2008 KID AWARDS

I found this darling idea on a friend of a friend's blog. The credit goes to Rachel T. in Portland for this fun idea which is sure to be one of our new favorite traditions.

We had a "2008 Kid Awards" night where each of our children were presented with medals for outstanding accomplishments or new skills learned in 2008. Here they are with their awards:

Kaden takes home *Best Webkinz Knowledge* award
*Super Bike Riding Skills* award
*Skilled Reader* award



Ava cleans up with *Best Stinky Face* award
*Increasing Vocabulary* award
*Finally Walking* award



Lauren is proudly displaying her
*Beautiful Ballerina Gymnast* award
*Big Girl Potty* award
*Super Sharer* award

What a great idea! I seriously might borrow this--if that's okay!

Marnie said...

Of course you can borrow the idea! I borrowed it myself. One of my favorite things about blogging, besides keeping in touch with friends and family, is borrowing all of the great ideas and fun things that everyone is doing with their families.

I just came to your page via Jessica's page.. I hope you don't mind. I just wanted to tell you that your family is absolutely beautiful and I love this awards idea! I was an elementary school teacher before I had my children, so this is so right up my alley. I may have to steal it from you! :) Take care...
