Or just as likely, we’ve got questions and you’ve got answers.

Parents SAVE your child's backpack at the end of the year and use it as a time capsule for everything special that was brought home that year! I store everything my kids bring home from school in these boxes (see below) then at the end of the year I empty the boxes into their backpack for that year, and throw it in the attic..... This totally prohibits me from saving more than we need , and eliminates hoarding....you can sneak photos, a soccer jersey, a trophy, dance costume and much more into these sweet time capsules! I cant WAIT to give my kids their bags someday (if they have the same name. Plus they may want to reuse them for their kids too....you never know! Cheers! Good luck!
