Hi Friends! It’s so hard to believe but we are already nearing the end of July and it will soon be time to start thinking about all things back to school. I know, I know…so sad! I am trying to hold on to every second of this summer as my little Sawyer will be heading off to Kindergarten in the fall (Cue all the tears…from me, not him! He couldn’t be more excited!).

You guys know me, I celebrate all. the. things. (Like his recent preschool graduation party!) That’s just me! haha! So to soften the blow that my sweet baby is growing up right before my eyes, I’ve decided to celebrate this milestone by creating some fun first (and last) day of school signs to kick the year off right! Today I’m sharing two different ideas each with free printable PDF files for you all.

Also, I’ve teamed up with an amazing group of ladies to get you even more prepared for the start of school in a Back to School Series blog hop. I’ve linked to each of their fabulous ideas at the bottom of this post. Be sure to check them all out!

Personalizing your Sign
To edit your first and last day of school printable signs follow these simple steps:

  1. First, download the free printable signs by filling out the form at the bottom of this post.
  2. You will need to download the free font Antonio to edit some of the fields. You can download the font (for free) here.
  3. The printables are PDF files that contain editable fields (for the names). You will need Adobe Reader to personalize the sign. If you don’t have Adobe Reader you can download it for free here.
  4. Open the PDFs in Adobe Reader. Click where it currently says “Sawyer’s,” at the top of the sign, and type the name you would like to include.
  5. Then, click where it currently says “Kindergarten,” and type the grade level you would like to include. Continue personalizing your sign by also customizing the date on the pencil, graduation year on the apple, as well as the “When I grow up…” and “My teacher’s name…” sections.
  6. Lastly, when you have finished personalizing your sign, click save and print.

I think these first and last day of school flags are so fun! They are also so simple to assemble. And after you make it one time, you can store it away and use it for all the “firsts” and “lasts” of many school years to come.

To create your first and last day of school flags. Just follow these steps:

You will need: my first and last day of school flag printables, a dowel rod, tissue paper tassels or ribbons to decorate, tape and scissors.

  1. First, download the free printable flags by filling out the form at the bottom of this post. The pennant flags are sized to be printed on 11×17 sized paper.
  2. Next, cut out the entire perimeter of the flag.
  3. Then, slide the tissue paper tassels onto the dowel rod.
  4. Lastly, simply wrap the flag around the dowel rod and tape or glue. Done! So cute! Perfect for first (and last) day of school photos!

    These are perfect, so in love with them! But I’m having trouble entering the year. It seems the font size is too big. Is there a way I can fix that?

      Hi Melissa,

      Thanks so much for your message! I’m so happy you like the printable! 🙂 What year are you trying to enter? I just tried a bunch of years on my end and they all seem to fit in the printable. If you can let me know the specific year you are trying to add I can check to make sure it fits. Also, did you download the fonts? I just wanted to double check because sometimes that effects the way the sizes appear too. Just let me know! I’m always happy to help!

      Thanks so much!

    I also had trouble making the editing work out. I downloaded the Antonio font and was able to make everything fit in the boxes while I was typing, but once I moved off of the editable box, the words/names moved up and didn’t appear correctly. I’m so disappointed. I loved your signs so much.

      Hi Shirley,

      Thanks so much for your message. I’m so sorry you are having trouble editing the signs. Are you opening the PDF file in Adobe Reader to make your edits? I know that can affect the editing process. I just took another look at the file and everything is fitting and the text is not moving up at all for me. Please let me know. I’m happy to help in any way that I can.

      Thanks so much!

        Thank you so much for your reply. I thought I had been opening the printable in Adobe, but it was just Apple Preview. Once I downloaded Adobe it worked great. Thanks again for the printable and the tech help!

    Hi Alison, Thank you so much for this simple yet beautiful sign! My daughter starts kindergarten tomorrow and I have been diving the web for days trying to find a cute sign for her first day, and I just did! I am so excited that she will get a nice first day picture with this sign! I already downloaded and personalized the sign, it was very easy to do. So again, Thank you very much 🙂 Blessings!

      Hi Jessica,
      Thanks so much for your message! I think the dowel I used was 3/8″ but really any size would work well.
      Thanks again! Take care!
