Snapping a photo is a First Day of School tradition for most families. With a little creativity and some letter board quotes, you can make this year unique.
Have your child stand and hold the letter board in front of them, like you would with a paper first day of school sign. Or let them sit on the front porch, school steps, or on the playground with the sign beside them.
The first day of school is always busy and let’s be honest – putting together a letter board kind of takes a while. Go ahead and put together your letter board with whatever you want it to say the night before.
In fact, you can even snap that back to school photo ahead of time if you’re worried about running late or are taking a photo somewhere other than at home.
