The museum, the farm, the courthouse tour: log each trip with what your child learned and a photo. One click adds the hours to your attendance log and the trip to the portfolio. Print the whole log, a page for each trip, or a blank sheet your child fills in on the day.

Nowhere but this browser. They are made smaller so they fit, and they print with the trip.
