Back to School Traditions

Back to School is a big deal in our house. We have several Back to School Traditions I started years ago. I am going to share some fun ideas with you, so you can start your own traditions with your family.

 

Back to School Traditions

Back to School Shopping Trip

The first thing we do every year is a back to School shopping trip. We go to the mall and each one of my kids pick out an outfit to wear on the first day of school. Both my girls have similar taste in clothes. My girls love Gymboree  and I love it because I can dress my kids from head-to-toe. From clothes, shoes to matching accessories. It makes back to school shopping a breeze. Not to mentions Gymboree is giving you a chance to Win a Gift Card. More details below.

 

Back to School with Gymboree

My girls had a blast looking at Gymboree’s Back to School Line. I call Natalie my little sassy pants. She was super excited to find these Sparkle Sneakers. They totally fit her personality!

Claire is a fan of sparkle shoes too.

Both girls were so excited to pick out their very own outfits. Claire went with the Striped Star Dress, Denim Jacket and Sparkle Sneakers.

Back to School Outfit

Allowing kids to pick out their own outfit gives them a sense of independence. Natalie had the most fun picking out her outfit. This outfit totally fits her personality. Spunky, fun and full of life.

 

Back to School Outfit Gymboree

Gymboree has partnered with Brit + Co, millennial favorite and creative curator of all things cool, to inspire back-to-school shopping. On August 17, Brit + Co and Gymboree will co-host events at stores around the country, featuring back-to-school DIY hacks fun for the whole family. Visit gymboree.com/RSVP to sign up and enjoy a special shopping offer during the event.

Photo Shoot

Now it’s time for the Photo Shoot. Who doesn’t love to dress up in their new clothes and take pictures? I love doing photo shoots with the girls so they can really let their personalities shine.

Back to School Breakfast

I have been doing this tradition since my first child stared Kindergarten. It is something my kids talk about every year. They look forward to it. I try to get them excited for the first day of school, because I know how important School is.

I let each kids decide what they want for breakfast on the first day of School. In the past I have made homemade donuts, homemade pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon. I set up a fun table and make the morning about them.

You can find some of my Free Printables I used create this look here. I also have Free Printbales for Picture Day on the First Day of  School you can find here.

    My kids have always been homeschooled. So this will be their first year going to public school. I am excited to hear all the stories they will have. Each boy is excited and nervous about different things. I can’t wait to hear how they like it and how it all goes. My oldest went to school last year for the last quarter to get used to school before high school. He was most surprised by having to raise your hand every time to talk. Excited for new adventures!

    My children are all grown and my grandson is only 2 so I don’t have anyone starting school but I could use the gift card on my adorable grandson! Have to share the tradition we had when our boys were growing up — on the first day of school they got to pick a restaurant where we would go for dinner that evening. Back then eating out was a big deal and it was a great time to talk about their first day of school. Miss those days!

    To be honest, I’m not really looking forward to school starting! We’ve had such a fun summer and I think I may have a really hard time with my son going back. However, I do LOVE fall so I’m looking forward to enjoying everything about the season!

    We’ve had a rough summer, which began the end of last school year. Our children have had a great summer, went on our annual family vacation, and to visit their family that lives out of state. With our events and changes that have. And still are occurring, their summer wasn’t “as planned” tho. AND, they’re starting a new school. We’re ready to see the new adventures and watch our children continue to grow and learn. Oh, and most importantly, have a routine back!!!!!
