The first day of kindergarten is a special and monumental event, so it calls for a super special First Day of School shirt! Use our “Watch Out Kindergarten, Here I Come!” to create a special DIY first day of kindergarten shirt to commemorate the occasion! It’s perfect for First Day of School pictures! We even created a preschool version for younger kids, because the first day of preschool is a big deal, too!
SUPPLIES NEEDED TO MAKE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL SHIRTS:
- Your Favorite Blank Shirt (Here are a few of our favorites!)
- Cricut Maker or Explore Air 2 Cutting Machine (or other electronic cutting machine that uses SVG files)
- Iron-On (Heat Transfer Vinyl) in assorted colors (Amazon | Cricut | Expressions Vinyl)
- Standard Grip Cutting Mat
- Weeding Tools (Amazon | Cricut)
- EasyPress 2 and Mat (Amazon | Cricut) (Note: you can also use an iron or a heat press, however, we HIGHLY recommend the EasyPress!)
To begin making your shirt, open the SVG in Cricut Design Space (or other software program) and cut out the different layers.
Cut out your vinyl using the Cricut Maker or Explore Air. Note: When using iron-on, always make sure that you mirror each individual mat before cutting!
Use the weeding tools to remove the excess vinyl, and then use the EasyPress 2 to adhere your design to your shirt following the recommended time and temperature settings in the Interactive Quick Reference Guide.

Hello,,
Thank so much for the wonderful printable you provide. I love your back to schoolSVG’s. I’m having a little trouble downloading them. When I click on the link nothing happens. My grandkids would love a few of the different ones you have. I’m using an iPad so I’m not sure if that’s the issue and need to try to get my laptop working.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Barbara

Thank you, Barbara! I do think that the issue may stem from you trying to download to an iPad. This post here will help walk you through the process using an iPad: https://www.happinessishomemade.net/faq-how-to-open-zip-files-on-iphone-and-ipad/. Please check that out, and let me know if you continue to have issues. I hope your grandkids love their new shirts!

I’ve been trying to download on my laptop and the links are not hot to download. Bummed!
Heidi says
So sorry to hear that Nancy! We just sent you an email 🙂

These are amazing! I can not get the link to work though it just highlights the text instead of allowing me to click it. I have tried several different internet browsers and switched from my ipad to laptop. Is there any other link to download them? Or if its not too much trouble can they be emailed to me; bethdawn87@gmail.com
Heidi says
Hi Elizabeth, I apologize for the broken page! The links have been updated and are now working correctly! Thank you for letting me know they weren’t working!
Karen Kirkes says
I am not finding the download option for Watch out preschool here I come. Can you send it to me?
Heidi says
Hi Karen, both of the files are included in the same download. I just sent it over to you.
Courtney says
Love it!
Briana says
Can I edit the watch out designs if I wanted to take pencil out and add a name at the bottom instead?
Heidi says
You can use the Contour tool in Cricut Design Space (or you can also use Adobe Illustrator) to remove the parts of the design that you don’t want to use and to add a name instead 🙂
