12 Scrapbooks: Ugh!!!!!!

What was I thinking when I decided to make a scrapbook for every child this year in my preschool class?? What was I thinking????? I am 3 years behind in my personal scrapbooks, come on now! They are cute I must say....but they sure take up alot of time. Yesterday I did 24 pages, yep 24~ I can't get the space page to scan right now, which is a pain... b/c it's really cute with an astronaut cut out and a piece of their art work scanned, shrunk and copied. I'll have to work on that...... This one is from our Nursery Rhyme & Fairy Tales week, remember I have to make 12 of each page. So... the layout has to be very very simple and easy. Otherwise I'd never get these done!

The words say: Nursery Rhymes & Fairy Tales (what we were doing)..

Chocolate Pudding Puddle Painting (we finger painted with chocolate pudding and stuck pig pictures on it, for part of "The Three Little Pigs" day...

Nursery Rhyme Day (where the kids dressed up and said one, while I video taped).....

Humpty Dumpty (the day we dropped eggs off a block wall, fun!)...

Little Miss Muffet (the crazy picture where she's sitting on a pillow making a nutty face...we made this book that said "Little Miss _______ (child's name little Mr. for the boys) sat on a tuffet, eating her/his curds and whey, along came a spider and sat down beside her/him and
this is what she had to say... the kids thought of something they'd say to the spider instead of running away...we made a book about this with finger print spiders, a crazy picture and their
quote...

Then it says "To name a Few" b/c these are just a few crazy things
we did that week!!!!

Next year I'll stick with my one end of the year video copied for everyone, that is time consuming enough! (And yep, they're getting those this year AND the scrapbooks!) Anyhoo- that's what I spent my ENTIRE Monday doing from noon thirty....on.........

And for the record, that white at the bottom, is not part of the page. Must have happened when I scanned it and I didn't fix it..oops!
