Kind of OT...What should I use

[LWatson]

So we bought the boys an autograph book for their first Disney Trip back in Feb. They have a lot of signatures in it, but its still got empty pages. In 2wks we have a character breakfast to attend in TN (Disney Princess, Shrek, Marvel Comic Super Heroes). Should I just reuse that autograph book or should I figure out something else b4 then? I was thinking of reusing it too in Dec when we go back...or should I just get a new one then too since this was their first one?

I think it would depend if it is going to be always used for memorabilia, or if your boys might one day sell them. Personally I would buy another book to use specifically for the breakfast because I picture my DS would one day want to sell it as a collector's item.

I've never heard of selling them as collector's items. Interesting.

I would get a different one, just because that was their "first". If you want to reuse that one for your Dec trip, I'd put in some sort of decorations on the page to separate the trips.

For this event, I think a neat thing to do would be to have the characters sign those large index cards. Then, you can make your own photo autograph book using a small photo album - I think they sell the ones on spirals? That'd be the right size - and the kids could decorate the autographs with stickers if you would want to personalize it. Then, it would also give them a craft, to make a new "cover" (intro page if you don't have a cover slot or can't glue on a cover) for the album.

I was just thinking the same thing a few min ago. I told my cousin I might just use index cards...LOL. My oldest is super excited about the breakfast because of Spiderman/Hulk/Captain America so I think we might look for a super hero themed photo album.
