Back to School Resources

Heading back into the school season can feel overwhelming. We’re here to help!

From printable lunch box cards to after-school conversation starters, our goal is to offer practical tools that can help you and your family build connection without having to start from scratch. Start by choosing 1-2 ideas from these resources to add into your daily life and see what sticks. If something doesn’t work for your family, feel free to adjust it or try something else!

Here at First Orlando we believe that building connection as a family is one of the most important things we can do to help our students grow in the love that Jesus calls us to.

As we head back into the school season know that we are partnering with you, cheering you on, and praying with you as you settle into new routines and rhythms.

You’ve got this!

Printable Lunch Box Cards

Print out a card and have fun building connection with your student while they are at school! Whether it’s a note of encouragement, a prayer, a joke, or even a silly drawing for little ones who aren’t reading yet, knowing they are being thought of and prayed for while they are away can be a powerful reminder to your student that they are loved and not alone.

After School Conversation Starters

Helping our kids open up about their day may be important, but its not always easy. That’s why we’ve put together a list of fun and thoughtful conversation starters to help make after-school chats a little easier (and hopefully a lot more meaningful). Inside, you’ll find a mix of emotional check-ins, silly icebreakers, classroom-specific prompts, and playful “just for fun” ideas. Whether you’re chatting in the car, over a snack, or during bedtime, these questions help open the door to connection one conversation at a time for students of all ages.
