Five Ways to Celebrate Birthdays in the Classroom

There are many creative ways to acknowledge and celebrate student birthdays. Here are five creative ways that do not take much teacher prep or class time!

2. Birthday Balloons: Print out the attached balloons and tape them to a swirly straw, pixie stick, or fun pencil. Keep them in a bucket for kids. Easy to prepare at the beginning of the year!

3. Birthday Chair: Decorate a metal or wooden chair with paint or stickers. On a student’s birthday, they get to sit in the special chair all day!

4. Birthday Book: Allow your students to bring in one of their favorite books to share. I let students decide if they wanted to read it, or if I would read it.
5. Birthday Homework Pass: Since kids tend to be busy celebrating on their birthdays, allow them to use a birthday homework pass to have the night off.
