I made all of this for a friends new to the world offspring... I took an older atlas I had and cut it in squares to make the pinwheels. I took a lot of note cards and wrote each day of the year down so each year you write down a memory. Just like a sentence for the day. I went to the farmer's market and got three scrabble boards for a dollar each and I've been making things with them and my hot glue gun. :)
