A baby brag book is the perfect way to share pictures with families and friends. Grandparents will certainly want one. Parents should have one, too.

But what is a baby brag flip book or pocket book? Really, this is just a way to refer to any small photo album that is the right size to slip into a purse or coat pocket, and usually only has one or two pictures per page.

Digital photo baby books are perfect for making these. You can either use a small one that is printed on magazine quality paper, or use something that is sometimes called a flipbook, which is a bound set of pictures. Both will fit the ticket, and which one you choose will be based on personal tastes.

Types of Baby Brag Books

There are lots of small photo books that work well as baby books-- they're little enough to carry almost anywhere. The main two types of baby brag books are the flip book, and the small softcover baby photo book. Read on to learn a bit about both.

Baby Brag Flip Books

Flip books are generally the simplest and most inexpensive of your baby photo book options. They come with simple photo book layouts, custom covers (usually), and are generally spiral-bound.

The spiral binding is good on two fronts: it makes for a very cheap baby book, and it makes for a very "flippable" baby flip book. A good option if you just want something small and cheap to carry around.

Baby Flip Book Tip: If you are making a very small book like most of the flip books here, keep you pictures simple. They work great for close-ups but don't do well on larger group shots.

Baby Brag Pocket Books

A pocket baby brag book is generally a softcover custom digital photo book that differentiates itself from a standard photo book simply by its size. These mini baby photo books range from 2x3" to 5x7"
