Today, Quinn and I are reviewing the Big Life Journal. This big life journal review comes to you honestly from our lounge. I wanted to work out if the BLJ was ACTUALLY really good for kids? I find that sometimes quinn can have some negative self talk, and wanted to find a journal that could potentially help him with that, AND be age appropriate for children. I wanted to be able to use something fun, like gratitude journaling (which we had tried in the past) to encourage growth mindset. 

What is the big life journal?
Big Life Journal  was initially a one-woman operation run by a mother who used the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter to sell growth mindset journals.
But over the course of the last few years, a single mother and a single diary have grown into a complete business with dozens of products and even a podcast dedicated to assisting children in cultivating a growth mentality.

Many of these products were developed particularly for use in educational settings, such as classrooms, and include activities that would be difficult to replicate at home with a smaller number of children. Therefore, it is important for parents who homeschool their children to bear this in mind before purchasing any of their printable items.

The Big Life Journal is a growth mindset journal for children that is intended for use by children older than seven years old. It is laid out in a format that is meant to be utilized once per week and is segmented into a total of 26 weeks.
Each week, a kid and his or her "Journal Buddy," who may be a parent, grandparent, sibling, or other caregiver, will read, write, and talk about a wide range of subjects together.
This is something that the youngster and whoever the child chooses to have as a Journal Buddy talk about together. The Big Life Journal is a resource that encourages youngsters to delve deeper by providing them with stories, drawings, poems, and games.
You probably already know this about myself, but I am a journal addict. As a result, over the years, I've experimented with a wide variety of journals, ranging from commercially available bestsellers to my own handiwork. The Big Life Journal is a unique journal that cannot be compared to any others. This diary is really original and creative, and I adore it for those qualities! The fact that you only use this notebook once a week ensures that it remains unique and enjoyable, freeing you from the burdensome requirements of a daily journal.

Who wrote the big life journal?
Alexandra Eidens created Big Life Journal because she was unable to locate any materials that were aimed toward children and their development mentality. Because she had gained so much from cultivating a growth mindset in her own life, she was determined to ensure that her child would also be able to reap the benefits of this mindset.
After coming up empty in her search, she made the decision to create for herself what she couldn't find elsewhere. The first version of the Big Life Journal was a physical book that was meant to be completed by one child with the assistance of a parent or other adult mentor on a weekly basis over a period of several months.
