Tops: Get yourself a basic layering tank, a casual long sleeve, a cozy Henley, and a puff-sleeve blouse so you have the essentials for any occasion.
Sweaters: Snuggle up! Grab a cute cardigan, a fashion-forward polo sweater, and a trendy plaid poncho so you can stay warm when it starts to get cold.
Bottoms: Keep your bottoms simple and opt for classic boyfriend jeans, versatile cargo pants, and a pretty maxi skirt. You can pair these options with any of the above tops for a rockin’ autumn look.
Shoes: Fashion starts with the feet! Your footwear can make or break your outfit. For fall, get a pair of cheetah-print slip-on sneakers, neutral Chelsea boots, and adorable snakeskin flats!

Another school year has come and gone, and we’re ready to fully enjoy a summer of sunshine, swimming, and serious relaxation. It’s a much-needed break for the kids and parents alike! Kristy had a fun-filled end of the school year, and as room mom extraordinaire (along with a couple other really amazing room moms), she helped make sure the classroom finished the year with a lineup of awesome parties and celebrations. Whether you’re taking on classroom duties next year or you need some inspiration for exciting summer activities, these end-of-year celebration ideas can be used for any occasion! See our roundup below.
Picnic Day

Grab your picnic baskets and blankets, because it is picnic day!! From the animal explorer hats to the teddy bear-themed snacks, this is the most adorable picnic you ever will see.
Field Day
Field day is a must for the end of the school year! Whether you go team tie dye or split up with solid colors, the options for showing your team spirit are endless. Grab all the sports essentials like water bottles, wrist and headbands, sunglasses, and of course, plenty of snacks!
Camping Day
Classroom camping for the win! Have a camping day with s’mores, “lake water” drinks, spooky stories around the campfire, and lots of team-building activities!
Disney Day
Bring Disney to the classroom with a Disney day! From Mickey Mouse ice cream bars to decorate-your-own-ears, the kids can transport to the most magical place on earth without ever leaving home.
Bubble Day
Plan a bubblicious bubble day with lots of bubbly snacks and activities!! Armed with bubble wands, bubble gum, and bubbly juice, the kids will have a blast with this one.
Glow Dance Party
Glow, baby, glow! Take it back to the 80s with a glow dance party! Grab your glowsticks and glow-in-the-dark stickers and get ready for a few rounds of light-up bowling followed by the ultimate dance off.
Lemonade Day
Nothing says summer like a glass of slightly sweet, slightly tangy lemonade. Make lemonade day a study in statistics and science with a little experiment! Brew up a few different flavors and let the kids taste-test and vote for their favorite. Don’t forget the lemonade-inspired snacks!!
End of Year Gifts
When you have a classroom full of the best kids, you definitely want to cherish the memories and bonds that you created. And a great way to show your appreciation for the students is with a summer-themed gift that they can enjoy over the next few months!! Stuff some mesh beach bags with snacks, toys, and summer essentials, and let the kids know just how special they are.
And of course, we can’t forget about the classroom leaders that made it all possible. These end-of-year gifts for teachers are a small way to show your thanks for all of their hard work!! Grab a summer-inspired drink dispenser and fill it with a mix of self-care essentials, sunny day necessities, and sweet treats for the perfect summer send off.

Our school professionals work so hard all year long, and now that summer break is approaching, it’s time for them to take a much-deserved break! Help them out by giving them a sun-sensational gift they can use and enjoy all summer long! These end-of-year gifts can be customized to include whatever seasonal goodies you want…see our end-of-year gift ideas below!
![](https://i0.wp.com/frugalnthriving.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/All-Gifts.jpg?resize=608%2C591&ssl=1)
Whether you want to grab a pretty insulted cooler or a fun drink dispenser to fill with little knick-knacks, or even a fishbowl filled with Jell-O shots or airplane shooters (Kristy’s son’s preschool teachers had 34 students in her class and 28 of them were boys – so yes, this was a much-appreciated gift), these summer-themed gifts will keep your teachers relaxed and loving life until the next school year starts.
Fill your insulated coolers with the essentials like drink mixers (we love pineapple juice or tropical juice for summer) and a Brumate shaker for easy mixing and drinking, cute beach towel chair clips, and travel-sized skincare and beauty products like hair ties and nail polish!
Stock up your drink dispensers with mini sun safety products, dry shampoo, refreshing facial mist, a cute coffee mug or stemless wineglass, and other summertime favorites!
These are some great go-to basket fillers – little snacks, hydration packs, and gum are also great ideas!
These clear bags are perfect for storing all of those little goodies! Add this adorable gift tag and the teachers are sure to appreciate your thoughtful gift!
