Add in Radio Dramas to this list. My daughter greatly enjoyed various dramas - more interesting than books on tape in most cases, especially with good sound effects and voice acting. We especially like Adventures in Odyssey and a large selection of BBC Dramas.

I’ve been meaning to start something like this for a while now. The only thing I’ve been able to do consistently is January 1st of every year, I take out our huge old video camera and record each child reflecting on the past year, and setting goals for the coming year. It is so fun to see these clips back to back from the last five years. They grow up right before your eyes on one tape. We love it.
