The Pocket Mod

I am forwarding this link for the PocketMod. It is a little personalized notebook that you can make online with a single piece of paper. You can customize each page with a variety of templates in different categories such as calendars, to do lists, reference guides, games, etc. They even have sudoku puzzles that you can include. I just made David his very own Pocket Mod. I think he was impressed - especially with the conversion reference page that included things like the speed of light in a vacuum. -something you might need to know on any given day. Also, did you know that 1 cubic foot of water weighs 62.32 lbs? I had no idea.

The tricky part of this little book is in the folding. I have actually folded paper exactly like this for several kid projects at the Arts Center. It's great for making blank books and you can even add a separate cover to make it a bit fancier. In one case, we made Valentine Books and included "Things We Love" on each page. Another time, we hiked the Botany Trail and made leaf prints on the pages.

Let me know which template on PocketMod is your favorite.
