Our boys are 'gamers'. They love video games, they love to talk about video games, and they love reading about video games. This means that we have a lot of gaming magazines laying around the house. I don't like clutter (though my house seems like it is getting more so with each passing month). When the cringes started coming out at the mention of culling the magazine stash Chris had a great idea. He thought the boys might be more willing to part with the magazines if they could hold on to some of the memories that came from them. He had the boys cut out their favourite photos of games and meaningful gaming 'stuff' from the magazines to create a collage they could hang in their room. He suggested this project months back. Enthusiastic cutting ensued and then it sat and sat and sat in my living room just collecting dust. Today I 'encouraged' them to finish up their project and here is their fantastic result.
