Description of this celebration activity:
Photos capture a moment and are treasures for a lifetime. Create the ultimate family photo collage. This is something that you can display in your home now and then put away for future generations to enjoy.

Setting up and preparing for this celebration activity:
1. Spend time going through old family photos.
2. Decide which ones capture the best moments from your family history.
3. Get yourself a huge piece of oak tag (available at any stationary or art store) and a glue stick or double sided tape.
4. Cut photos out into interesting shapes and glue or tape them onto the oak tag, overlapping them or grouping them to create interest.
5. Dig out old magazines and newspapers and create interesting captions, names, dates etc. for an added artistic touch.
6. Take it to a hardware store and have it laminated for history's sake!

Other suggestions or comments:
If you've taken a lot of pictures but never had the time to organize them, let tonight be the night to put them into chronological order and get them organized into photo albums. Future generations will appreciate your hard work and be able to treasure the photos forever.
