Back to School Party Ideas

art party 1

Back to school has officially started here in Arizona!  I have one girl who is super excited to start school and the other one well…..not so much.  I thought it’d be fun to host a little party to get them and their little friends excited about starting school again.

I like finding ways to keep my parties on a budget.  Most of the decorations and items are from the Dollar Tree.

I didn’t get time to add printables,tags, etc…. I kept it simple and the kids loved it!
