MY QUIET BOOK - PART ONE

I've been working for a while on a Quiet Book for my son.  I have to admit that this is definitely a time consuming project but it's pretty fun at the same time.  I did a lot of "blog surfing" for ideas before I started and came across some really good pages that i wanted to include in my book.  I also pulled out my creative side and came up with some of my own ideas as well.

Here are the pages that I have completed so far. I have many more pages that I'm in the process of completing and I will post more as I finish them.
GUMBALL PAGE
(The gumballs velcro onto the gumball machine)


SHOE PAGE
(I love this page! One shoe has velcro straps and one has laces. Just like real shoes)

STOP LIGHT PAGE
(The lights on the stop light button on and off. I used buttons in the same colors so that its also practices matching colors. The words are also outlined in the matching colors)

MR. SPUD PAGE
(I really like how this page turned out.  However, you may notice that it's called "Mr. Spud", I read on another blog that there was a copyright issue for using the actual name. So this is his cousin. LOL.  All parts velcro on an off.)

PAINT PALETTE PAGE
(I'm not completely finished with this page yet. It needs a heading or something else. I haven't decided yet, but I wanted to share it because I think it's cute!  The paint color attach to the palette with snaps.)

BANANA SPLIT PAGE
(Create a banana split by using velcro.  The ice cream scoops are stored in the ice cream container and the banana goes in the banana crate. I saw a lot of ideas for making hamburgers and sandwiches, but i came up with this idea and I think it came out so cute.)

WINNIE THE POOH PAGE
(I just finished this page and I am so loving it! My son is obsessed with Pooh and so I knew that I had to make a page with them.  This was my own idea right down to the freehand drawing and putting together the characters.   Pooh's red balloon, Tigger's ball, and Eeyore's tail all attach with snaps.)


I was so happy with the way these pages turned out that I can't wait to share more with you all!  I can't wait to give the book to Colton and watch him play with it!  



If you choose to use my page ideas and share them on your blog please give me return credit since I spend alot of time creating and thinking up ideas :) Thanks! :))
