Don't Just Be In The Moment - "Flip" Over It

Are you looking for a way to have more fun with your kids, learn something new and experience your moments to the fullest this summer? Check out this Flip video we made while painting at Grandma's house.


To make this video, we bought a Flip video camcorder which you can purchase at Costco, Amazon.com or other local stores for around $118-178.00. This small device fits into your pocket and you can take it with you everywhere and be ready to capture any moment!

This video was taken of my children painting with their Grandma. We took the Flip video with us on our long car ride to New York this summer and had so much fun recording our moments. It's so easy to use. My 10 year old daughter loads the videos and creates clips and videos to share with our family. This video camcorder fits into the USB port of your computer and within minutes downloads a video clip which you can share or store.

To have even more fun, we are playing a game with our cousins who live in Anchorage, Alaska and it is called "Top That Fun". To play the game all you need to do is take video clips that are funny and show the fun you are having. We send these clips to our cousins via email so they can watch the videos and have a good chuckle. The kids are learning a lot about how to take a video, what makes a good video, how to store the video and how to share it in a creative way. We use Smilebox to help us create interesting videos.

Get into your moments this summer in a bigger way! Send us your fun family video moment and we'll post it on our Families At Their Best blog!
