Ideas for PTA/PTO Fun
Our family is committed to our school’s PTA. We attend the meeting as a family and enjoy being involved in the social benefits it brings. It is truly a fun way to get and stay involved in our children’s school. Come on, what are you waiting for?
- Invite parents, teachers and kids to come to your next meeting and provide babysitting with a fun activity in another room for the kids. Children who had a parent involved in education are more likely to be involved themselves as parents.
- Bring a healthy snack, water or fortified 100% juice for after the meeting and invite the kids to share ideas with the PTA, parents and teachers. Empowered kids mean successful kids.
- On PTA/PTO meetings day, pass out a sticker for the kids to wear home that says PTA/PTO Meeting Tonight to gently remind parents of the meeting and reiterate that kids are invited too. Keeping everyone involved is the key!
- Have a membership table at all school activities to recruit and inspire others to join and get involved. When it’s fun, people want to come!
- Sounds like fun: a brat fray; a car wash; a Christmas/Elf shop for kids to shop for parents and siblings; Fun Fair with games, clowns, bouncy houses, silent auctions, cake walks and guessing jars - to name a few.
- Host a back to school picnic and greet the teachers, parents and kids the week before school starts to make everyone feel welcome and excited about the new school year. The key to school success is to make it fun!
- Host a subject fair, such as Science Fair complete with a group of Mad Scientists who visit each classroom conducting experiments to generate interest in participating, or Art Fair with artists who visit each classroom creating masterpieces, or highlighting the classics to generate interest in participating.
- Raise money for school field trips or motivational speakers for assemblies to keep it fun for your children!
- Be a part of the school’s community and show your support, proudly! If it’s not fun, you need to make it fun by recruiting fun, positive people and getting parents, teachers and kids all involved!!!
