The first day of school deserves a little celebration! 📚✏️ You don't need to plan an elaborate party to make the morning feel special. A fun breakfast, colorful school-themed tableware and a few decorations can turn an ordinary school morning into a memory.
Here are some easy first day of school breakfast ideas you can put together without making an already busy morning more stressful.
Create a Back-to-School Breakfast Table
Start with the table. A few colorful decorations can completely change the look without requiring a complicated setup.
Use school-themed plates, colorful napkins and a simple banner or pennant flag behind the table. Add pencils, crayons, books or apples you already have around the house as inexpensive decorations.
Make Breakfast Fun With Pencil Shaped Plates ✏️
Pencil shaped plates are an easy way to make breakfast feel like a celebration before the kids even leave for school.
Serve pancakes, waffles, muffins, fruit, donuts or other breakfast favorites on the colorful pencil-shaped plates. They also work wonderfully for classroom celebrations, teacher events and back-to-school parties later in the season.

Add a School Bus to the Table 🚌
Nothing says "time for school" quite like the school bus!
School bus shaped plates are another playful option for a first-day breakfast, especially for younger children heading into preschool, kindergarten or elementary school.
You can use all school bus plates or mix them with pencil plates to create a colorful school-themed table.

Keep the Breakfast Easy
The decorations can make a simple breakfast feel special, so there's no need to prepare an elaborate menu.
Try easy favorites like pancakes, waffles, muffins, donuts, fruit, yogurt, cereal or breakfast sandwiches.
Add juice or milk in colorful cups and you're done!
The goal isn't to create a perfect party. It's simply to make that first morning back feel a little different from an ordinary school day.
Add Colorful Napkins & Decorations
Complete the table with colorful back-to-school napkins, a banner or fun pennant flags.
You can also decorate using things you probably already own:
Crayons • Pencils • Books • Apples • Notebooks • Backpacks • Colored pencils
Place a few around the table and suddenly everyday school supplies become part of your decorations.
Make Time for a First Day Photo 📸
Before everyone rushes out the door, take a quick picture at the decorated table.
A banner or pennant flag can create an easy backdrop, and the breakfast table becomes part of the photo setup.
Years from now, those simple first-day pictures may be the part everyone remembers most.
Celebrate the Start of a New School Year
Whether your child is starting preschool, kindergarten, elementary school or another exciting year, a small celebration can make the morning feel extra special.
Set out fun school-themed plates, add colorful napkins, hang a banner and serve their favorite breakfast.
Sometimes the easiest traditions become the best ones. ❤️
