Kids grow up fast but when you’re a busy parent, sometimes it’s easy to forget what your kids were like this time last year.

One woman has shared a lovely way to remember how much taller kids have got each year with a new tradition.

Chynna Quinn, from Brisbane, Australia, posted about using a length of ribbon to measure their height and then winding it up and placing it inside a glass bauble.

The bauble is finished off with a label, which says: ‘This ribbon is very special indeed because if you take it out and measure it, you will remember how little I was in 2018.’

She shared it on the Kmart Home & Hacks Facebook page but said that she had spotted the idea elsewhere.

It wasn’t something she had done yet but she hopes to do it in years to come.

Her post said: ‘Just seen this on another page and thought I’d share. It’s a very thoughtful ornament something I’ll be doing in years to come.

‘Imagine how cool it would look, accumulating many baubles, different colour ribbon over years!’

Other parents loved the idea of commemorating their child’s height each year.

One said: ‘This is awesome my daughter’s kindy did this last year and we measured her and she has actually grown 3 inches taller.’

Another added: ‘This is so sweet. I almost had a little cry.’

Some said they had used clear baubles filled with meaningful items like their child’s first Christmas bibs or Christmas socks.

What a sweet idea.
