Attention parents, family, teachers, and staff — the end of the school year is very near. In one month (more or less), students everywhere will be finishing up final projects and exams, with a select few preparing to graduate and moving on to the next chapter. And whether they're heading off to college and beyond, entering high school, or completing their first year of kindergarten — it all deserves to be celebrated. And nothing will make the moment sweeter quite like a graduation plushie.

Of course, you could get your soon-to-be graduate something specific that they'll need for the next part of their lives, but let's be honest — they were going to get that regardless. A graduation plushie commemorates the occasion while being playful and true to their youth. It's the perfect gift for a child leaving kindergarten or elementary school, as they'll definitely use it. But it's even better for the student leaving high school or college. A graduation plushie will act as a sweet and cheerful reminder of all their hard work, and goes beyond just the piece of paper that their diploma or degree is printed on. And to prove it to you, I found seven of the cutest graduation plushies from Squishmallows, POP Mart, and more that any graduate in your life will appreciate.
