Second Carnival of Notebooking is looking for submissions


I'll be hosting the second Notebooking Carnival next Friday, the 16th,
so you all have until noon on the 15th
to get in the posts that you want to include. If you already have
something specific in mind you want to send in, please go ahead and
send that, if not, how about a theme - "My Favorite Notebook Work For
This Year", since it is pretty much the end of the year. Post pictures
of your favorite notebooking study, your favorite page that your
child(ren) did (maybe it's something especially well done, maybe
something funny, whatever), a post about the subject your family
notebooked that most excited everyone, etc. Just drop me a line at
emeleel [at] gmail [dot] com, and please make sure to use the word "carnival" in
the subject, it will help me sort the emails more easily. I look
forward to seeing all your submissions! Oh, and please do tell anyone
you want, so they can submit, too.

You don't necessarily have to have a blog to participate. You can also
submit a Gather.com post, something you've posted on The Homeschool
Lounge (as long as it's public, not a Group post), even MySpace or
something. There was one Squidoo lens in the last carnival. As long as
it's about notebooking, and it can be publicly viewed without having
to register, I don't care if it's a blog or not.

I look forward to seeing all the great submissions!
