BACK TO SCHOOL PARTYAs summer vacation or winter break draws to a close, a great way to get kids ready for school again is to have a “Back to School Party”. Invite classmates from your class or from previous years and let them play school. Show your kids that school can be fun by having them do fun activities. They can role play being the classroom, art or music teacher or for outdoor activities assign someone to be the coach with whistle in hand. When greeting your guests, you, as the host can also dress the part by being the principal. Wear a name tag with your name and have name tags for the children. Have assigned "desks" at the table with each childs' name. Use a chalk board to write down the activities children will be participating in with the time dedicated to each one. Don't forget snack time and "pretend" nap time. Use memories of your own school days to think up great party fun.
DECORATIONS • Prepare your party room as if you were entering your child’s classroom. • Set up a teacher’s desk (food and drink table) and set up small desks for the students. • Place a blackboard on one wall and alphabet letters on another. • Fill small cups with pencils, crayons, markers, and colored pencils. • Place large paper placemats at each desk for each child to draw. • Hang a large map on one wall. • Have children personalize a school bag or pencil pouch.
