How do you keep newspaper cutouts, swimming certificates e.tc?

Ds1 has just started to gather some of these type of things so I'd like to start some means of keeping them before the pile grows out of hand. How do you store them ie glue, clear plastic wallets, laminate etc I don't want to shove them in a folder and find them all ruined in a few years time. Just interested to know what you do.

Laminate them
But going to take up scrapbooking as well - for all the other bits n pieces

Years ago I got the boys each one of those "professional display folders" from WHSmith (such that a sales rep might use). The good quality smart ones are quite pricey (£20 I think), but worth every penny IMO.

The boys adore these files, and frequently look through them and remember past glories and achievements
They are one of the best things I've bought for them.

DS1's was very recently full, and I suggested to him he might weed out some of the less important ones. ("Ds1 is working towards Duckling 1 swimming award" ...! Bless!) But he was having none of it, and wanted to keep them all. So I got him a new display folder for Christmas.

Ah roisin, beat me to it

this kind of thing - my kids also adore theirs .

thanks that looks like the type of thing I need.
