Self-made growing little book, kindergarten boyHere are some tips for making a self-made book for kindergarten boys:
* * 1. Confirm the theme and content **
1. * * Growing up **
- Starting from the boy's birth, you can choose a photo of him at birth (if there is one) and briefly describe his birth situation, such as weight, length, and other basic information. For example,"When the baby is born, you will be like a cute little angel. You will weigh 3 kilograms and be 50 centimeters long."
- The important moments in his growth, such as the first time he walked or spoke. "I still remember the first time you walked. You staggered toward Mommy. You looked so cute." "The first time you called out 'mom', you melted my heart."
- The details of her life in kindergarten, such as the first good friend she made, the interesting activities she participated in, and so on. "In kindergarten, you and Xiaoming became good friends. You built blocks together, drew together, and spent a lot of happy times."
2. * * Hobbies **
- If the boy liked cars, he could create something around the theme of cars. For example, draw some different types of cars and then write a simple introduction beside them, such as "This is a fire truck. The red fire truck can quickly rush to the scene when there is a fire and put out the fire."
- If he liked animals, he would use animals as the theme. For example,"There are many animals in the zoo. Your favorite gibbon has a long neck that can reach very high leaves."
3. * * Dreams and Fantasy **
- He wanted to be an astronaut, so he could draw spaceships, planets, and write,"You want to be an astronaut, fly a spaceship through the universe, and explore the mysterious outer space."
- Some were stories filled with fantasy, such as the boy entering a magical world and encountering all kinds of magical things.
* * 2. Production Form **
1. * * Small paper book **
- * * Material preparation **
- The paper could be thick cardboard or A4 paper. If you want more texture, you can use colored cardboard.
- Drawing tools, such as colored pens, watercolors, oil painting sticks, etc., were used to draw patterns.
- Scissors were used to cut the paper, and glue or glue sticks were used to stick the pages.
- * * Production Steps **
- First, determine the number of pages in the small book. Generally, 8 - 12 pages are more suitable for the attention of kindergarten boys.
- Draw or paste the relevant content on each page according to the previously determined theme. If it was a photo, he could print it out first, then cut it to a suitable size and paste it on the page.
- Add a simple text description on the page. It could be written by an adult, or it could encourage the boy to write some simple words or letters.
- Arrange all the pages in order and stick one side of the page with glue or glue stick to form a small book. You can use colored strokes to write the boy's favorite pattern or the name of the book on the front and back cover of the book, such as [Boy's Name]'s Growing Book.
2. * * Cloth book (more suitable for young boys who like to use their hands)**
- * * Material preparation **
- Non-woven fabric (various colors), used to make the pages and patterns of small books.
- Scissors were used to cut non-woven cloth.
- Needle and thread or hot melt glue gun (if you use needle and thread, be careful; hot melt glue gun is suitable for adults), used to paste or sew the page and pattern together.
- Velcro (option). If you want the little book to have some interaction elements, such as moving patterns, you can use Velcro.
- * * Production Steps **
- First, he planned out the content of each page. Similar to a small paper book, he decided on the patterns related to the theme.
- Cut out the shape of each page using a non-woven fabric. It could be rectangular or other interesting shapes, such as the shape of a car or an animal.
- Then, he would cut out a pattern that was related to the theme. For example, if the boy liked dinosaurs, he would cut out the shape of dinosaurs.
- If you use a needle and thread, sew the pages together. If you use a hot melt glue gun, stick the pages and patterns together. If there was a magic tape, you could use magic tape to paste the pattern that needed to be moved on the page. For example, dinosaurs could move on different scenes (grasslands, forests, etc.).
3. * * E-book **
- * * Using the online platform **
- Platform like Yunzhan. com and Flbook could be used to create e-books.
- Take Yunzhan. com as an example. First, organize the photos or paintings of the boy's growth.
- He categorized the material according to the previously determined theme, such as chronology or theme (such as family life, kindergarten life, etc.).
- If the material needed to be edited (such as photo trimming, adding text, etc.), it could be processed in advance.
- Then, he uploaded the materials to Yunzhan. He could upload the pictures directly for online editing and layout. He could also upload the files that had been typed in PowerPoint, Word, or PDF.
- On the cloud exhibition website, you can drag, zoom, rotate, crop, and other operations on the image. You can also add text, background, borders, and other elements. You can also add audio or video to make the small book more vivid. After the production is completed, you can generate an exclusive link/QR code/small program to share with your family and friends.
- It was the same for the flbook. First, he would choose the template for the baby's growth manual on the official website, then replace the photo in the template with the boy's photo. He could also add music or videos, and finally click publish and export to share it on social media platforms through the QR code.
