How to Use This at Your Reunion

Set the Scene

Open this page on a tablet or laptop at the reunion. Enter your family name, the year, and where you are gathered. This becomes your book cover.

Gather Around

Pass the device around or project it on a screen. Each person picks a category and answers the suggested prompt. Kids as young as six can type a sentence or two.

Watch It Grow

Every entry appears in the book preview on the right. Family members can read what others wrote and add their own memories in response.

Print and Keep

When the gathering winds down, hit Print or Save as PDF. Hand out copies as people leave, or mail them to family members who could not attend.

Making the Most of Your Memory Book

For the Quiet Ones

Not everyone wants to talk in a group. Let shy family members type their memories privately. The prompts are simple enough that a few sentences is plenty. Even "I remember the lemonade" counts.

Capture the Recipes

Ask the cooks to write down what they made. Include the little details: "Aunt Pat always adds extra cinnamon" or "Grandpa burns the edges on purpose." Those specifics are what make the recipe yours.

Kids Love This

Give a child the device and let them interview grandparents. Kids ask questions adults forget to ask. "What was your first job?" or "Did you have a pet?" often lead to the best stories.

Year Over Year

Do this at every reunion. Export the text each time and keep a folder. In ten years you will have a living record of how your family changes and grows.

Pair With Photos

Use the Photo Captions section to describe pictures you take during the event. Print the book and tape or glue the actual photos next to the captions for a scrapbook feel.

Audio and Video Too

This book captures words, but consider recording short video clips on a phone. Store them in a shared folder labeled with the reunion year. The book and the videos together tell the full story.

A Few Things to Know

This tool runs entirely in your browser. No data is sent to any server. If you close the tab without exporting or printing, your entries are lost. We recommend exporting a text backup before you print.

The PDF is created by your browser's print function. Results look best in Chrome or Edge. For the cleanest output, choose "Save as PDF" as your printer and enable background graphics in the print options.

This is version 1.0, last updated 2026. We plan to add photo uploads, multiple saved books, and a sharing link feature in future updates.
