I have mounds of genealogy - photos, charts, newspaper clippings - the works. It currently resides in two very full drawers and a box in the living room (as well as on the computer). I have big charts on the wall (extending down the hallway!). I want my kids to know and love these people. When I'm feeding my baby I recite his lineage to him. I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to do a genealogy scrapbook. I'm thinking something that will make learning about ancestors more interesting and easier for kids - really accessible and fun. Something to look through at bed time or maybe as a quiet book for Church (no originals - just copies of photos and documents!). Not too far back - maybe only four or five generations. I am scrapbook-clueless, so it would need to be simple.

Ideas? How would you arrange it?
