I put them in with her other papers and deposited in the local Archives.

She didnt throw stuff away, off and on, there is 50 years of her lifes worth of school and professional material there.

Some future scholar is going be thrilled. (Certainly the Archive is thrilled).

I have been known to buy the odd one as an adult and try and fill it in. I have one on the night sky, which is fun to fill in as you see things. Reminds me what to look for and keeps me sharp.
I doubt I'll bother with sending it off for a certificate tho.
I had one on butterflies as a little kid, it went everywhere with me ..just in case I saw a new butterfly or catapillar.

Yes, they are good for that.

I have the modern Michelin one on Scottish Wildlife.
