30+ Free Printables for First Day of School Photos

August 9, 2013 By Deb Chitwood 23 Comments

Next article: Montessori-Inspired Physical Fitness for Preschoolers

Today I want to share links to something I wish would have been available when my kids were school-aged … free printables for the first-day-of-school photos. So much fun! I love that the printables work well for back to school and back to homeschool (or NOT back to school, as many homeschoolers say).

30+ Free Printables for First Day of School Photos

Celebrations were an important part of my family’s homeschooling … all the way through homeschool high school. A fun celebration was at the beginning of each homeschool year.

Note: If you’d like to use calendar observances as celebrations to add life to your homeschool or family schedules, I have a post with August Themed Activities for Kids … part of my Monthly Themed Activities series.

You can read about our yearly tradition here: Start the Year with a Celebration. Photos were always an essential part of our back-to-homeschool celebrations.
