So your preschooler is graduating (insert clapping and crying emojis here) and you want to celebrate, huh? I mean, the truth is every milestone is exciting, and this one is no exception. After all, on the eve of our daughter's birthday my husband and I found ourselves toasting to the fact that we had somehow managed to pull of parenting for an entire year. Go us. That's why snagging a little something for your kindergarten-bound kiddo makes total sense and these cute graduation gifts for preschoolers can help you do just that.
Whether you are looking for a t-shirt that details their preschool memories, a keepsake charm bracelet, books that prep them for kindergarten, or a gift for the whole class, you are bound to find something in this list that will put a grin on your preschooler's face. A couple of them even help them learn which, in my book, is a win-win kind of gift.
But, perhaps, most important on the preschool graduation day list is taking it all in. After all, these little occasions can stack up to big memories that will have you smiling for years to come. Oh, and grab the tissues. Because tears are bound to happen, right?
