[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 4524408, member: 5233"]So, I have two sons. Owen will be 6 soon and Oliver is 4. Both really love looking at my coins and constantly (especially Oliver) wants to look at “his coins” which are a silver proof set and an ASE from the year he was born. Oliver is REALLY into numbers and letters right now (threw a pretty big fit yesterday when he couldn’t see the number on the gas pump when we filled up the car...he was tired from a day of hiking) and Owen is learning to read. So both like letters and numbers. So, with all that in mind, I decided now was the time to begin to bring them into the coin collecting fold. I know they are bad for coins, but I did the exact same thing my dad did for me. I ordered them each a Whitman folder. Of course, he didn’t have Amazon Prime...I think he got mine at Barnes and Noble. But I ordered a pair of 1974-2013 Whitman Lincoln folders...one for each. I figure they will have fun identifying the dates and trying to fill the folder. It will be good for them for their reading and I think it will be fun. we will see how it goes when they get here.[/QUOTE]
