I really love the idea of doing a time capsule for my future children. Obviously I will start the time capsule when they are born, and I think giving to them to open up on their 21 birthday would give plenty of time to fill it up with neat stuff.Be sure to label everything.

• A picture of them at every birthday holding a sign saying how old they are, what they want to be when they grow up, and their main role model.
• A newspaper from the day they were born.
• An issue of People from the month they were born.
• An issue of a fashion magazine from the month they were born.
• A pacifier
• What they wore home from the hospital
• A pair of mittens and booties
• Their bracelet from the hospital
• My bracelet from the hospital
• Something her mother/father wore at the hospital
• A car catalog
• A calender from the year they were born. Keeping track of how they are doing each week. Also record things like due date and day born.
• A grocery bill
• A gas bill
• One of their birth announcement cards
• One of their baby shower invitations
• Cards from other people
• Toddler drawings and other projects
• A hand mold.
• Hand prints at ages 1,3,5,8,10,and 16
• A letter from me to them
• A letter from their mother/father to them.
