Book Reviews of Humble Bumbles' Baby Journal: A Keepsake Journal for Baby's First Three Years (featuring the adorable Humble Bumble characters)
Book Review: Pretty good journal
Summary: 4 Stars
I really like this journal. It is organized and has good ideas for putting pictures into the pages. The only thing I wish was different is I would have liked a little more detail in the information. I would have liked to add more memories to it that don't fit on the pages. I love the quotes at the bottom of the pages. I like that it goes up to 3 years. Book Review: Great Fun Book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is great it gives you room to put pictures and other items of importance as well as give you ideas what is important to remember to write down. I also like that the book goes beyond the 1st year, it makes a great gift. This is the second one I am buying.Book Review: Great Baby Book
Summary: 5 Stars
We used this Baby Journal for our first son, and we are planning on using it for our second child, too. I love that it goes up to age three, and the pages are very colorful and large enough to attach photos, and write captions or stories to go along with the photos or events. A growth chart is included which is an added bonus. I looked at many other baby journals and am glad I went with this one!Book Review: Fun, Comprehensive, and Adorable Baby Book
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased one baby book for my son, and this one for his twin sister - between the two, this is definitely my favorite, and I have yet to see any other book that I like better. As previous reviewers have suggested, this book is cute, without being cheesy. It is bright and whimsical and has a nice layout.
I love the pre-cut photo frames, which really add a "finished" touch to the album - great for those of us who want a neat book but don't have the time or skill to do a real scrapbook.
Some of the pages that this book includes are: Family Trees, Baby Shower, All About Baby, All About Mommy, All About Daddy, A Few Thoughts About Before you Were Born, Hand and Foot Prints (you have to buy the ink pads), The World Around You, Thoughts On the Day of Your Birth, Announcing Your Birth, Celebrating Your Birth (for Christening/Bris memories), Thoughts on the First Few Weeks of Your Life, 2 pages of "Firsts," special pages (including space for pictures) for First Tooth, First Steps, First Outing, First Holiday Celebrations, First Pet, and First Haircut. There are about 4 pages dedicated to Years 2 and 3.
Book includes a velum envelope at the front that can hold cards and photos, an envelope for the hospital bracelet, and an envelope for a clip from the first haircut.
The space for entries is adequate, without being overwhelming, and there is a nice layout for pictures next to most written memories. I love this album, and think it will be a delight for my daughter to read when she is older!
Book Review: it was only a so so baby book
Summary: 3 Stars
I have this book fully filled out for my almost 6 year old. Overall it is a good book. I found the picture frames to be almost worthless, finding it much better to just cut and paste the pictures in so I could fit more. There was very limited space for writing things, so the page of firsts is filled in and then I added lots of other important firsts that I felt needed recording. The family tree is weak, they don't have spots for all the great grandparents so we ended up putting the maternal's paternal great grandparents on the great grandpa line, etc. My daughter wanted to know why great grandpa was Josephine.
I did like the spiral bound aspect of it because after I pasted in all the keepsakes and filled the very nice envelope with stuff it all fits. I wouldn't buy this book again, but it worked okay for my first daughter, and at this point I am too sentimental to get another book and transfer the information.
Oh yeah and it is a Christian book, which annoys me a bit but I know many wouldn't have a problem with it.
