Oh, What You Said!: A Journal for Recording the Surprising Things Children Say

Your quotable kid.

Kids really do say the darnedest things. Some bons mots or cute phrases spoken by tots are remembered and passed on, to the delight of relatives and friends -- and to the children themselves when they are older. Sadly, most of these surprise utterances are quickly forgotten, lost in the daily domestic chaos. Even worse, over time they may be attributed to a sibling.

When a daycare-age daughter says to a playmate, "I love you, Joshua, and I'm wearing big-girl underpants," it's worth writing that down in a book, right? How about, "I want to be a veterinarian or fight evil aliens"? This keepsake album, with its lively and colorful design, is just the place to record such hilarious comments, unexpected turns of phrase, bafflingly insightful remarks and tender admissions so that they remain part of family history forever.

Oh, What You Said! becomes a great keepsake for both parent and child, and a wonderful gift for any family with young children.
