My son began playing T-Ball when he was 4 and at that time I had no idea what a cute idea I would come up with. My hubs and I were so excited to begin this new phase in our lives, and the excitement began with picture day. That first day when you see your little player in full gear. You begin to imagine what the future has in store for your little player. And of course as eager and new parents we were ready to purchase all pictures necessary to share with the entire family ... but then as I am looking at the order form I see trading cards. I thought ... "what a cute idea, that is so much better than a regular wallet". So I splurged and got them. Next came fall, my son decided he wanted to give soccer a chance since baseball season was over we decided to sign him up. Picture day arrives and again there is nothing more exciting to me than picture day! It is so great to see the kids all geared up, plus the team pictures are super adorable. Anyway, I look at the order form and see trading cards again! I immediately got excited and purchased them. Once my soccer pictures arrived I really didn't know what I was going to do, so I had some card/Coupon organizers and figured to put them there while I decided if I ever was going to begin filling his scrapbook or just stash them in a box. Well another season of baseball arrived and I decided to just purchase the trading card and two years later here is where I am at...
I accidentally came up with this and I didn't do much!LOL When I tell other moms they are in love with this idea so I figured it should be shared. My plan is to continue to fill them in and at some point I will put them in a 3 ring binder like the boys do with their collectible trading cards. I think I will give it to him once he has "finished" playing sports or his son begins to play sports.
If you don't have these at home you can purchase them at Staples (or any office supplies store) for $4 for a 10 pack.
