Merit badge project: My daughter wanted to encourage her children to do their simple chores happily, so she asked if I would work on some merit badges for them.

She and her husband have the master binder with all of the badges, and the children each have a binder in which to collect their badges for jobs well done. The badges are kept in sheet protectors(the ones that can hold business cards)in the binders. I put tabs on the binder covers because little children love to open and close snaps! This is a very fun pastime and I have over 200 designs worked out. They are about 2X2 in size

That is an awesome idea for the little ones. They must be proud of what they have earned.
