I used a 3/4 inch comb to allow for plenty of writing, as well as extra space where the kids can glue or tape in pictures or drawings they make on the trip. I used our binding machine to put together our DIY travel journals. I put a map of the United Kingdom along with each child’s name on the front cover.
I printed out one page of this template for each day of our trip.

After getting the kids’ input in putting together a special printable DIY travel journal template, which you can download here: I decided to make this summer’s travel journals extra special. This is a special travel summer for my family, because we are spending five weeks in the United Kingdom! It’s also special, because this is our first trip where the entire family can read and write, even if Anna only reads and writes a handful of words. Of Course, for this to work, kids need to LIKE their travel journals! My kids have kept travel journals since they were tiny, and we’ve used everything from improvised notebooks we grabbed at the nearest shop to decorating composition books.

Here is how I took an ordinary $ bin composition book and turned it to this (fully supply list included at the end of this post):Īdd embellishments to cover and use faux stitching on the pennant banner. In that spirit, I whipped up a cute travel journal for my 6 year old to record her adventures in each place. OK we are going to the Vegas strip to give a “Cliffnotes version” of what Paris, Rome, Italy, New York, Seattle and Egypt is like to my 5 and 6 year old. This summer we are going to travel the world. Since I am so lucky to be on both design teams I had a change to take a stab at two projects! My first project is a travel journal I made for my daughter. Bonjour! All week Xyron and Paper House have been traveling the world together!
