Making Memories with First Day of School Signs (+ Free Printable!)

0

Back-to-school season is upon us, which means all the sweet back-to-school pictures popping up on social media! We love seeing the creative ways local moms celebrate their kiddos starting a new school year. Everything from chalkboard signs to letter boards, posters to t-shirts, and more. These are special memories that you and your children will be able to look back on as they grow. 

To help get into the back-to-school spirit, we’ve created this free, downloadable printable that you can use to make your own first day of school memories! Simply print the PDF, fill in the blanks, and add your child’s photo. Or, you can upload this PNG file into your favorite editing app (there are plenty of free ones out there – we like Canva) to add your own text into the poster before printing. Voilà! Now you’re ready to take a first day of school photo of your child proudly holding his or her sign. (If you share on social media, please tag us @birminghammomcollective on Instagram and Facebook – we’d love to see it!)

Why Choose Printable Signs?

What we love about these printable signs is that they provide a snapshot of what your child is like right now. They are a fun alternative (or addition!) to chalkboard and letter board signs because not only are they easy to save (either in a baby book or electronically if you’re using an editing app), but you can also bind them all together into a First Day of School Memory Book to see how your child changes with each new school year!

How do you like to celebrate your child’s first day of school?

Kristina was BMC's Social Media Manager for just over a year beginning in 2022, and also managed the BMC Calendar and Event Guides. In August 2023, she began tutoring her oldest son's class in a Classical Conversations Homeschool Community, but is excited to be back with BMC as a contributing writer! Kristina was born and raised in Seattle, Washington and moved to the Birmingham area at the end of 2019. She and her husband, Landon, always dreamed of one day owning land and living out in the country (especially after having two active little boys!). In 2023, they were blessed with the opportunity to purchase some acreage in Central Alabama, and have slowly begun working on their future homestead. In the meantime, Kristina has worked on learning various homesteading skills like baking sourdough, keeping various ferments alive, seed starting, and more! She loves sharing what she's learned in hopes of inspiring other moms to try out new skills. You can follow along with her homesteading adventures on Instagram at @raisingarrowsfarmstead
