Can you believe it? It’s back-to-school time already! The first day of school is always a bit exciting (and even nerve-wracking!), which is why Cubby wants to help you celebrate and commemorate it with a free printable PDF package you can download right here. We first shared this downloadable PDF last spring, but if you missed it then, you can still grab it now!

In addition to first and last-day-of-school signs for preschool through sixth grade, our PDF includes a “A First Day of School Letter to Me!” printable and a fill-in-the-blank “My School Year” report to hold on to for the end of the year. Capture your kid’s feelings, thoughts, nerves, and excitement for whatever school adventure is about to begin!

If you’d like, take a photo and then tag us on Instagram @cubbyathome. We’d love to see!

Enjoy the new year!
