After a lot of work behind the scenes for the past several months, I’m so excited to finally announce that my new book, the Question a Day Journal for Kids, is for sale! This book features 365 creative, kid-friendly prompts, designed to get kids aged 6-9 years old journaling.
I would love you to support my book. You can order your copy now.
Why Should Kids Journal?
Table of Contents
Did you keep a journal as a child? I did, and I still journal as an adult.
Journaling offers all sorts of great benefits for kids! Here are a few of my favorites:
- Journaling develops self expression. Children learn about themselves as they journal.
- Keeping a journal offers wonderful writing practice! A journal should be a safe space for children to write about their life.
- Journaling helps children process their lives. We think about our lives when we write about them.
- Journals help us capture important memories. I love looking over old journal entries and remembering parts of my life.
- Journaling makes us think. When we put pen (or pencil) to paper, we slow down and think about our lives.
