Printing Tips For Chalkboard First Day Signs
For the best results, I’d recommend:
- Print on white cardstock for extra durability.
- Use your home printer or a local print shop.
- Print at 100% scale (do not “Fit to Page”).
- Slip the sign into a frame if you’d like to reuse it for siblings.
Make the Photos Extra Special
A few simple ideas:
- Take one smiling photo…and one silly one!
- Take the photo in front of your home.
- Snap one by the front door before leaving.
- Let your child hold their favorite backpack.
- Include their new lunchbox or school shoes.
Those candid smiles are usually the ones we treasure most.
