5th Grade Graduation Gift Ideas

What did you get your child when they graduated 5th grade?

My original plan was a cell phone but we gave that to her for Christmas because we got a really good deal.

I don't want to go too crazy but want to get her something meaningful.

I don't think we gave her anything, TBH. She got a cell phone, but that was in the summer right before her birthday and the beginning of middle school.

And, this district doesn't have any moving up ceremonies for 5th Grade or 8th Grade. They only have a HS graduation! It's a bummer! I understand not doing much for 5th grade, but I feel like they should do something for 8th grade.

I don't know if they do this in your district but the kids decorate their lockers in middle school. We got her a whole basket of decorations, wall paper, rugs, shelves, lights, mirrors etc. She already had a phone and iwatch.

My son has a phone already and his birthday is a few weeks before so probably just dinner (sushi) and Xbox money

I didn't do much when my first son graduated and don't plan on doing much for my second son either (we graduate in 4th grade).

Nothing.

She got a phone in late Sept when DH was able to purchase the new iphone that came out and so he gave her his old one.

He’s getting a phone for his graduation and bday combined. We did the same for my oldest son when he graduated.

This is a really cute idea! I will have to find out. I know they go to orientation at the middle school in August and can do a run through of their classes and find out where their locker is located.

My daughter's birthday is in August and that year we got her a shelf for the locker, a mirror, and other suff. She liked it, but she didn't use them the next school year. Five Below and Walmart should have them in the Back to School section (which is available in June!).

I was planning on doing a phone, as he still doesn't have one. I like the idea of the locker stuff too!

They are cute but my son doesn't use them lol. The girls get really into it - with rugs and such as well.
