Birthday Interview Questions have become more popular recently, and I am loving it!
We always get hilarious answers. I try to ask the same or similar questions each year to see the silly differences. The younger they are the more obnoxious their answers.
My favorite time to ask these is on their birthday, but you can ask them any time and still have adorable responses.

How to File Your Kid's Memories
I think it's so important to have a place to collect all of these adorable memorabilia, so I have a system similar to this one. I have a waterproof box, file folder, and I keep a few things each year. The most important, or my most favorite are these sheets where they say adorable things.
Here are the items I use to create a memory box to collect my favorite memories. You can check out the prices for each of these on Amazon by clicking on the links.
First, you'll need the clear tote. I love this because it's clear, waterproof, and hold's hanging file folders so you can easily see which child is in each box.
Next, we need those hanging file folders. I like these ones because they are clear, so you can see quickly what is in each one, similar to the benefit of the clear tote. For the folders, I like it because each school year can have it's own folder, with the first page being their school picture that year.
If clear doesn't matter to you, that's totally fine, grab these colorful file folders, and just glue or tape the picture to the front.
Next, I highly recommend a laminator so you can find security in knowing you have these memories as protected as possible.
Here is also a video showing you the same process I used.

Why Interview a 3 Year Old?
Informal interviews with my little is my favorite way to keep up with the fun aspect of toddlers. They view the world in such a sweet way, I want to remember it forever because it's such a short time.
I have a notebook I keep where I write down some of the things my children say that I want to remember.
This is a great way to remember the beautiful memories of the toddler years. I love comparing what they want to be when they grow up year to year.
My middle son wanted to be a gardener for the longest time, but when he turned five, he decided he wanted to be an artist when he grows up. Click here to see the gifts I give him to encourage his love of art, and watch him grow into an artist!
I hope you are as delighted by the answers as we are. I didn't realize how “old” I was, haha.
