Jamin's Lapbook Lessons
Posted in Lapbooks
I know, the last thing I needed was ANOTHER blog! LOL But indeed I now have a lapbooking blog!
The reason I started a lapbooking blog is Valerie over at www.LapbookLessons.com contacted me to let me know that they now have an area at their site geared towards lapbooking and all things surrounding, and part of that is having a group of members who use lapbooks in their homeschooling. Here is the Members blogroll http://www.lapbooklessons.com/Blogroll.
The idea is just to have a big lapbooking site where people can come and learn what they need to about lapbooking and find what they're looking for. This is a place for people who don't want to spend money buying pre-made lapbooks to come learn from each other and get free lapbook ideas from each other.
I will also get webspace to host any lapbook files or printables I'd like to share. This is something I have had in the back of my mind for awhile, so I figured this would be a good opportunity to share more freebie in the future.
Right now everything on the lapbooking blog is the same as I have in my lapbooking section here. I probably won't post anything there I don't post here. So if you are reading this blog you really don't need to read that one too. (But you might want to check out the other lapbook blogs there!) The benefit is being able to be a part of an online lapbooking community. I figure if I can encourage one person to try lapbooking I will be paying forward the people who inspired me to get started.
Here is the link to my new lapbooking blog:

thats a great idea. I know I have benefited from your lapbook examples and ideas. I am getting more and more confident (slowly) in my own ability to put lap books together. My 6yr old loves them. We checked out Make Way for Ducklings, and I got a bunch of activities to make a duck lapbook. So fun!
