Ordering eymemories on the eyparent app

The eymemories section of the eyparent app is the place where you can order mementoes of your child's time at the nursery. These mementoes come in different forms, from a digital record of your child's timeline, to a physical book of your child's learning journey, to greeting cards and mugs. 
​
There is also a digital download, which provides a record of information on the system. My Early Years Story, creates a snapshot of your child's entire timeline and profile in the form of an offline parent portal, allowing you to access your child's observations, reports, daily diaries, medicine forms, and accident sheets even after they have left the nursery.

How to extract a .zip file
When you download a digital eymemories book, you'll receive it as a .zip file. A .zip file is simply an archival file format that allows files to be compressed so that they're smaller and easier to download. However, you won't be able to access the contents of a .zip file until it has been extracted. It's best to extract .zip files on a computer over a smartphone, since most computers should come with the capability to extract archived files built-in:
  1. Find the .zip file in your file explorer.
  2. Right click on the file to bring up a list of options.
  3. Click on Extract (it could also be Extract Here or Extract All).
  4. In the pop-up, choose the destination where you want the extracted files to be placed.
  5. Click Extract.
  6. Once the progress bar has filled up, you can access the decompressed file in the location you indicated in Step 4.
