Spread some cheer this year with family, friends and neighbors by delivering a Back to School Party in a Box! This simple DIY party idea is a good way to celebrate and get kids excited to get back to learning, whether they'll be learning from school or home this year. We love beginning the new school year on a happy, positive note and kids will love this box with all its sweet surprises inside. The free printables make this back to school party in a box so easy and fun to put together!
We thought it would be fun to surprise some of our favorite neighbors with this fun box before they went back to school! The kids were thrilled to get a back to school bash delivered right to their porch so they could celebrate the start of school at home with each other. This is also a great way to show you care while still practicing social distancing from friends, neighbors and family.
Party Box
We decorated a White Card Box with 12" x 12" colorful cardstock and one of our free printable party box signs. One sign says "Back to School Party in a Box," and the other one says "Hip Hip Hooray for an Awesome First Day!" Download all of the free printables here.
Add in fresh donuts, a Gold Foil Starburst Decoration, Confetti Dinner Plates, Confetti Paper Cups, Confetti Napkins, Confetti Dessert Plates, and a tassel garland inside the box for the perfectly pre-packaged party.
Back to School Gift
We loved adding some party favor bags inside the party box. Fill Hip Hip Hooray Gift Bags with various school supplies like boxes of crayons, colorful erasers, Happy Day Notepads, Happy Day Pencil Cases, Fun Print Pencils, and Happy Day Bookmarks.
Tableware
The Confetti Party Tableware was perfect for our back to school party in a box. I love the gold touches, and the fun napkins. Plus, nothing says, "Party!" like confetti!
New School Year Goal Setting
It's always a great idea to set new goals at the beginning of each school year. Download and print our free printable goal sheets to add to your party box. Parents will love adding this goal setting sheet into their back to school preparations.
Back to School Quote
We created an uplifting quote to go with our party box. "Believe in Yourself and You will be Unstoppable," is a great way to get kids excited about school and keep them motivated. This is a fun quote to display at the back to school party, or to even leave up all year round as a good reminder! You can download and print this free printable sign here.
Party Favor Tags
After filling up the Hip Hip Hooray Party Bags, download, print and cut our free party tag to go on the bags! This cute party tag reads, "Hip Hip Hooray for an Awesome First Day!"
Don't forget to add a sweet treat to the party box. We thought adding in fresh, and fun colorful donuts was the right decision!
After filling the party box, attach colorful Fiesta colored balloons on the top of the box!
Now...Drop and Run!
You can now deliver the box to your favorite family, friends, or neighbors. Just ring the doorbell and RUN!
This makes for such a fun way to surprise a family that is getting ready to go back to school. These kids got quite the surprise, and are definitely excited to head back to school!
