I always collected the Panini Hockey Stickers as a kid. I still have my book from 1986. I don't know what happened to the others. Last year while out one day we saw the 2016-17 book and I picked it up for my son Luke. I would buy packs of stickers and give him one every week after hockey if he did a good job listening to the coaches. He loved it. He loves matching the numbers and searching the book. He loves just flipping the pages and reading all the team names.
As you can see he didn't want to smile for a picture because he was busy looking up the stickers.
This year he really wanted to get the 20017-18 version of the book. Since I am his hockey coach he has to listen to me every week. So I just buy him packs now and then for fun. Hewas at his cousins house until today and she also has a book. So his aunt bought them both a few packs.
So this afternoon we have been sitting down putting the stickers into his album. I used to love collecting things as a kid. I love that I can pass this on to my son. Who knows, maybe he will be sticking silver soon!
