Personalised First Day at School Gifts

Get inspired for their first day

A place for doodling

Keeping organised for the new school year can be risky, with all those homework assignments and school trip forms to sign. Our personalised exercise book can be your little helper when it comes to school admin and reminders. Or let your little ones use it to get creative, choose lined paper if they're a storyteller, or plain paper if they're more artistic. Create now.

Pencils at the ready

Personalise their pencil case and they'll be top of the class during show-and-tell. With 15 background colours and different layouts to choose from, you and your little ones can spend the last afternoon of the school break getting creative. Not only is it personalised to them, but they'll *actually* want to study too. Create now.

Keeping safe

So they're off to big school, which means more responsibility and more homework (yawn). It may also mean that they're walking home from school either on their own, or with friends. Create a personalised keyring to keep their house keys safe and recognisable; they'll feel super grown up whilst keeping safe. Create now.

Back to school inspiration

Their first day at school

Not only is this a very emotional time for you, but it's also a moment to celebrate. They're off to learn, to make new friends and hopefully avoid detention. Take this opportunity to snap a few photos of them sporting their new school uniform and create a Little Moments Photo Book to remember the occasion.

Your 'back to school' checklist is saying they need a bag to carry their school supplies, our Personalised Drawstring Bag is perfect when your little one has PE or goes on a school trip, it's lightweight, perfect for little shoulders and most of all, personalised with their favourite photo.

Back to school must-haves

Back to school means the endless stream of 'artistic drawings' your little ones bring back from a hard day at school. Our Photo Fridge Magnets are perfect for hanging their pieces of art on the fridge, with an added personalised twist.

If a pencil case isn't big enough for their school supplies, then opt for our Personalised Pouch instead. Either use it to house their never-ending amount of coloured pencils and scented rubbers, or keep their ipad/tablet safe whilst they're at school.
