Childhood Memory Book
The early years become your story.
The first sentence, the first day of school, the word she got wrong that your family still uses. Meminto asks you about it – one question at a time – and turns it into a book your child will one day hold themselves.
One-time payment · no subscriptionFor children from about six. No upper limit.

Why now
You have the photos. Not the stories behind them.
There are thousands of pictures on your phone – and in ten years, no one will remember why this one mattered.
What you get
A Childhood Memory Book is not a baby album
A baby album is filled in while everything is happening – and often stops halfway through. A Childhood Memory Book is created in retrospect: Meminto asks about the early years, and you answer by voice or in writing whenever you have time. Many families keep writing into their child’s teenage years. Dad tells it differently from Mum; a grandparent remembers things you have long forgotten. In the end, you have a printed book to place in your child’s hands later.
The most common question
When is a Childhood Memory Book worth starting?
From about six – when enough childhood lies behind you to tell its stories. Starting school is a classic occasion. Many families keep writing into their child’s teenage years; there is no upper age limit.

“I highly recommend the childhood book . I made it for my son so he knows how great our family time used to be. He already loves it and enjoys looking at it over and over again.
“Elise’s grandmother Carole decided to immortalize the first years of Elise’s life in a Meminto Childhood book. An almost 500-page thick book has been created, and Elise was full of joy!
“With Meminto Stories I found a way to keep all my flashbacks of the first adventure with our child in a book. Now we can cherish them forever.
“So much more than just a photo book. Through the questions, beautiful old memories come up again. Even videos could be loaded into the book. Emotions like when it all happened!
“Thanks to Meminto, I finally had the opportunity to create a great memory book for my children without spending a lot of time ☺️
That little voice from back then
Hear the voice again that grew up far too fast.
Photos keep what your child looked like. They keep nothing of how your child sounded: the lisp, the made-up word for strawberry, the laugh from the paddling pool. Next to any story in the book sits a QR code—hold your phone against it and the voice message or the short video plays again. Twenty years from now, this is the part you will open most.

Everything you want to know about the Childhood Memory Book
Clear answers about timing, telling the story together and printing.
Our child is only three – is that too early?
Usually, yes. From about six, enough childhood lies behind you to make the retrospective worthwhile.
Our child is already fourteen – is it too late?
No. Many families begin for a tenth or eighteenth birthday. There is no upper age limit.
Can our child contribute?
Yes. Older children can answer their own questions. You decide together which stories belong in the book.
Do we have to answer every question?
No. Skip, change or replace any question with one of your own.
How many photos can we use?
You can add unlimited photos, giving every picture a place beside the story it belongs to.
Can we make two books for two children?
Yes. Each child gets a separate Childhood Memory Book with their own stories and pictures.
How long does printing take?
Around 10–12 days after your approval.
