The “My Preschool Memory Book” is a heartfelt end-of-year keepsake designed to honour each child’s unique early learning journey. This 6-page portfolio template helps educators capture meaningful moments, relationships, and milestones as children prepare to transition from preschool to kindergarten.
What’s Inside the Memory Book?
Each page invites reflection, celebration, and connection:
- Title Page—Personalised with the child’s name and photo, setting the tone for a treasured keepsake.
- A Few of My Favorite Things—Children share their favourite foods, colours, activities, and more—offering families a snapshot of their child’s preferences and personality.
- My Educators Page—A space to honour the relationships built with educators, including photos and messages.
- Snapshots of Me—A visual gallery of the child’s year, showcasing play, learning, and growth.
- Friends' Autographs—Children can collect signatures or drawings from their peers, reinforcing friendships and social bonds.
- Goodbye Preschool Page—A gentle farewell with space for final reflections, hopes, and affirmations as children step into their next chapter.
Why It Matters
This memory book isn’t just a collection of pages—it’s a bridge between early learning and formal schooling. It helps:
- Children feel proud, seen, and emotionally prepared for change.
- Families reflect on growth and celebrate achievements.
- Educators document learning in a warm, child-centred format.
Practical Use
Available in PDF and Word formats, the template is easy to customise with photos, text, and artwork. It aligns with EYLF principles and supports child portfolios, end-of-year celebrations, and transition documentation.
Whether gifted during graduation, shared at a farewell picnic, or sent home with a handwritten note, the My Preschool Memory Book becomes a cherished reminder of early years magic.
Would you like help adapting this into a planner insert, visual poster, or branded campaign resource? I can also help design symbolic motifs or reflective prompts to pair with each page.
