Kidcot Passport Book

[ashleyasiegel]

Anyone ever make a kidcot passport book? I am thinking about making one and combining it with the autograph book I am making for my daughter. I have never done the kidcot stations before and saw that they sell a passport but I don't know what the pages look like inside of it. What did you do to make yours? What size, papers etc?

If anyone has any pictures of what they did for me to look at it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks!
Ashley

A few of the DISigners have passport pages to use to create your own passports. Go over there and see what you can find. I got mine from DONATALIE and it turned out so cute! She has several to choose from. We just got back from WDW a month ago and DS (13) had a great time going to all the countries and getting a stamp. The CM also wrote something to him in their language. Good luck!

Thanks for the info but I must be blind because I can't find the DISigners page...if you could point me in the right direction it would be awesome!

Here is the Creative DISigns forum. I know PrincessNancy96 made one recently...I'm not sure where she posted it though. If I find it, I'll post again!

My son has one of the kidscot passports, it is the same size as a traditional passport, I haven't looked at the inside in a while, but I thought it was really cute. I will see if I can find it tonight to give you more specifics.

Thanks so much for directing me to the right place! I never knew that forum was on here...guess I never went down far enough

Just to clarify, I used Donatalie's amazing work!!!!! I saved them to my computer and printed them at artscow.com (overseas company took about 2 weeks to receive) but others have printed them at walgreens and gotten them in a week or less....

I will tell you we got RAVE rewiews from cast members who said these books were better than the ones that you buy at the park!!!!!

I made an autograph book/Kidcot Passport for my kids the last time we went to Disney. I used photoshop to create my pages then printed them out on cardstock. I made pages with each character's picture on them and a large place to sign (most need a lot of room due to "character" hands!). The kidcott pages each had the name of the country, national flag, a map that showed where there are on the globe, a spot for a stamp and another spot for someone to sign. I took all of the pages to Staples and had them laminate the covers and spiral bind the whole thing. We put them together "back to back" so that you would just flip the autograph book over and there was the Passport. We got TONS of compliments on them and the kids still love to pull them out and look at them. Here are a few of the pages, to get an idea.

** Another tip: bring the big sharpie markers with the retractable tips. They are easier for the costumed characters - again, because of the big hands!**
I hope this helps!
