Good idea
I bought these for my Sunday School class and they enjoyed personalizing them.

Strange size
Have often ordered from Oriental Trading and seldom disappointed but this time got a surprise! I should have checked the customer reviews: while covers are 4x6, paper inside is WAY smaller and only lined on one side of the sheet. Two or three of the back covers looked like they were hole-punched on the outer rim and two yellow foam covers were stained ugh! We're using them as summer journals for grades 1 to 4>small paper makes it hard for 1st graders to write a sentence. First time I'm really not happy with OT product.

Fair for the price
The kids loved decorating these! They came with plenty of stickers. The notebook paper on the inside is like a small notepad. Not the full size of the cover. That was my only complaint...

I Really Thought O.T. Had Fixed These And Was Sorely Disappointed!
O.T. put these in their "super cute not quite right clearance sale." When these were put back into the "catalog" I thought (obviously wrongly) that the problems had been fixed.
The covers are nice and the stickers, while not flashy, are adequate. But the pages are AWFUL. Very thin cheap paper that tears just by turning the pages. They are in the books crooked and some backwards. And are nowhere NEAR the size of the covers.
VERY DISAPOINTED IN THESE! LOOKED LIKE A "LESS THAN PERFECT" ITEM AND NOT ONE FOR FULL PRICE!
But once I passed out some other foam stickers the children really seemed to enjoy them.

Cute idea but required prep
The kids loved these, but our volunteers had to pick off extra foam material that hadn't been totally cut. Kind of like grabing a slice of pizza that hasn't been cut completely This was a pain.

Flimsy Paper
I bought these for my Sunday School class. The paper was very flimsy and didn't hold up to erasing by my children.

disappointed
I was a little disappointed when the items arrived because it did not say in the description that it was an assortment of colors. I ordered it on the basis of the picture believing it was all one color. Had I known I may not have ordered it.
The kids fought over the colors.
:( But in the end not a bad product.

Be careful!
While the COVER is 4 x 6", paper inside is about 2.5 x 3.5 inches! We were making recipe books for our VBS, and thought they'd be 4 x 6 paper. We had to re-print all our pages, because 4 x 6 were WAY too big!

Great for a little extra something
We have these important yearly meetings for one the groups I belong to - I bought these and personalized the front with the member's name - so that each lady would have a place to make some notes and a nice little take home favor. It shows so clearly that each member is important and their notes and impressions valued.
The only problem I found was that one book half the pages where in backwards. So no matter which side was made the front - when you opened it the first half of the pages didn't have lines on the front - only on the back. I put my name on that one - the others were all fine.
