This letter is for the younger elementary aged child. Highlight it and copy it, then paste it in your favorite word processing program and personalize it. I’ve left blanks where you want to put the personalizations. Feel free to add to or take away from the letter. It’s yours to make a memory for your little one!
I like to enclose some stickers, a new pencil, or anything I think the child would love, in the envelope as a present.
I’ll be praying for a great school year for you and your loved one getting this letter!

Dear _____,
I can’t wait till school starts, can you? Oh, I just love the smell of fresh school supplies! I get so excited thinking about seeing all my old friends, and meeting new ones, too!
This year you will be in the _______ grade. My how you’ve grown! I hear that _____ is your best subject in school. That is a hard subject for some to master! And you’re a champ at it! Good for you! Don’t neglect the other subjects that aren’t your favorites, though, okay? With some more practice you’ll be just as good in those areas as you are in _____.
I hope that you enjoy this school year and make lots of new friends! Remember to study real hard and do your home work.
Well, it’s almost time for that first school bell to ring; I’d better close for now!
Remember, God loves you and I do too!
With Love, ABCs and 123s,
Your Friend,
Book Worm
I have also included a cute little “First Day of School” award from Book Worm. Just print it and fill in the child’s name and the first day of school date. Enjoy!
