Celebrate a graduation party in a unique way - with a theme. Whether it is high school, college or technical school, a celebration is in order for all of the hard work done.

Themes people generally use for graduation parties are the school colors or mascots. If you want to add a twist, use a Dr. Seuss book title. "Oh, the Places You'll Go" was his last book before his death. It doesn't talk about a graduation per se, but it talks about moving on and up in the world. It gives a nice little twist to a graduation celebration.

A party supply store would have Dr. Seuss themed items to match. Plates, cups and napkins can all coordinate with the motif of Dr. Seuss. They can also be bought in the school colors and combine the two. Balloons and streamers for the occasion are also available for purchase. Large quantities of supplies may need to be ordered ahead of time if you are having a huge party. Consult a party planning specialist from the store to get details to make sure you have enough time for delivery.

Another way to decorate would be to get posters of Dr. Seuss characters and hang them around the house or hall where you are celebrating. Mix them up with pictures of the graduate for a fun look. Make collages of pictures of the graduate, from birth to present. Using the most embarrassing poses always gets the best reactions.

Buy an autograph dog from the party supply store for all of the guests to sign. They can add good wishes and tips for the graduate on succeeding. The graduate can carry it to college or wherever for inspiration and quick pick me ups if needed. Send a picture from the graduation party to include in the thank you note!
