I am the mom of 4 girls, so I know the excitement from the presenting of a new creation of theirs, whether in pen and paper, crayon and marker, clay, macaroni, pipe cleaners, etc. I also know the stress of feeling horrible about not being able to keep it all. We have moved three times in the last 4 years, and all of that "stuff" is heavy to lug around from place to place!
Therefore, I am very excited about this new app! Only for iPhone now, Android is supposedly coming out in September (I will update with a new post as soon as it does). The app is called Artkive, and according to this post on Daily Candy. Here is a quote from that blog:
"Simply snap a picture of the artwork and the app automatically tags
each image with your child’s name, grade, and date created. Add a title
or description and then share the gallery with other parental units or
whomever you invite to your circle.
But hold tight: The real
genius of Artkive will be realized a few months into the school year
(your refrigerator door is still clear!) when you’ve collected enough
images to turn your digital collection into a customized coffee-table
book with just the press of a button."
OH MAN! Say WHAT?!?!?! Again, I have boxes of stuff at my Mother in Law's in Louisiana, just waiting for SOMETHING to be done with. Now I have an answer! And I had to share with all you moms and pops and grandmoms and grandpops out there.
If you try it out, let me know! I am anxiously awaiting the Android version.
