Your kids are likely to feel less excited about hitting the books again, so to help make back to school a little more fun throw a little party for them with some fun activities! There are a couple of downloads you can easily print off as well as a craft or two that are sure to make your little party fun and might even get them excited! It's a great way to bring your summer fun to a close!
1. Printable Coloring Lunch Sacks
These lunch sacks are perfect for a back to school bash! Just download the printable, tape down the folded flap and closure parts of the bag, and print it out. I used white bags to make it easier for coloring, but you can use the classic brown bags too. Lunch sacks your kids can color are sure to get them excited for back to school!
2. Printable Stickers
How about some fun stickers? The kids will have a blast with these. They can stick them onto their new school supplies to jazz them up, or just on to their shirts! To make them, just download the design here and print it out onto sticker paper, then cut them out and you're ready to stick!

These fun balloons are reminiscent of classic blackboards but without the chalk! Grab some black balloons from your local party store and, with a white paint marker, draw on school-themed designs like "A+" or "ABC" etc. They're the perfect touch to make back to school a real party!
4. Apple Surprise Ball
Unravel fun with this apple shaped surprise ball! This is the real show stopper of the party. If you've never made a surprise ball before, you are in for a treat! The kids will love unraveling their ball to find tiny toys and other surprises!
Instructions:
Step 1
To make one, you'll need some red crepe paper cut into thin strips.
Tip
The thinner the strips, the easier it is to make the ball turn out smooth and round!
Step 2
Next, grab some small toys, stickers, etc. and one by one wrap them up into one ball.
Step 3
To finish it off, tape the crepe paper strip you end with down and cut out a leaf shape from green crepe paper and tape it to the top.
