Do you make/buy signs for your LO's first days of school? We didn't do this last year for 3's preschool, but I'm wondering if I should. We do just take regular photos...

THey are cute and I know there are cheap printables online. I just used a text app and put the words right over the picture. I guess it depends if you want to include a lot of information or have tiny little LO holding something, all responsible- like!

I ordered one from Etsy for $10, I asked my husband if he could make one and he said that he could do it, but it would take him more than $10 worth of time.
I think spending $10 a year is nuts, though, so maybe for next year, I will teach myself how to do it in Adobe or something.

@looch: do something like this - its a chalkboard so you fill in the blanks and reuse it each year

I don't do signs but I like the idea of using an app to add words

Gah, that would have been perfect, but you know what, I can make that myself if I just leave myself enough time. My handwriting is decent if i am not rushing, so I was thinking I can do paint markers on a piece of black foamcore.

@jape14: was it one you fill in or what? I was just there but didn't see one, but also wasn't looking for it.
I could make one myself I'm sure. I want to do something but it might just be markers on paper.

@Foodnerd81: it's a little chalkboard one you fill in. it had rainbow colors on it if that helps you identify it! I'm sure you could find a printable on etsy too.

You can just write some text on the pictures that you've taken?
I bought a chalkboard, for a few bucks, that I write on every year.

There's a number of free printables on pinterest... That's what we've used for first/last day. The ones I've downloaded even have all the years in a zip file so you can use them each year and have consistency.

I got a reusable wood/chalkboard one from etsy.
I think the printable ones that you can frame are cute, too!

I bought a printable from etsy for $8 this year and framed it.
I don't plan on doing anything for DS until his first day of kinder.

It's tradition at DS's preschool totake first and last day pics in front of the school's road sign, so I just do that. I'll have to come up with something next year when he starts kindergarten.
