Shhhhh!

I have found such helpful and inspiring blogs that led me to making a quiet book for my own daughter, that I thought it only fair to share my experience with others. So here is my journey through making a quiet book, one page at a time.

A Through Z

When making an alphabet book, the first step is to come up with words for each of the letters of the alphabet.  With the help of my husband and brother-in-law, here is the list we came up with for the Adirondacks:

A - Animals
B - Boat
C - Campfire
D - Dock
E - Enchanted Forest (a water park in Old Forge, NY)
F - Fireworks
G - Going Fishing
H - Hiking
I - Ice Cream
J - Jet Ski
K - Kayak
L -Lake
M - Mountains
N - Night Sky
O - Old Forge, NY (The main town on the Fulton Chain Lakes)
P - Picnic
Q - Quilt
R - Rocky Point (The mountaintop where my husband proposed to me)
S - Swimming
T - Trees
U - Underwater
V - Vacation
W - Waterskiing
X - eXtra Fun (It doesn't start with X...but xylophone doesn't go with the theme!)
Y - Yellow Sun
Z - Zzzzz (I know it's not a word, but my husband vetoed "Zany Family")

I'll be sharing one page design at a time...and hopefully the finished page to go along with each.  The designing and planning of the book was a blast.  I hope the creating is just as fun!
