MOST of us have hundreds of photos on our phone that we will never print out.
But you can make more of your pictures with fun and affordable activities to do on your own or with kids.
Here are some ideas . . .
PLAY TIME: Set kids up on a rainy afternoon with a bunch of your favourite photos printed out.
You can get 50 6×4 prints for £7 using code PHOTO7 at bootsphoto.com.
Children will love looking through photos of themselves and can then have a blast creating a book of memories with an old notebook or scrapbook, plus some glue and scissors.

Encourage them to create captions for days out and name people in the pictures, as well as writing some notes about the photos.
They’ll then have a lovely keepsake that they will enjoy looking back through.
COLOUR THIS: You can use photos to create free customised colouring-in sheets for small children at crayola.com.
They will love colouring pictures of themselves, their favourite people or pets.
Just upload a picture then you’ll get options based on how much detail you want, or how strong you want lines. You can then print this out to give the kids.
GREETINGS: Use your photos to create extra-special birthday or other greeting cards.
You can use your own pictures on a range of card designs at moonpig.com and the site is currently offering two standard-sized cards for £5 with the code 2FOR5.
Or try funkypigeon.com, where you can create your own cards from £3.99. Get 20 per cent off your first order by using the code CUSTNEW20.
SIMPLE GIFTS: Printed photos in a frame is a fab and affordable gift to give anyone who is notoriously difficult to buy a present for.
Just pick your favourite snap of you both together, or choose a group picture of a memorable occasion.
You can get small frames from £1 at both Wilko and Dunelm.
