Board Book Albums Take Your Pix, Black

I bought this book for my son for his 1st birthday. I had been noticing his increased interest in staring at photos of my husband and I and our family around the house & realized this was the perfect time to introduce a family photo album to him. We have a rather large extended family, many of whom we don't see that often so i thought it would be nice to have everyone's photo in my son's first family album so he could get to see them whenever he liked. Low and behold, it was his favorite birthday present!We filled up all 20 pages with photos of his family and he loves turning the pages of the book and studying each photo - it's adorable. My husband and I often sit there and name all the different family members to him one by one and tell him little stories about them.I will say, the one drawback to this book is that I don't know if it'll truly hold up to the daily wear & tear. We've already had a few tears in the binding (some of the paper photo frames have pulled away from their backings) but it's nothing we haven't been able to repair with some tape or glue. This may just have to be kept aside as a special book that only comes out at certain times rather than being lumped in with the other board books on our son's bookshelf.

This little photo book is a hit. I ordered two and the boys love to thumb through the photos. Our first book is for photos of family members they don't see as often because they live out of town.These are things I like about it:* Holds twenty 4 by 6 photo spaces with an additional one on the front cover.* Pages are notched to help little hands turn the pages.* Covered with clear plastic to allow a wipe down when it gets smudged* Baby blue color is nice. Shows up when shelved with other photo albums.* Popular with toddlers, older children and adults.* Top is slit to allow the photos to slide into the frame.* Photos slide in fairly easily.Some reviews say the albums don't hold up well. We haven't had them long. I'll update if I have problems later.

I Loved this little baby's album, for the most part it was very sturdy for little hands, but what a disappointment with the front pocket of this album. It wasn't attached well to the front cover and it came part very quickly while putting in a photo. My granddaughter is 1 1/2 yrs old and that'll be the first thing that will be taken off in her hands because you just have to touch it and the whole sleeve come down. It looked much better constructed on online! I didn't return it because I was so looking forward to getting it and putting in all the photos that I had waiting for it to arrive.

I bought these albums for my friend's twins who are obsessed with pictures. I wanted to find something kid proof. The pictures go in up top so it would be impossible for them to get the pictures out. You do have to take the time to guide the pictures in the space instead of being rough and just pushing them in like you would with a normal photo album. The sides will pop if you push the picture too much. I wouldn't change the pictures too often. I hope the girls don't figure out that the sides can be taken apart if you try hard enough. But, then again I guess nothing is 100% kid proof. Everyone at my school thought they were really cute and wrote down the name of the website. They hold 20 pictures.

Cover Photo holder parted ways with the rest of the book immediately upon exiting the shipping envelope. Speed of delivery was exquisite but quality of this book's construction is suspicious. Especially so for something that is going to find its way into the hands of a toddler.My glue will do the trick in a pinch but it was a frustrating last minute turn of events to find book construction and repair added to my list of tasks for the evening.

I love this. heads up though, it says it holds 5x7", and it does, but the border on the pages of the book cut off sooo much of the picture!!! I ended up having to print a 4"x6" photo on 5x7 paper, because if you try to put in a photo that's only 4x6, it falls to the bottom of the book and only the top half of the picture shows. Anyway, it took some doing, but then end result is great.

Got this for my daughter when she turned one. Living far from family it was a great way for her to learn faces and names.. A year later it is still one of her favorite books to flip through, point people out and call them by name. 4 stars because the letters rub off of the cover quite easily.

Great idea for a 7-10 month old to start learning his/ her important words like mommy and daddy. The front picture holder was off when it arrived and wouldn't stick back. We just removed it.
