Preschool Graduation Ideas - Fun and Meaningful Things to Do

Are you seeking inspiration for preschool graduation ideas?

Graduating from preschool is a big step in a young child's life. This marks the end of 'baby school' and on to 'big kid's' school. The occasion deserves to be recognized as a special event.

Many teachers and parents like to get together to plan a day that is fun but simple for these little guys and gals. Short attention spans at this age don't allow for much more than an hour or so to celebrate. But you can still make the occasion special with a little thought. This article will give you some wonderful preschool graduation ideas to incorporate into your preschooler's graduation.

Preschool Graduation Ideas

  • Caps and Gowns: Big kids aren't the only ones who can wear caps and gowns for their graduation. Make your preschooler's grad a little more special by having them create and make their own caps. This is easily accomplished with a little tape, staples, and assorted colors of construction paper. Have an assortment of crayons and markers so the kids can decorate their caps. You might even want to add glitter and other fun embellishments. This activity should be started well in advance of the actual graduation day, allowing plenty of time for all of the trimmings to dry properly. Gowns can also be made out of sheets and belts. Kids love nothing better than to be creative.

  • Personalized Diplomas: Make an actual ceremony by calling each child up to the front of the class and presenting them with a 'diploma' with their name on it.

  • Speeches: Once presented with their diploma, each child could recite a favorite poem, or tell about what they would like to be when they grow up. This is a meaningful and potentially hilarious preschool graduation idea.

  • Grad Photos: If you have a few creative parents, make a background for a 'grad' photo, such as a doorway to Harvard or some other established institution of learning.

  • Roses: Have each preschooler carry a single rose up when they collect their 'diploma'. They can present this rose to the teacher in exchange for the 'diploma'. The teacher will be thrilled with her bouquet at the end of the ceremony.

  • T-Shirts: A really fun preschool graduation idea is to make graduation t-shirts for each child. You can choose to tie dye, something that all the kids will enjoy. Using permanent markers, each child can sign the shirts for a lovely memento. Don't forget to make one for the teacher as well.

  • Recital: Lots of preschools like to put on some sort of recital for their graduation day. It can be a music recital, or even a small play that emphasizes how the kids have grown and learned throughout the year. Or, how about a graduation song?

    It is best, no matter what you decide to do for your preschool graduation, to give yourself lots of time to plan. If there is to be a performance, the kids will want to be confidant that they will give the best performance they can.

    Preschool graduations can be a fun and memorable event. Take some time to think of what preschool graduation ideas will be unique for your class and have fun planning.
