When do your kids go back to school??

My daughter goes back next week. She hasn’t been at school for and a half. Probably like your kids too! So I really want to document this! This is a post I created a few years ago and I still print out the signs every year! It’s such a fun and easy way to document the first day of school each year!

Back-to-School Signs for EVERY Grade!

And I made some fun “Hashtag” Instagram Printables that I am excited to use to document their first day of school!!  I made a bunch of them — from Preschool — all the way through Senior Year!

Back-to-School Signs for Littles Too!

And if you don’t have kids in school yet we are some hastags you can use for little ones — like “SMILE” and “FALL”.

Share Back-to-School Signs on Instagram

So print these up and take some FUN Fall photos of your kids. Share the pictures of your kids on Instagram with the hashtags from the signs!

Two Sizes of Each Printable – Landscape and Portrait!

And here are the printables! I’ve made them in two sizes, both in “landscape” orientation: 11 x 8.5 and 17 x 11 inches. Just download and print the pages you want to use!

Print Hashtag Signs in Large Scale!

You can print these signs on your printer but you can also print them in large scale! I sent mine to FedEx Office (Kinko’s) and had them printed on 17 x 11 cardstock.

It is Back to School time. Can you believe it?!

My kids are SO excited to start school and when I thought about the changes they have made over the last few years, I thought it was about time to design something up to show that change through the years! Today, I designed a start of the school year AND end of the school year printable interview so you can have a tangible memory of just how fast they grow!

Each one has 11 questions to answer as well as a space for a 4×6 photo of their first and last day each year. Won’t this be such a fun thing for them to look back and see!

I designed the Kindergarten-5th grade the same and the 6th-12th grades the same to reflect their ages. And guess what..you can have them all for free!

With school starting soon, I thought it would be fun to make a couple free printables that can inspire our kids and ourselves with a couple positive messages.  Choose HAPPY and be KIND today FREE Geometric printables.

I have created them in four different colors, two different sizes and two different sayings.

You can either cut out just the geometric shape and put it up on your fridge or on a locker with a magnet. Or cut it out in a square and frame it. I love the simple messages. It’s a great positive message for kids or ourselves to see every day. Frame it and give it as a gift too!! There are two different sizes that are perfect for an 8×10 frame or a 5×7 frame!

And here are the printables!

Here are the larger ones — in two colors. Right-click this link or the picture below and choose “save as” to download the PDF.

And here are the smaller ones — in four colors! Right-click this link or the picture below and choose “save as” to download the PDF.

As always, these are for personal use only.

Have a HAPPY day!!
