Lisa	interesting Posted 4/19/06 9:55 AM
Marcie	I really like the idea Posted 4/19/06 9:55 AM
mrsv1015	very cool idea! Posted 4/19/06 10:03 AM
MrsERod	like the idea... however i think it might get a little confusing with some entries.. for example... what if i type this whole paragraph continuing where the story left off, only to realize someone beat me to the thread and posted before i got to?? Posted 4/19/06 10:04 AM
LIFamilies	Here's the idea! It's to have fun (like an expanded word association) and as a community we can write books for our children. If they get to the point (not the intended idea of what this is about) where they can be sold it is our desire to have all the proceeds go to charity! Why should anyone profit from our children?

Michi	hmm im not sure if i even understand it Posted 4/19/06 10:06 AM
Moehick	Couldn't someone take the idea from the site and try to sell it as their own? What are the leagalities to it all? Posted 4/19/06 10:10 AM
MissJones	Posted by Moehick Couldn't someone take the idea from the site and try to sell it as their own? What are the leagalities to it all? Great question. But in general, I'm up for trying it! Posted 4/19/06 10:11 AM

People can do that with just about anything that is why you copyright published works. so will it be copyrighted as each person adds on or just the final result? Posted 4/19/06 10:14 AM
LIFamilies	Posted by dandr10199 ETA: Are you looking for "stories" about what our kids do? You can add anything you like to the story. As an example lets say we started a book called Animal Farm and the book is for toddlers. The book would be extremely simple. So a page would be dedicated to a specific animal and maybe something about it. Example: This is a chicken. She lays eggs that mommy cooks for breakfast. The chicken sounds like this.......... Get the idea? Posted 4/19/06 10:16 AM

BabyAvocado	I think it's a very cute idea. I think it could work. And if it really blows up...all the money will still go to charity? Posted 4/19/06 10:18 AM
LIFamilies	Posted by BabyAvocado I think it's a very cute idea. I think it could work. And if it really blows up...all the money will still go to charity? Exactly! A way for who ever wants to get involved to do so for the sake of educating our children without everything blowing up etc and if we ever decide to do anything with the finished product charity will benefit. We were thinking of donating to child cancer. A worthy cause I'm sure you'll agree! Posted 4/19/06 10:21 AM

Hey nothing is perfect. Just figured the more ideas the better! Posted 4/19/06 10:22 AM
Boobobunny	I love the idea....I'm always making up little stories about objects and animals..so that James can understand not just what the object or animal is...but what their purpose is. Posted 4/19/06 10:23 AM
MrsERod	Posted by LIFamilies We were thinking of donating to child cancer. A worthy cause I'm sure you'll agree! totally agree!! Posted 4/19/06 10:29 AM
paulandles912	I like this idea. It's a nice creative outlet and the end product is very worthwhile. Posted 4/19/06 10:40 AM
