I have saved many of these tokens as well, but all over the house. My daughter actually fooled the toothfairy twice when she found her own teeth in a little crystal box. This is slightly off topic, but I read about a hospital where staff on the maternity ward make up a memory box for stillborn babies. It helps the parents through the grieving process - they can give themselves permission to be sad when well intentioned relatives and friends tell them they can have another baby.

I saved some effects from my child's early years... scattered in my closet, my chests and keepsake boxes... I'd be hardpressed to put them all together quickly if I ever had to. Nice idea.

It is a good idea though because it is like an odd time capsule but better. Really creative too... I never had a memory box for me but I do want to start creating a scrap book.
