I do a lot of crafts with the lil' ones I watch
Since their grandparents will be in town for Thanksgiving. I was trying to come up with something Thanksgiving/photo related that could be like a keepsake for their grandparents.
Maybe something they make, where we can still include a photo somehow?

Any ideas?

I don't just want to take a photo for their grandparents because that isn't something the kids made and isn't really thanksgiving related.

Does that make sense?
Any ideas?

I know many grandparents like "photobooks" of pics past and present which can be easily done by uploading to shutterfly, walmart, etc. it takes a week so that's more of a Christmas idea

We do some Snapfish books, I know Costco does them as well. They are similar to scrap-booking.

Thanks guys, great ideas! But I was actually thinking more of something the kids can actually make.

Like for Father's day they glued their photo to Popsicle sticks and I helped them cut it out, so it was a puzzle with their photo and they helped make it.

I have 2 more days to figure it out ;)

Have them make photobooks. Just make construction paper pages bound with a mix of photos and their drawings.
