School Themed Decorations

When planning a Back to School party for your child, one of the easiest ways to tie everything together is by drawing inspiration from school essentials—pencils, notebooks, text books and apples. Embracing the playful, school-inspired vibe by creating a cheerful School Days balloon garland in bright colors with a modern twist like red, coral, golden rod, and pastel blue. Adorn the balloon garland with this large yellow pencil inflatable to create a fun, cohesive look. Complete the setup by hanging a chalkboard-inspired Back to School banner—the perfect backdrop for capturing milestone moments and first-day photo ops! For even more personality, layer in a school bus tissue garland beneath the balloon arch to add movement and charm.

If you're celebrating a little one starting preschool or kindergarten, don’t miss the adorable Write On Pencil foil balloon. Fill it with helium to let it float alongside your balloon bouquets for cute photo moments, or simply air-fill it and attach it directly to your balloon garland for an extra festive flair!
