Category — Father’s Day

This is a great gift for your child to give someone special or a way to preserve a memory. Just recycle an old frame with paint and cute designs. You can also us tongue depressors to form a frame. Just paint, glue together and add a message or design. Use a ribbon or string for hanging. These frames are easy and fun and I know any grandparent or parent would be thrilled to receive one as a gift.

This is an easy gift idea for fathers made from a CD cover.

Find a CD cover that you’re not using. I have several because I have a special case in my car to hold my CDs.

Trace paper to fit inside then decorate with photos, stickers and markers. Be sure to write a special message. Slide the decorated paper into the cover. You may need to use some clear tape to hold the paper.

Dad can display this on his desk at work or someplace that he can see it often.

This is fun and easy all year long but it can also be used as a Father’s Day card.
All you need is a rectangle shape piece of paper and a pencil. You can make your house as large or as small as you like depending on the size of paper. Have your child fold the paper into a house. They may need your help. Read a story about families or traditions and then have your child write or draw pictures inside the house, about a special family activity or tradition. Stand it up to display. You can also use stickers that represent a family activity or tradition.
