Take original photos of your child's first school day: we give you more than 19 ideas

The return to school is one of the most important moments for all families, because while for some it is the beginning of a new course in the educational life of their children, for others it is the time when their children begin to attend School for the first time.

Therefore, and because it is certainly a very special occasion for them and for you, we share more than 19 ideas to make original photos of the first day of your child's school.

With a blackboard

Let's start our list of ideas with one of the classic and most iconic elements related to school: a blackboard. You can make a small board, either in its classic version or a white board where you write that it is the first day of school.

And just like that… shes off to Kindergarten #firstdayofschool #firstdayofkindergarten

Mentioning the course they will attend

Continuing with the idea of ​​the board, in addition to specifying that it is your first day of school, you can write down the grade or course you will attend.

And now its his turn This year I have one child who had her last first day of elementary school and one child who had his last first day of preschool. I was introducing myself to the parents of the preschool class I teach when I realized this. I maaaay have cried in front of them… #backtoschool #firstdayofpreschool #backtotheICEC # 4yearsold #fouryearoldpreschool #bebrave #bekind #changetheworld #mountainmilestones #mountainmemories #imnotcryingyourecrying #childhood #childhoodunplugged #letthembelmuningmothermothering #mothermothermothermothermothermothering #mothermothermothermothering #mothermothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothermothering #mothermothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothermothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermothering #mothermotherhood motherhoodrising #momlife #thatsdarling #momtogs #nothingisordinary #liveauthentic #lovingmountainlife

1st Day of Kindergarten went great Siena was so excited She woke early on her own because she heard me get up and was as happy as a seal. Since she lost her tooth last night - She was also glad to discover that the tooth fairy came) It was a really exciting morning When she waved goodbye and went inside the school - I started to tear up a little bit, mainly because there was one boy crying and it pushed me over the edge Daddy was holding back tears too after giving her one last hug & kiss So happy and proud of our sweet girl. What an exciting milestone #nowbreathe #firstdayofkindergarten #sienalake

With some curious facts

In addition to showing the course they will start attending, you can also give it a fun touch by adding some curious fact about your son, like his age, his favorite color, the things he likes and what he wants to be when he grows up.

My first born. In school Where has the time gone Thanks to @kprestonphotography for the pics and writing out the signs #firstdayofpreschool #growingupfast

Dear Joey, You woke up this morning and said, New teacher I said yup. Then you flashed me a smile and said, Thank you. That was the start of the tears that began to flow all day for me while you went to preschool for the first time. You were so good today. SO good. No tears. Just a silent wave goodbye as you snacked on your morning jelly sandwich. I cried in the parking lot in your daddys arms and had to spend the entire day today processing what had happened. I got nothing done. Turns out youre stronger than I am, but I already knew that. Im gonna keep this short because I came a little early and currently sitting in our car of your school parking lot, waiting for school to be out. Im gonna take this moment to learn from you and be thankful for all things, including this tearful but happy day. #letterstojoeyiz

What a difference a year makes Last year I had to take this picture the day before because there were so many tears. This year he was telling me how the picture should be taken So happy for his new school year #firstdayofpreschool #ikeephappy #backtoschool # lifeofa4yearold #soproud #soexcited

With a frame

An alternative to the board is to use a frame or picture with decorative elements alluding to the first day of your child's school. This can even be a craft project that you can do together before going back to school.

We seeing your first day of school moments Wishing everyone a good school year #CrowdSigns

It was a great first day of kindergarten for these awesome WCC students #weingartenchildrenscenter #listeningandspokenlanguage #cochlearimplants #hearingaids #bahas #firstdayofkindergarten

With a printable

If you don't have a blackboard or a frame, there is another quick and easy alternative that you can use: a printable. There are some that you can download, or make one yourself with the help of an editing program like Canva.

With pennants

Another fun and easy element to do is a pennant. You can make one with cardboard and decorate it with markers, or design and print it, and then cut it out in the shape of a pennant.

It's amazing how much difference a year makes Claire headed off to Kindergarten today in her new school with many unfamiliar faces with SO much excitement and confidence She wasn't nervous at all… in fact, within a few minutes after getting to her classroom, she turns to me and asks "when are you leaving Mommy" Clearly, that was my cue to exit. Oh Claire… we're so proud of you and we know it's going to be a great year for you… #firstdayofkindergarten #backtoschool #ourlightwithin #motherhoodunfiltered #keepinitreal #honestmommin #thisismotherhood #honestmothering #ourcandidlife #dayslikethese #motherhoodunited #momswithcameras #momtogs #momtogs #momtogs #momtogs childhoodunplugged #raisingmytribe

this little girl is such a champion, her first day was a complete success #emmatakespreschool #firstdayofpreschool

With decorative elements

An option that will undoubtedly look great is to use some decorative elements that serve to create a unique background and special for the photo of the first day of school. From pencils to pennants, you can make them with materials such as cardboard, eva rubber (foami) or even felt.

First week of Pre-K East Texas Montessori Prep Academy When I first found out that her school required uniforms for the kids to wear I was like Oh no she has to wear the same thing every single day and every one is going to look the same and I thought itd be boring. When I discovered she could wear basically any color uniform and could vary between dresses, skirts, pants and shorts, patterns and fabrics, Sophia and I got so excited. She had fun picking out her outfits every day and we love the uniforms. Honestly, how cute are they Something about our babies in school uniforms gives me all the feels She also has the option to wear her school spirit shirt and jeans on Fridays and starting next week they can wear college shirts and jeans on Wednesdays This is going to be so much fun and I think its a great way for the kids to learn what college is from an early start and that the possibilities on college choice is endless My big girl did great and was excited to go to school all week and make new friends . With the exception of one minor hesitation to go our separate ways on Thursday, I think she did amazing for just starting School I cant wait to see what your future holds babygirl, Mama loves you… #preschool #prek #firstdayofschool #firstdayofpreschool #backtoschool # momlife #momblog #motherhoodrising #mothering #motherhoodunplugged #mommyblog #kindergarten #firstdayofkindergarten #kidsofinstagram #kidsofinsta #momsofinstagram

Ace had a great first day of pre-school Momma didnt do as well- he didnt even come running to me when I picked him up Hes practically grown, and hes not even 4 yet #firstdayofpreschool #mybigboy #momlife

Drawing with gises

A very funny and original option that you can choose if you have the space to do it, is draw with gises Something alluding to the first day of school. It will allow you to give more play to the photo and even try funny poses from another angle.

Was your favorite the first or last day of school… Fresh notebooks, pencils not yet sharpened, books unread, and the promise of routine has always made the first day of school my favorite… I remember weeping as a Jr and Sr that my school days were ending and normal life must now be lived… Im super excited to be diving back into the world of first read books with Keaton. Introducing him for the first time to all the titles I loved most makes my heart beat faster with anticipation

With you

Although usually the photographs of the first day of school are usually of children alone, another photo that you can take and save for the memory is one where the whole family appears celebrating the beginning of this new stage.

Today was a big day in our house Landon started his very first day of preschool EVER Mike and I were so proud to drop off our big boy - he was smiling and excited for his first day. He walked in with his teacher, no crying, no looking back (meanwhile I was crying on the inside). Pick-up was a different story… heres to everyday getting a little bit easier #firstdayofschool #preschool #twosclass #realisticexpectations #familylife #nothingdownaboutit #downsyndrome #upsyndrome #betterlucknextime #theluckyfew #bigboy #brothers #boymom #soccermom

Big things happening this week in the DeMaria home this was one of them. Little man reminds me to be brave, trusting, open, and optimistic. Of course theres always a little testing of the boundaries involved too. Forever learning from him, and especially this week as I watch him embark on something totally new and just own it. So honored and proud to me his Mama.

Saying goodbye to your pets

If at home they have pets, they can also participate in this special moment and accompany your child in one of the photographs of his first day of school.

Did you really go back to school if you didnt have a photo shoot

Today is not just another day. Its a new chance. A new beginning. you sweet girl, go get em.

Showing your enthusiasm

Many children are excited to start classes, either because they are eager to start this new stage or because they will see their friends again after summer vacations, so capture the excitement of the first day It is also a great idea.

First day of Kindergarten… I think shell do just fine # backtoschool #firstdayofkindergarten #rocknroll

My kids truly love school & for that I am lucky My son started last week (scroll to see photo) but it was my daughters first day of kindergarten today. Vin thought it would be a good idea if they were dressed alike just Incase Remi got lost. That way he could find her. #heartmelted #backtoschool #firstdayofschool # myfamilyrocks ... Ps. The softestcutest kids tie-dye v-neck t shirts are on sale for $ 1- $ 5 depending on size. frontdoor #steeldoor #whitebrick #paintedbrick #myhouse #frenchcountrystyle

Making faces and gestures

If your child likes to joke and play, you can opt for a photograph in which he does funny faces or gestures. This is also a good option for children who feel nervous at the beginning of the course, since playing gestures can help them relax a bit.

Excitement and smiles all the way around today Both boys marched right into their classrooms and never looked back Kellen did apply a quick dose of his dino oil roller when jumping out of the van which reminds him to be strong and courageous because thats how God created us to be. I shared that with another oily mama who reminded me how fortunate we are to have a school that will instill and reiterate those truths to him right along with his education Day one was definitely a success and I cant wait to see what this new season of # raisingarrows brings and how much these homegrown and healthy boys grow in their faith, knowledge and skills this year

Back to school

With a shirt that will accompany you every year

An idea that has been gaining popularity in recent years is to make a custom t-shirt for your child but in an adult size. The idea is to take a picture every start of the course with this shirt until you reach college or adulthood.

excited to watch this little one grow into her new shirt we had so much fun making it

Silly, strong, compassionate & full of joy. You are magic Im counting down the hours & minutes until you get off the bus thank goodness Im volunteering in the lunchroom today #firstdayofkindergarten #stillsobbing #shewasbornyesterday #denialatitsfinest

Leaving home

A very exciting and meaningful moment of the first day of school, especially when attending school for the first time, is when children leave home. A very funny and emotional idea is to take it from the inner perspective, in which your toys say goodbye to them or, turn around inside the house to say goodbye.

I cant stop Andy from growing up… but I wouldnt miss it for the world-Woody My baby is officially a Kindergartener He has grown into such a smart, generous, and most importantly a kind little boy and I know he is going to be such a bright light in his class this year. My heart hurts today but I know he is going to do amazing things Cheers to a great year Go Wildcats #kidsofinstagram #kindergarten # classof2032 #toystory #disneykid #gowildcats #firstdayofschool

I walk to school

Another nice moment to capture on your first day of school is the way to school, in which children are seen walking towards the beginning of a new stage in their lives and their education ...

The first day of school You didn't have any tears Cause I took them all #dadku I just left him painting with the teacher. Gave him a kissing hand. He gave me one too. He didn't cry. Yo hice. Tears of joy for how independent he's become. Tears of sorrow because I said goodbye to my baby for the last time. He's a preschooler now. He's started down the path to full independence. His world will only continue to grow beyond the one we share until it splits off into it's own orbit. It will be a thing to behold.

Well its official weve got 4 kids in school now. Such a bittersweet day to see Reed go off to his first full day of kindergarten. Hes so excited though but started to get on the bus and then turned around to hug me 1 last time and to tell me to have a good day. Hes such a sweet boy and Im a lucky mama #rwj #firstdayofkindergarten #sweetheart #mybaby

One of the toughest days as a mom… putting on that fake, happy, excited you get to go to kindergarten face, so your super anxious little guy cant see your own anxiousness. I did it I held back the tears, even through his, I cheered him up, helped him find a friend and kept myself together. He made it to class and hes going to love it Now I can cry a good cry and start accepting this new chapter. Change makes us grow #grahambam #firstdayofkindergarten

In front of his school

And at the end of the road, there is a very special moment: when they first arrive at their school, and they approach the doors to start a new school year.

Im on my way First Day of Elementary School

Knowing your school

A moment that we can not miss, is the first time he enters the facilities of his school and start touring and knowing her.

First day of Kindergarten Jude was SO excited & ready to go back to school. However, he was nervous about going to a new school with a new teacher, therapists etc. but was the most excited to make new friends. I am proud of his loving nature & ability to love everyone. He is going to ROCK it this year… #kindergarten #FirstDay #BackToSchool #firstdayofkindergarten #firstdayofschool #specialeducationclassroom #SpecialEducation

I wish I could hold your hand forever through the highs and the lows ups and downs sail your ship safely through the rough seas shield you from storms that come your way But there are times when I have to let go so that you can soar So that you can see all the things you can be all the things you can achieve And when you pull and when youre scared Ill be here One step behind One breath away Spread your wings, baby bird Go touch the sky But what if I fall, mama, you ask And thats when I say But what if youll fly. My tiny and mighty baby, my little Lily the Lioness, happy first day of preschool.

In his classroom

No doubt another place that can not be missed, and the most special of all, is the place where you will spend your entire course: the classroom. Capturing a picture of the first moment you know him is another nice way to remember your child's first day of school.

Zero Fs were given when she marched into class without mommy. #seeya #firstdayofpreschool #butterfly

FS1 DAY ONE. Dejavu, Wafaa & Fatima were once as little and running in these same halls. It seemed like yesterday. When I close my eyes. I felt like, I was once there… Just like that I woke up one morning and it was here. I walked into school with a child that is potty trained, in a uniform (yes, including a buttoned shirt) and a school bag. It was a long journey to get here. It wasnt easy. It was a journey where I learned to find my voice, believe in you beyond belief and help people understand that you will get there now that you can hear us better. A journey where I talked, emailed, voice noted, posted, collected reports, and spoke your name to Him in my prayers at night and to them out loud during the day. To be seen… You will be an amazing addition to Amandas class. It took her a few minutes to see you. I definitely know she sees you and everything beautiful about you. Like the way you kiss the animals, pretend bake cupcakes for everyone and color for mommy. I am glad I understand that at the end of the day what matters at these younger years is the teacher and this one is fabulous… Here we go Bismillah we start… #backtoschool #firstdayofschool #schoolboy #firstdayofkindergarten # backtoschool2019 # fs1 # 3yearsold #mybabyboy #cranleighabudhabi #cranleighschool #momlife #abudhabikids #kidsinabudhabi #abudhabimoms #abudhabibloggers #abudhabilife #saadiyat #uae
