Kid's drawings are sometimes just as interesting as their photos. They express child's dreams, interests and thought about current events and surrounding world. But what do we usually do with these drawings? We keep them for as long as we can, but then they get lost or damaged and eventually we throw them into trash.
But why not take a little time to scan them or take a photo with your phone? Well, there's usually no incentive to do this. Because these scans/photos will get lost in the endless black hole of our photos too. But with Memo app, you can bring order to this black hole of both photos and children's drawings.
Every kid's drawing is a memory (memo) that should have a date. After all, it's not just the image that's important, but also when it was drawn and what events were surrounding it. And if you already have photos of old drawings, it can be a very interesting quest for you to figure out when exactly they were created. You can add a title and description to each drawing - this will help you find it in interesting contexts later. For example, if your child has become a programmer, you might accidentally discover an old computer drawing they made at age four.
Another small but useful feature in Memo app is picture rotation - because drawings are usually horizontal but we photograph them vertically. You can fix this with one click.
You can create a separate tag in Memo app for these drawings or include them in your child's main tag so they blend seamlessly into the history. Don't scan every drawing, as this can clutter the history. Save only the most interesting, important drawings related to specific events or those your child was especially proud of - even if it was just a coloring page they hung on the wall.
