Facebook is giving parents a new way to keep pictures of their children in one place.
The new feature, called "Scrapbook," is designed as a simple way to organize photographs of newborns, toddlers and older children, as parents previously could only tag photos that their kids were in, according to ValueWalk.
Scrapbook works by logging into your Facebook account and going to the Family & Relationships section. Parents are the only ones who can make a scrapbook for their kids, and the only way for other partners can change the privacy settings or add photos to the scrapbook is if their profiles are linked through the site's relationship status section.
Photos tagged with the name of the kid will be placed in the scrapbook automatically, Engadget reported.
The social networking giant said the scrapbook "grows with your child," which means it will keep collecting photos as long as the user keeps providing them.
"Everyone who's on Facebook should control their own identity," said Dan Barak, project manager for Scrapbook, TechCrunch reported. Barak added that the feature is private to the users and that kids have the options to remove it or make it more public.
Barak also said Facebook will add a link to Scrapbook so parents can provide feedback on the feature, and that the company plans on adding a subscribe button that will give grandparents and other loved ones a notification whenever a kid's scrapbook gets another photo. Facebook also plans on giving teenagers their own Scrapbooks, Barak said.
Scrapbook is currently only available in the U.S. on the web, iOS and Android.
