DIY Journal For Kids

Help your kids make their own journal so they can process events and emotions in their own way with this easy DIY journal project.

Print out as many pages as you'd like of the journal kit.
Cut out all the pages, cover, and "stickers."
Put your DIY journal together.
Fold the cover down the middle.
Place one page inside the cover on the right side. Color a pattern strip, apply glue to it, and place the strip down the middle of the inside of the cover, overlapping the left edge of the page.
Repeat this process with every page you want to add. You can also use decorative tape instead of gluing the paper strips.
Optional, speed up the process by placing all the pages inside the cover at the same time, closing the cover, and stapling along the edge.
Let your child color and decorate the pages as they'd like.
For an extra decorative touch, use one of the paper pattern strips to decorate the spine of the DIY journal. Color it and then glue it to the center of the cover, with the cover laying open and flat.
