Back -to-school is always a fun time around our house especially the first day of school. My kids go back-to- school in just over a month and even though I am excited,I’m totally bummed at the same time. I don’t want summer to end…. ( most of the time anyways). The kids are all very excited, especially to see their friends and finally get a chance to open the box of school supplies and wear all those new clothes we have stashed away for those first few days back at school.
So, I decided to create these fun Back- to-School signs for them to hold up in their first day-of school pictures. You know the ones that everyone takes as their kids leave the house on the first day. I have seen so many creative ways to take first-days photos on instagram, from kids holding up chalkboard signs, magnet board, to full on photo shoots… I’ve always wanted to do something special with my own kids so I guess these signs will have to do! Simple and to the point. My kids are growing up way too quickly. I can’t believe that all of my children are in school. Even the littlest one started this year
And as a special gift to my readers, I have created a set of free Back-to-School printable. The set includes grades up to 6th, including preschool, pre-k and kindergarten. All you have to do is click the link below and print out the year that you need and snap a picture of your little one on their first day of school.
If you have a child at a school whose language is other than english, email me and I will create a set for the language of your choice.

Love the ideas, will be sharing it with friends! I wish my son was younger!
Adorable printables! We are getting ready to start school so these will come in handy!
These are great. Awesome printables.
Super cute and love the printable. Thank you very much
I am human kidless but back to school is coming soon. This is a good way to ease into it and be prepared.
I can’t believe it’s almost that time again? Seriously…where did the summer go?
These are so cute! I miss those first days when my kids were all excited to use their new school supplies.
Wow, I can’t believe it’s that time again. I’m so not ready this year. So not ready.
look how cute! Thanks so much – we will use these!
I love those 1st day of School Pictures 🙂 It’s always good to see how much children have grown each year
I love the simple chevron pattern of your printables! They are very cute and we might just use them! The first day of school is on 9/2 for us!
These are great printables. It sure seems like the summer has flown by.
Those are really cute! I love the Chevron pattern you used. I so need to print these off and have my kids old their grade and take a photo.
So cute! I will for sure be sending printables in my kiddos lunches. They were homeschooled the last year so wanting to go back in September – I will miss them and need to send little letters!
Thanks for offering such great printables! I can’t believe it is almost time for the kids to go back to school again.
I am so not ready for the school year start, especially since my younger son will be a senior in high school, but I bet these printables will be super helpful for everyone with younger kiddos!
Perfect timing for these. They are adorable. Wow, Summer flew by… I can’t believe it is August in just a few days!
I can’t believe school is due back already. Where did the summer go.
This is such a cool idea and will make a great memento . The first day of school is always fun.
