Cheerleading Scrapbook Ideas

Cheerleading is one of the most exciting sports for young girls, which is why most mothers want to record the memories in a cheerleading scrapbook. While it's fun and exciting to watch your young girl flipping through the air, standing on hands in the air, or dancing through a tough competition, it can be challenging to capture all of the excitement and spirit that is felt while at a cheerleading event or game.

The following tips will give you some ideas on how to organize your cheerleading scrapbook so that you capture all of the thrill and joy that come from this period of your young cheerleader's life. These ideas will also help you remember the hard work, sweat, and tears that the entire squad put into an exciting, successful season.

Ideas for Your Cheer Scrapbooks

One way to create a cheerleading scrapbook is to design one book exclusively for memories of this cheer season. If you have a dedicated cheerleader you could end up with a series of scrapbooks documenting her progress and adventures over the years. This is something that she will treasure forever, whether she moves on to cheer in college or professionally or not.

You will want to create pages that include your cheerleader with the entire squad as well as pages with her personal moments throughout the season.

If you design your scrapbooks by the year or month with mixed themes falling into place in chronological order, you will be creating individual cheerleading scrapbook pages rather than one continuous book that include only cheerleading.

If your child does competitive cheerleading, this can be more difficult to control since there will be so many exciting events to document from practices, fundraising events, and the big competition days.

You will need to tightly focus your pages and condense more pictures per page in this case, unless you want your multi-themed scrapbook to resemble a cheerleading-only scrapbook.

Of course, you are going to naturally focus in on the team colors for your cheerleader's squad, but don't limit yourself just to those colors. If you are making single cheerleading scrapbook pages to go into a larger, mixed theme scrapbook you may stick with these colors more exclusively, but if you are creating an entire scrapbook dedicated entirely to this cheerleading season, mix it up and play around for variety.

For instance, you can choose different accent colors for some pages to keep things from becoming too boring. You can also us colors that are in a different shades than what is actually used for your team colors.

Once cute idea is to create your cheerleading scrapbook as if it is a People magazine with your cheerleading squad as the celebrities. You will actually interview different cheerleaders on the squad and create pages around their responses. You can allow them to write out their own thoughts and experiences to add into journal boxes, or you can interview them yourself and put their words in quotes like a real interview.

The interview theme can run throughout the entire cheerleading scrapbook and feature different squad members on different events. There can also be group pages with smaller quotes and pictures from all squad members.

This is a great idea for cheer coaches and moms!
