2020 Graduation Ideas

Every year thousands of proud graduates take their walk across the stage to collect their diploma. To celebrate their hard work and achievements, and to kick off a new chapter of their lives.

This year things are a little different.

While the graduation celebrations can’t take place in the way they always have been, that doesn’t mean your grad needs to miss out.

Decorate your home

Play some graduation songs

Just because your extended family and friends can’t be there to celebrate with your graduate in person doesn’t mean they have to miss out.

You can set up a Kudoboard and invite family and friends to upload video messages, photographs and words of pride and encouragement.

It’s the next best thing to them being there in person, and you can even order a print out of all of the messages and photos for your graduate to treasure as a keepsake.

Raise a toast

Choose a drink or two from our collection of alcohol free cocktails so that you can raise a toast to your grad. To acknowledge everything they have achieved and to let them know how proud you are.

Take part in a virtual graduation ceremony

Check with your grad’s school or college to see if they are planning anything special.

You could also set aside some time to watch the virtual graduation event that is being livestreamed on Youtube on June 6 at 3PM ET/12PM PT.
