It is that time of year that parents have to plan what to do with their kids for the summer.  Before you start stressing over summer events have an end of the year celebration with your child’s class and teachers.  There are so many options in planning something like this.  You can keep it simple and plan a picnic at the park so the kids can play, have a pizza party, celebrate with an awards party or  have a “Welcome Summer” party outside by the pool.

Everyday Celebrating had a great post on School’s Out from Family Fun.

I stumbled upon this great post from Roots and Wings about End of the School Parties.  They have some great ideas for your kids.

Don’t forget to thank your teachers with a special thank you gift.  I love this idea from Tip Junkie.

Here is another idea from Family Fun for your teacher.

Cap off the school year with a day of fun and celebration!

There are so many graduation party themes that you can have.  Whether it’s high school, college, kindergarten or medical school, there are endless possiblities to plan a great celebration.

This table could be used in a formal setting in a fun way or it would be great for a kindergarten graduation party.  Just use black paper on the table and outline the guests name to have a chalkboard effect.

Here is a great idea for cupcake toppers.

I love this idea from Everyday Celebrating!  They are syringe jello shots.  These would be great to use for a medical graduation party!

Plum Party has some fun party supplies for graduation parties.

Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine.
