Crafts/scrapbooking as a family tradition

Question
Angie,
I am a teacher of Family and Consumer Sciences in Ore City, Texas.  One of my classes is Child Development.  I am taking internet classes as well on how to set up projects using the internet. I am trying to set up a project that stresses the importance of family celebrating and following holidays and traditions. My question is this:  Would you have time to answer emails from some of my students on the value of scrapbooking as a prservation of family traditions and celebrations as well as a way to help children develop self confidence and sense of self esteem.  Thanks for any help you can give me.
Nicki J. Weems

Answer
I would be more than happy to answer those questions!  I'm actually working on my 2nd book which focuses on using scrapbooking in the classroom, to scrapbook the positives in a child's life.  Perhaps the questions posed by the students will help me, as well!

Looking forward to working with you on this project!
