Why we made this book...
Why we made this book...
We designed this journal for parents (like us) who wanted a simple, non-overwhelming way to write down meaningful things from their kid’s childhood.
The prompts focus on getting to know your child at each age, highlighting special moments from each year, and capturing the cute things they say along the way.
frequently asked questions
What makes this different from other baby books?
- It’s actually easy and fun to fill out without being overwhelming.
- The prompts are less focused on statistics and more on the things that parents actually care about.
- It's built to last for generations.
My child is a bit older...can I still fill it out?
Absolutely!
We designed the book to be simple enough to go back and fill out, even if your baby is not a baby anymore :)
Why does it go from birth to eighteen?
We have nothing against baby books, but we found that most parents want to keep special memories from every phase of their kid's childhood, not just the baby years.
How do I know it will last?
- The binding is smyth-sewn (strongest binding ever).
- The paper is thick #80 premium paper from a wind-powered mill in Canada.
- The cover is built from a cotton linen material that is built to withstand drops, spills, and decades of regular use.
Can I put my child's name on the cover?
Yes! Simply select the imprint option above and type your child's name as you want it to appear. Please allow an additional 5-7 business days for us to customize your order before it ships.
What is the return policy?
Return your book for any reason within 30 after receiving it for a full refund, no questions asked.
This is the ideal baby book for the simple momma. I bought two books, one for my little boy and one for my little girl. The Kept books circle back to the best memories from my child's previous experiences in childhood. I am so thankful for the Kept book. I also love the way it stores so beautifully on a bookshelf.
I really like the “choose your own adventure” approach to this baby book. I am currently pregnant with my first baby and can’t wait to use this and not feel guilty for “missing” anything. My husband and I love the color too.
I love this! Bought to start for my six year old - I’ve been going through photos in my camera roll as I put in stories and notes from her birth till now. Definitely easy to “catch up” and go back in to fill it out!
Very sturdy book. You can just feel how well made it is. The prompts are very simple so they don't overwhelm.
We previously bought baby books from another company and became overwhelmed at keeping up with them and filling out all the details that we didn’t find as special as the memories that we wanted to remember. These Kept books are the perfect replacement and we are starting them over for our three kids and excited to spend time filling them out. I love how there are options for what to write and it’s not just typical baby book fill in the blanks!
Love this book so much! So sweet and thoughtful and fun to fill out!
I was very flustered with being behind on my kids memory book and it’s nice that this one consolidates everything!
I am terrible at remembering to fill out the baby book- this has allowed me to go back and fill in the important things when I finally get around to it! It’s a great quality book and highlights all the important things with blank space to add other things you might want to look back on.
this is the second kept book we’ve purchased as our family grows, we love them! they are such an open ended and natural way to record the special moments.
I’ve had the best intentions to keep a baby/memory book, took photos and saved the memorabilia but just couldn’t put it all together. We started my daughter’s KEPT book on her 18th birthday and it’s actually been fun recalling all of our great memories during her senior yr of HS!!
