Things to Do with Dad
With children, make a list of things that they can do with
their dads or other special men in their lives (fly a kite, plant a vegetable
garden, lie underneath the stars, build a birdhouse, play catch, make popcorn
and watch a favorite video, pack a picnic, go for a bike ride, read a book or
spend time on the computer together, etc.).
Treasure Hunt
Take a walk and pick up as many neat treasures as you can
find while you are walking (like bottle caps and bits of wire). Make a picture
with your findings and add some glue. Place it inside a frame with no glass.
Father's Day Cards
If you're having some trouble choosing a card, why not make
one yourself? A handmade card or note from the heart speaks more of your
feelings than the store bought variety. We have several card patterns from
which to choose on our site.
Father's Day Coupons
Make a book of tickets that Dad can redeem for things like
"One board game with me" or "One free hug." For a special
presentation, wrap them up in a small box and tie with ribbon or yarn.
Games Day
Have a Games Day. Get together with a few other people and
play games. Each person brings a favorite board game to share or picks an
outdoor game everyone can have fun with like soccer or croquet.
Crown Dad King for the Day
Have children make Dad a crown. Get a big sheet of paper and
draw a crown shape. Decorate it with glitter, yarn, ribbon, pom-poms, fancy
buttons, sequins, or whatever you have on hand and staple it together.
