Quiet Books

I am currently working on a new quietbook for my little girl in church. I made her one before, but she gets tired of the same on every week so I decided to make another one to alternate. I have only been working for a little while, but so far I have 12 pages outlined, but far from finished. I want to know if there is a market for this sort of thing out there. Would people be willing to buy the quietbooks ready made, or even just the patterns. How much would be a reasonable price? Any thoughts/suggestions would be helpful!



Finished pages from the previous quietbook . . .

You are very ambitious to do quiet books. I was looking online to buy a ready made one---$28 for a good one!!!! ouch. I have 3 little ones who would like quiet books for church, that would mean about 90 bucks. No way. I am interested to see how yours turns out.

How much would you sell yours for and how many pages would you include? I have found that a nice quiet book sells for around 30 dollars with only 8 pages. Pieces are hard to keep track of. Any ideas?

I decided I'm not going to do this. It costs me about $20 a piece (10 pages total). I put way too much time a effort into each one to only make ten dollars on it.

As for keeping track of pieces, I never let Googie play with it by herself. I'm always sitting there playing with her. If you just let the kids have at them the pieces will definetly get lost!
