portal. We only ask that the book be in its original condition, and for a small fee of $3 to help with return shipping costs.

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.

Helping me remember a time easy to forget

Between the sleepless nights, the healing, and just keeping up with life with kids, it is so easy to forget all of the moments, both big and small…all of which are precious and important.
Grateful to have this book that will help me remember. Years from now, i will happily hand it down to my daughter and we will hopefully look back at the memories that may have faded away.

Exactly What I Needed

The book is exactly what I needed. Simple, so it doesn’t overwhelm me. Empty pages with no prompts, for me to add small pictures or anything I’d like. It’s so perfect for me!

I LOVE these baby/childhood books! Classic and simple, and the perfect way to record the best memories with my children.

I really like this childhood book. I love that it extends through all 18 years, and not just the first handful. I haven’t been great keeping up with my two older children; I initially bought this for my third child, and really liked its memory style prompts as opposed to just facts, and ended up buying two more for my older ones. I don’t remember all the fine details, but the memories make it easy (it’s very similar to journaling if that’s your thing.) This is definitely the type of book I’ll gift to friends, and I’m really glad I have them for my own children. Thanks for a great product!

Brilliant

We have 2.5 year old twins, they were born in Europe - far from either of our families. When they were 1 we moved to the USA, even further from families and help. Despite our best intentions we never could keep journals for the twins as there was just no time. It was something I always felt bad about, until I found ‘kept’. It made it so easy to go back and start their books from the beginning. I absolutely love it and the quality is world class too. Highly recommended for any parent.

Fantastic Book-Childhood, a History

My son is 22. And yes- I just bought this incredible book. I had a cute, 5 yr book all filled out- it focused on the milestones mainly. However, this book is so much better. It spans the whole 18 years and gives much more detail than any current book on the market. More details gives you more meaning with each story you tell. I’ve got my photo album out and am reliving many of these experiences. I am adding photos to many of the stories. I love the different layouts - there is one where you can just circle the answers that apply. Easy to work through. Honestly the best book out there. I will finish this and give it to my son this Christmas. This is really what we want when thinking of a baby book… a real, rich history.

A beautiful heirloom

I wanted a childhood memory book I would feel good about passing down to my daughter when she’s grown and this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. It’s thoughtfully designed and high quality. Nothing else I’ve seen on the market has come close!
