Graduation season is upon us and it is officially time to celebrate. Watching your loved ones walk across the stage and receive their diploma is the greatest joy a parent and family can share. Going all out to celebrate family and friends who have graduated is the second best activity. Here are a few party ideas that will make their bash that much more special.

Confetti Balloons

Sprinkle a little confetti tissue in the opening of the balloon and blow the rubber ball up. Make sure that the balloon is clear so that the particles can be seen by everyone at the party.

Ice Cream Bar

The perfect remedy for middle school graduates. An ice cream bar can be created by simply placing cones and ice cream cups on a two or three tiered serving stand. Surround the main attraction with toppings to bring even more attention to the attraction.

Classroom-themed Photo Booth

Bringing the classroom scene home is fairly easy. Simply find a chalkboard large enough to serve as the background for your photo booth and start taking pictures. Find an old desk to place in the scene for even more fun.

Pirouette Cookies As Dessert

Cake is always in order but pirouette cookies serve as both a dessert and party decoration. You can tie a ribbon to each sweet treat and place the decorated pieces on a platter to give the appeal of diplomas. Guests will love your creativity, and pirouette cookies are chocolate-filled and always delightful.

“Keys To Success” Board

Meant to give graduates words of wisdom, “Keys to Success” boards are becoming more popular at commencement parties. You can easily create a display by taking a large piece of cardboard and covering it with construction paper. Let push pins serve as your hooks that guests place paper keys on after writing their best advice on the attached note cards. A “Keys to Success” board is a great way to create an interactive atmosphere.
