When I was a kid, nobody made special first day of school meme’s with cute frames and chalkboards. If our parents were lucky, they snapped a quick shot of us with our huge backpack and lunch boxes before we walked out the front door or as we walked into our new classrooms. But now, with the brilliance of Pinterest, moms and dads everywhere are creating memorable photos of first and last days of school with ease. If you want to document your kids’ first day of school with style, then check out some of these adorable ideas!

2. Chalkboard Message

You usually see the typical “first day of preschool” on chalkboard photos, but this one is even better. Because let’s be honest, what’s going gone behind the camera is what it’s all about! While your child is happily smiling, you’re trying to hold back tears as another year is about to fly by.
