"Because I Tried It" is a company that offers many personalized items. I had the opportunity to try out their Birthday Chronicle. I ordered it for my daughter who is turning 8 at the end of April. The service was fast, I had my chronicle emailed to me the day after I ordered it. The page is full of fun things that happened on the day my daughter was born. It includes top music hits, news of note and a fun little note seemingly from the President of the U.S. at the time of her birth. The chronicle I received is pictured in this post. This will be a fun token of the day of her birth. "Because I Tried It" offers many other Personalized Gifts for Anyone, Anytime. You can get the inside scoop on special and free offers by signing up for their newsletter, following them on facebook or twitter or google+.
So, how can you use it? If you are a parent, you can use it like I did. If you are a teacher, you can get it for the birthday of an author or other person in history that you highlight during the year. This would be a fun and different way to learn about that person. Now here's the great part....two of you will be able to get one of these Birthday Chronicles for free! You can enter below. The contest will end on Sunday, April 8 at 12:00am Eastern Time. (Note, due the request of the offering company, this contest is not open to bloggers.)
What a neat keepsake for someone's birthday! Thanks for sharing.
