Preschool and Kindergarten Graduation


 
Next Monday we will be celebrating our second little Kindergarten graduate.  Aside from the fact  I absolutely can't believe my "baby girl" is headed to first grade, I am in charge of the goodies for after the program. Therefore, I was inspired to do a little online searching to see what other clever teachers and mommas are doing to celebrate this early childhood milestone!
Under the Alphabet Tree put together a very special celebration for her class of Kindergarten grads.  You will love the many colorful certificates available for download in their post.
Candice and Ezra shared pictures from their preschool graduation ceremony.  The children have adorable caps made of paper and curling ribbon.  They also enjoyed some yummy looking cupcakes.

Hummingbird Educational Resources explain the activities they use for the end of the school year, including several sweet ideas for a graduation program.  I especially like the idea of the Dear Parent's letter  (found when you scroll down a bit in the post).  They also  changed the lyrics to some familiar nursery rhymes to make them thematic.
Simple Girl put together an adorable Kindergarten Graduation party for her Kinder daughter with cute decorations and favors.
