Demonstrated in PowerPoint 2019, Windows
​NOTE:  If you have a Mac version, the PhotoAlbum feature is not available but the other features in the three stages are.  You may want to watch the video on Templates for Photo Albums and Time Capsule.
You can create an instant Photo Album in PowerPoint.  Do you want to do a digital time capsule by taking pictures of things such as your house, favorite toys, things you have made, pets, friends and  family members during this pandemic?  

​It doesn't have to be a digital time capsule.  You can  use pictures you already have.  Maybe of a vacation or camping trip.  Or maybe instead, you want to have a Photo Album of your pet doing silly things and playing with you etc. 

There are three videos for each level as well as a PowerPoint practice file for you to download and learn from.  Let's get started!
