So every year when my kiddos go back to school I love to have them pose for a few pictures and in those pictures I love to have a little sign that says what grade they are going into. It’s so cute and so much fun. There are so many free printables out there that you can do up. Or you can create your own like I always do using some simple clip art and photo editing programs to add text. I have also let me children color on them as well.

This year I decided I wanted to do a chalk board. I already had one that I purchased off Amazon previously when I wanted to have one for our family photos I took. So now I was thinking I wanted colored chalk. I have seen recently the chalk markers and thought what a great idea!

So my kids and I had some fun trying out the new markers we got. There are tons of brands and colors you can find online. Here are the ones I bought. I found that they are much brighter once they dry. I had no issues wiping them off my chalk board or white board. These are made for surfaces that are not porous. I can’t wait to create the signs for my girls first days of school and snap some cute pictures!!
