Ways to Celebrate

Did someone say party? Publishing a book deserves more than a high five. Let’s be honest… most grown-ups can’t even put that on a resume. That kind of hard work deserves a full blown PARTY!

Here are a few publishing party ideas to show your young authors just how proud you are of all they’ve accomplished. Celebrating remotely can be just as fun as in-person with these fun ideas that can be adapted no matter where your students are learning.

Can’t have a party without guests! Download our Publishing Party Invite and bring everyone together to celebrate your #ProudAuthors!

BONUS! Take your party to the next level… These fun photo props can be downloaded and decorated for even more treasured memories!

Share the fun! Don’t forget to share all the fun ways you celebrated your published authors on our Community page. Share with other teachers how you celebrated your published authors.

“My students loved taking their writing through the publishing process and can’t wait to have a publishing party when our books come in!”
