Encourage school spirit with a wacky hair day.
Students enjoy school more when given the opportunity to support their school by showing school spirit while acting crazy at the same time. For spirit days at your school, give your students many chances to bring out their wild side at school with their friends. Incorporate a wacky hair day or a crazy hat day for a memorable school spirit time and foster creativity with a hat and hair career day.
Wacky Hair Day
Celebrate your school spirit and whacky hair by having a Tacky Day where everyone wears the tackiest concoction they can pull together. Everybody in your school can complement their tacky outfit with their wackiest hair-dos. Nothing should match, but look zany. Girls can wear ponytails in all directions and boys can spray school colors in their hair. Naturally, people with long hair will have more choices for their wacky hair-dos on Tacky Day, but encourage creativity by having each class vote on the wackiest hair. The winners of each class should gather and let the faculty and staff vote on the wackiest hair in school. For a service project, ask your students to bring in hair care products to donate to a local shelter.
Crazy Hat Day
Encourage your students to show some school spirit by concocting the craziest hat in school. Ask students to use or bring in recyclable containers and other items from home to create their one-of-a-kind hat. Remind the teachers to start saving recycled items for a couple of weeks before your big crazy hat day. Supply glue and scissors to each classroom and give them time to make their own crazy hats. Even students who do not bring items from home can create hats from old newspapers and plastic cans. At lunch time, file each class in a parade so everyone can see what others made that day. Reward the students who show the most creativity with their crazy hats.
Career Hats and Hair
Hold a career day where students use only their head to show what kind of career they would like. Some careers such as chefs and policeman come with their own head gear, but for others, let the students create a hat or hair style that shows a career choice. If they want to be a rock star or movie star, they can change their hair style to reflect that. For other career choices, they may want to create a hat representing their career, such as attaching an apple and a ruler to a cap to turn it into a teacher's hat. Do not take the career choice too seriously and let the students enjoy coming up with strange hats and hair styles that portray a fun career.
