As a child, few things are more exciting than your birthday. And while many older children won’t admit it - birthdays are even better when they fall on a school day. You have a classroom full of people ready to celebrate and - if you’re lucky - you have a teacher who’ll make you feel super special. I can never get enough of celebrating birthdays! Today I thought I’d share a bunch of easy and affordable ideas for celebrating birthdays in the classroom. They won’t break the bank, but they will have your little learners beaming from ear to ear. Love this door display @mrs.dellios has put together using the Boho Rainbow range. You could add a matching little birthday note too, like @teachingwithmisskiersten. 1. Start With a Birthday Display The best place to start your planning is with a Birthday Display. Not only do they serve as a visual reminder of what birthdays are happening when (honestly, who can keep up!) they’re also fantastic for filling space in your classroom decor and solidifying the overall aesthetic of your classroom. Adore these spaces by @wise_in_first and @brittanyraebecraft! But most importantly? Students love to see that they’re being included and celebrated. I always loved seeing kids would quietly and proudly point out their names on the Birthday Display to their parents visiting the classroom. Your birthday display be can an extension of your broader classroom aesthetic, just like the Boho Rainbow items here. I’ve created a whole bunch of different birthday displays to fit every classroom theme - there’s neutral tones, pastels, brights, rainbows, spots and so much more. I might be the tiniest bit biased, but I think they’re well worth a look ;) Did I mention I love birthdays?! Having way too much fun with the Spotty Brights Birthday Display! 2. Crown Them Birthday Boss I’m not sure if it’s the same across the world, but here in Australia, many families have a cheeky approach to birthdays. A simple but effective Modern Rainbow display from @misszandthefirsties, goes so nicely with the Boho Rainbow range. Let’s say you’ve been asked to put your dishes in the dishwasher, for example. If you reply “Ah, birthday girl!” you’re given a free pass. The idea is that you can be lazier, cheekier and more spoilt on your ‘special day’ and get away with it. It has its limits of course, but it’s effectively a one-day free pass to do as you please. Absolutely adore the mixture of tones and textures in @primary.diaries’ Boho Vibes display. You can adapt this slightly for the classroom, with what I like to call, ‘Birthday Boss.’ You simply nominate the birthday kiddo as ‘boss’ for the day and they get to ‘choose’ the activities, books and games for the day. Of course, you pull the strings by presenting only a few choices that you approve of, but it’s a wonderful way to give the children a sense of autonomy and control.You can also give them the option to choose their favourite class job - it’s also a great way to rotate the best gigs between the students. Ah, birthday girl! Image via @missmeg_04 and @teachingwithmisshonner 3. Have a Stockpile of Simple, Affordable Rewards While a little gift isn’t necessary - there are so many other ways to make the day memorable - it does go down a treat! To keep it simple and affordable, I’ll usually pop to a dollar store at the start of the school year and buy one item in bulk. Whether it’s a fun straw and topper, a little stuffed animal, a key ring, slap band, pen or a fidget toy, I’ll get a few colour options for the children to choose from.I then pop them all in a draw, add my little Happy Birthday Labels and the job is done! Honestly, if I had to go out and buy separate gifts for each birthday I’d never remember. How cute are those flower-shaped highlighters from @miss_chahoud? You can really attach these Birthday Balloons to just about anything! 4. Create a Slideshow and… a Disco?! One of my absolute favourite ways to celebrate a child is with a customised slideshow. It takes five minutes to pop together but can make them feel so loved. A simple slideshow can do wonders! Images via @teachingwithalexia and @learning-withemma. Using my Google Slides templates, simply add a few photos, share a few kind observations about the child's strengths and include some wishes from the class. When you turn the lights down low to watch the slideshow, there’s a fun twist you can add for extra memorability.If you have a disco light (which is a rarity for the average population, but surprisingly common among teachers!) it can be so fun to pop it on, add a music track to the slideshow and have a little dance. You can call it a Birthday Boogie and make it a little tradition for your class. While the surprise factor only lasts for one birthday - the fun factor will never cease! 5. Decorate the Birthday Throne This next tip is so simple it feels almost silly to type it! But one of the simplest and most impactful things you can do to celebrate a birthday is to decorate the student’s chair. For a day, that tiny and humble plastic chair becomes a throne. The newest Birthday Display on the block, the Boho Plants range! Even just a single helium balloon attached to a chair can really mean so much. But why not go all out and add wrapping paper, big bows, feather boas - anything you like! It’s a fun way to signify to the class that a VIP is in the house and help any visitors to the room know that something special is happening. Also, the other students may get a real kick out of helping you decorate the night before. Love this classic Birthday Display (left) from @miss.christiansen. And doesn’t this shot from @missglassroom just make you feel happy? 6. Create a Lucky Dip Did anyone else read Babysitters Club Books as a child? If you did, you’ll remember that they had a ‘Kid Kit’ which was a tub filled with activities for the kids they were babysitting. It varied from week to week and always surprised and delighted the children. Now, I know it was fiction but for some reason that idea really stuck with me, and I made a variation for my own students and it was such a hit. Simply start by grabbing a small tub, container or drawer. Fill it with small and cheap reward items, like fun stationery or fidget toys, or little treats. We love a versatile label! Then, using my trolly cart labels, or my general classroom labels give it a catchy name. For instance - you could call it a Birthday Box, or a Kindness Container, or a Terrific Tub. When you see behaviour that’s kind, terrific - or, in this case - there’s a birthday, you can whip it out and the children can choose a special treat. Its varied and spontaneous nature of it makes it a real drawcard and makes it feel quite special. Such a fun use of lace and bunting from @mrsfrantzenkinder! And ditto on the right - super fun use of my Spotty Brights Classroom Labels! This idea works at any time of the year as a fantastic tool in your reward and recognition system. Hope this has helped, BFFs! So there you have it BFFs, those are my six favourite tips to celebrate your student's birthdays.

Another back to school season has just wrapped up here in Australia and as always, I LOVE stickybeaking into my beautiful BFFs’ classrooms for a new school year! As the OG Queen of classroom decor trends, I’m often asked for advice - not only when it comes to which of my decor packs to use, but also how to style them, too! Using some of my new packs along with the incredible classrooms from my community this year, I wanted to help show you what’s possible with my resources - including everything from a boho classroom to a space using eucalyptus classroom decor! Here’s the top 5 trends I’ve seen from back to school, and how you can recreate the look in your own space. Spotty Brights Classroom Decor - @learningwithmiss_campbell BFFs, my jaw literally DROPPED when I saw this bright and beautiful classroom created by @learningwithmiss_campbell! She’s embraced a colourful palette for her Grade 2 classroom this year and used my Spotty Brights Decor Pack for a minimalistic, on-trend space that’s still plenty of fun for her little learners. I love how she’s repurposed my Spotty Brights Binder Covers & Spines to create this organisation system for her home reader books! After almost two years of remote learning for some teachers, it’s no surprise that colourful, serotonin-filled spaces have become one of the most popular classroom decor trends of this back to school season. “I can’t even imagine having a bad day at school when I’ve got this to look at.” - @learningwithmiss_campbell Recreate This Look: Spotty Neutral Classroom Decor - @teachingwithmissamanda Show me a teacher who doesn’t love a neutral palette… I’ll wait! If there’s one thing I’ve learned over almost a decade of following (and sometimes setting) classroom decor trends, it’s that neutral tones will never go out of style. Perfect for both early years and older students, a neutral classroom ticks all the right boxes when it comes to a stylish, modern space that you’ll look forward to spending time in every day! @teachingwithmissamanda has always been a fan of my neutral, earthy decor and so her classroom and my new Spotty Neutrals pack was honestly a match made in heaven! Amanda is teaching first grade this year after three years of teaching prep, and I just know her students’ eyes widened in amazement that first day they walked into their beautiful neutral classroom. One of my favourite things about a neutral classroom? It’s super versatile not only across year levels, but seasons, too! It’s easy to make this space feel summery or wintery by adding things like indoor plants, cushions, rugs and fairy lights. “ I am sooo excited for this new adventure with my new 20 little sidekicks!” - @teachingwithmissamanda Recreate This Look: Spotty Boho Classroom Decor What do you get when you combine the super-trendy spotty theme with my OG best-selling rainbow boho classroom decor? Spotty Boho of course! Perfect for teachers who love the boho look but want something fresh, Spotty Boho is the best of both worlds. The muted rainbow palette is really popular with students and the spots just give it that minimalistic pop of something interesting! I’ve had a really strong response to this new pack and wouldn’t be surprised if this is one of the classroom decor trends that sticks around for 2023 and beyond. Recreate This Look: Boho Rainbow Classroom Decor There’s just something about boho classroom decor that will always have a soft spot in my heart, and judging by the classroom set ups I’ve been tagged in so far this year? You all feel the exact same way! Where is this decor style shifting? The boho colour palette. Taking its cues from the bright rainbow colours of Spotty Brights, the boho classroom incorporates a wider variety of colours using my new Boho Rainbow 2.0 decor. A quick tip - if you’ve downloaded my original Boho Rainbow bundle? Then some great news for you, BFF - you can download this new theme, completely free! Recreate This Look: Eucalyptus Classroom Decor - @young.minds.bloom If you’re one of those people who love spending time outside, then botanical-inspired or eucalyptus classroom decor will be right up your alley! Tegan has been using my Botanical Decor Pack for two years now to create this gorgeous, tranquil sanctuary in her classroom. This year, she put a new spin on this pack to create an Aussie Animals theme and I am obsessed! Eucalyptus classroom decor can tie into a lot of your curriculum and gives a lot of opportunities for cute reading group names, too. #JustSaying Watch the video below for a look at Tegan’s classroom and tell me you aren’t already rushing to recreate this in your own space! Recreate This Look: There you have it, BFFs! Every time I think I’ve seen the world’s most beautiful classrooms, you all step up and create incredible spaces that any kid would love to learn in each day. Can’t wait to see what my northern hemisphere teachers come up with a little later this year - I have a feeling they will be just as incredible, watch this space!
