I am completely OBSESSED with this journal!! We all set unrealistic expectations for how we want to collect memories of our children’s milestones.
This journal is perfect for collecting memories without going overboard! It’s always doable which means I actually use it and all of my children will get one (instead of giving up after putting in effort for one or two)!
My favorite thing about the journal is that it gives you prompts so you don’t have to try and remember every little thing. But you can also add your own things (in each section I always write a short letter to my kids). I love it!!

I had been debating whether to get the childhood history journal for a while. I am so glad I did! I love that the prompts are so thoughtful and they ask questions specifically for each developmental stage. can't wait to keep writing.

I purchased this for a friend's baby shower. This is the second Promptly journal I have purchased as a gift and I think they are just lovely! Awesome, quality products. Super impressed. I'll be a customer for life!
Tammi R.
I absolutely love this journal! It's perfect for jotting down a few thoughts when you have some time to spare.
Erin B.
I love the journals and the format! My only concern is that now that I’ve placed the first 2 years of photos in, the journal won’t close flat. Such a wonderful way to record memories though!
Karolina N.
Honestly love it! honestly love it! arrived to UK just around week and from the first page made me so emotional. Beautiful packaging, high quality from the front cover through beautiful hot stamping on the label, embossing on next page. Definietely for stationary lovers. Am so glad to put my memories in to this timeless book and can come back after years. Love love love
Ashley B.
Love this all in one journal!!!
Peyton B.
I love the layout, spots for more than just words like pictures and footprints, as well as that it’s 0-18years all in one book.
Taylor F.
Love this! Such a great thing for your kids to cherish one day!
Tiffany B.
I love the look of it. I have not begun to write in it yet but look forward to it.

Really like my childhood history journal! As someone who enjoys journaling but isn't very good at keeping up with it, this is perfect. The writing prompts make it easy to record my thoughts, and I'm glad there are also blank pages for additional notes. The paper is thick, higher quality than an average journal. (Tip: When pasting in photos, use a glue stick or double sided tape, not tacky glue. I used tacky glue and the moisture bled through to other pages.) The gray linen cover design looks very classy and timeless! Initially I ordered a navy design with orange flecks, which I didn't like the look of in person. (Tip for choosing your cover: Since the Promptly website only includes the covers photographed with the paper sleeves, which get discarded, I reccomend looking at Amazon photo reviews.)

Absolutely love this journal. It’s way more in-depth than a typical baby book and I like the ongoing component to it. I am very sentimental and love keepsakes, yet am terrible at journaling, so the prompts are perfect. Just enough extra space for off-script stories and photos/mementos. Prompts include all the details that will be nice to look back on in the future without being too much work for those who don’t want to commit to hours of journaling. Being in Canada I do wish there was a local retailer of this so it would be easier for me to give as gifts!
Megan C.
Love this journal! It is simplistic and beautiful and the prompts make it easy to write. Have already ordered more!
Lindsay H.
I absolutely love this book! It asks great questions that usually result in writing down more stories! It is a quality journal (I'm obsessed with paper and books, so I have high standards). The gel pen I use doesn't smear when writing on the paper, but I use a notebook sheet in between the pages I write just in case. I highly recommend this book to mothers or fathers who want to keep a good record of their child's life. It's slightly geared toward the woman's perspective at times, but only a question or two. It's amazing!

The journal was a baby gift I gave to my daughter in law. She loves it! It will help remember all the experiences they will be wanting to remember!
Kristen
First of all, I ordered on a Wed and it came that Saturday. So you could say it arrived.. Promptly ;) no really, amazing. And the quality is good. The paper feels good and the prompts are cute. There's lots of space in the back to write letters to babe. My daughter is three when I found this so I'll be back filling in what I remember and starting from there but I'm so excited! I also bought a second one for a future baby :) thanks promptly journals!!
Penelope M.
Loved my baby journal, the prompts are thoughtful and not excessive. I looked for a long time for something to record my son's life and I'm excited I found this. I will be gifting these to friends with babies from here on out.
Brilee P.
I’ve been searching for a baby book that covers more than the first few years, so I was over the moon discovering Promptly Journals.
Megan S.
Beautiful, well crafted journal. Love how easy/quick it is to write in it. One day our son will love this journal!
Marlene
Good product makes up for poor customer service.

I love how easy the prompts are! I bought one for each of my children and my current pregnancy and I know it’s going to bring me so much joy in years to come when I want to remember the little things. I just wish there were more pages for photos though!
Cara
The Childhood History journals are just as beautiful as I imagined. I am so excited to have these for my girls, and what a treasure for them to have one day when they are adults. Amazing product!
Abby
Promptly Journals are the best and easiest ways to keep record of all the wonderful memories!
Zoey Nickel
I always knew I wanted to keep a journal for my babies, but I never knew exactly where to start or how to go about it. This Journal makes it so easy to record each individual stage in my kids lives. I am so in love with it and I know it will be such a treasure in our family!
Megan
Such an amazing journal to have for my kiddos. I am very thankful for these. I am terrible at journaling, but this makes it so easy and creative. My favorite, “what does your child obsess over?”
Also, this makes the BEST baby shower/ bringing home baby gift! ❤️
Jamie
I came across Promptly Journals on Instagram and am SO glad I did. I purchased two childhood journals, one for my 15th month old and one for my baby due in May. The journals are easy to follow and fill in. I’m thrilled to have them to give to my boys when they are adults and continue to revisit it and remember all the wonderful memories. My next purchase is the love journal and catch up on 10 years of marriage! Thanks Promptly Journals!
Allison Gambol
I am loving the Childhood History Journal that was gifted to me by my sister after telling her my husband and I are pregnant with our first!
I'm debating to get the Love Story journal for my husband and I OR get another Childhood History journal because we definitely plan on having more kids (:
The prompts on all the pages are well put together and thought out. I'm loving the content that I'm already filling out.
Sydney Poole
I absolutely adore these journals. They are beautiful, unique and priceless!
Kara Sperling
Love these journals! They are beautiful and easy to write in. I'm very happy with my purchase
Brittney
First, I want to say that I love these books! It has been so easy to document all of the firsts with my son. The prompts are age appropriate and help me stay on top of these wonderful records! However, I am disappointed in the shipping. After spending over $100+ dollars in an order, still I was charged for this. It’s just a bit disappointing in an age where everything is ordered online.
Krysta
I’m so excited to use these journals. They are a simple and not intimidating way to keep track of crucial memories. Instead of having tons of daunting pages where I’d likely miss out and leave some empty, these feel genuinely fun and easy to record memories of each stage. Thanks for making this part of our complicated lives simpler! Beautiful site too, would love to see a videos tab or something to send people directly to!
Nicole Salter
These are more than I even imagined! The Love Story editions are HUGE and the Childhood Stories are beautiful. Can't wait to fill in the easy prompts as I marry this year. I am also a wedding photographer myself and can't wait to share these keepsakes with my clients!!
Sarah N
Love this journal! I love how it goes through 18 years of age. Each age hits all of the important things so you can remember all the details! I'll be buying these as baby shower gifts for friends and family too! :)
Stephanie
I looked for a long time when I was pregnant for the perfect baby book. I didn’t hear about Promptly Journals until my second was 4 months, but I ordered one for him and one for my 2yo as well! I was trying to figure out how to best document her toddler years and was struggling to find something, until Promptly! Now ordering the Love Journal to document the memories that don’t involve the kids!
Nichole Ware
I love everything about the promptly journals!! They really have all the important details that you want to remember!
tdiamond111
I have the childhood history journal and am obsessed with it! The prompts are perfect and simple for capturing my thoughts about my sweet little angels. And not to mention it’s beautiful!
Jen
I love this journal! It’s hard to find a journal that extends so long into the child’s life and doesn’t have a million prompts or pages. I love the simplicity of the prompts and length given for responses and how they’re geared towards the child’s ago. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because it’s easy to get marks on the cover. It’s a beautiful cover (I have yellow and grey) but I wish they were a different material to better stand the test of time
Jacqueline Belnap
I love our baby journal. The prompts they give are so spot on for the time your child is in and they have extra paper to just write about that time! I love that is starts in pregnancy and works up to the teenage years. I’m excited to get the love story as well so that we have another journal for our family history!
Aimee Hugo
These are high quality, beautiful journals. I love looking back on my entries and reliving when my 2 year old was an infant. I didn’t realize how much I had forgotten. I’m getting one for all my babies!
Pei Wen
love how this journal works. questions listed are just exactly what we would love to pen down for our baby, those details of pregnancy and him. the gold wordings on the cover stands out perfectly against the navy coloured cover as well. good quality feel of the journal.
Meg Dubina
I am in love with my promptly childhood memories journal. It is beautifully made and each page has the perfect prompts to answer to remember each phase of childhood.
Shannon Cunningham
I had delayed finding a "baby book" or journal simply because I couldn't find anything that fit me or my preferred aesthetic, until I found Promptly. The journal is just perfect - the design, size, language - all of it. It's such a beautiful product at a great price point - perfect for displaying on our coffee table or bookshelves, which means it will be opened and revisited often. I look forward to capturing all of our first born's memories in this lovely journal!
Michelle Hopkins
Loved giving this as a gift for a new mom!
Margarette
These journals are sooo cute and lovely! What a great way to keep memories alive.
Keely
My mother always kept little momentos and notes of our childhood growing up, and I'm so glad that Promptly provides a way for us to do that with our littles as well! We love the simple, well-designed layouts and the beautiful binding that will last for years to come!
Summer Lee
I just ordered two journals and I cannot wait to start filling them out. I plan on ordering more for my children. You site is easy to navigate through and has a calm feel to it.
Chelsea Peterson
I’ve never been so excited to journal before. The childhood journals make it easy for me to jot down a few things every day and not feel overwhelmed. It’s exciting to me to think that I can record my child’s whole entire upbringing from my perspective from newborn to 18.
Carley Jensen
I love the childhood history journals so amuch! I have one for each of my children and it is now my go to baby gift!:) so glad I found these beautiful journals to keep my kids memories in.
Stephanie
I was so thrilled to discover promptly journals but was even more blown away by their prompt and kind service. The quality of the product is top notch and the woman I bought the journal for is over the moon! Thank you Promptly for the quality product, the amazing service and the timely deliver. You guys are amazing!
Heidi Tedrick
I love everything about this journal, just wish I had found it sooner!! My son is about to turn one and it's actually really easy to back track and fill in things that I never documented before. The prompts help so much! I'm so glad I'll have a keepsake for him.
hilary
Such a sweet way to honor your child. I love recounting the time and how each year there are new relevant questions.
cate852
I love the product and your site is very easy to use. I have bought the journals as gifts for others as they are a favorite of mine now. The prompts make it easy to use and help trigger memories about my little ones that I don't want to forget! I also bought the love story journal. I really love looking back and knowing we have something to continue our story.
hilary
I got my journal on Black Friday and have started filling it out. I love how each stage you are in has questions that only apply to that stage. It makes you think of/remember sweet details you wouldn’t have thought of!
Aubree Bosen
I am obsessed with these journals! I buy them for every gift I can. I’ve personally bought all three (childhood, adoption, and love story) and it has made my journaling so much easier. Im such a slacker and these help me make up for my lack of journaling in the past. The questions are all thought out and applicable. It’s easy and fun. I have nothing negative to say.
