memory books

Photo and memento collections

Memory books are scrapbooks or albums that preserve personal or family history through photographs, mementos, and written recollections.

They're often created for people with dementia to help maintain connection to their past, or assembled as keepsakes commemorating a life, relationship, or milestone: We made a memory book for Grandma's 90th birthday.
