Fathers Day: Kids Craft Ideas

Fathers Day is just around the corner. If you are looking for some creative home-made gift ideas, for your family or a class you teach, here are some of the more popular ideas.


1) Pencil / Pen Holder -

Materials:

Popsicle sticks
Glue
Paint or water colors
Soup can - remove one end and remove contents. Remove paper.

Directions:

Paint popsicle sticks - preferably with as many colors as possilbe. After paint has dried, glue popsickle sticks to the outside of the soup can.

2) Puzzle Piece Picture Frame -

Materials:

Popsicle sticks - 4 per craft
4 1/2" x 4 1/2" piece of card stock of construction paper - bright colors
4" x 4" picture of child (headshot)
Old puzzle pieces - medium sized (not the giant little kid puzzles, or the tiny adult pieces - about 3/4")
Glue stick

Directions:
Attach picture to the card stock with glue stick (place in book for a few moments so picture does not bubble). Color, and attach popsicle sticks around the edge of the picture, on the paper (not attached to the picture, but on the 1/2" edge). Randomly attach puzzle pieces on popsicle stick with glue. Attach a title at the bottom of the picture that reads "Dad, I love you to pieces".


3) Baseball Plaque -

Materials:

One round wooden disk - 3" to 4" (available at many craft stores)
White Paint
Red Sharpee
Black Sharpee

Directions:

Sand disk and paint bright white. Using the red Sharpee, create "stitches" on disk to make it appear to be a baseball. In place of the tradition "Rawlings" for the ball title, write (if you have GREAT handwriting) or print on to a clear sticker something like "DAD - The Best!". Have the child sign the plaque as if it where a baseball. for multiple children, have them all sign it. This makes for a great office wall decoration.

4) "Best Dad" Soda Can Cooler -

This is a super easy craft for even the youngest of fingers.

Materials:

Foam Soda Can Cooler
Foam Letters
Foam Stickers - sports, outdoors, etc...

Directions:

Have kids spell out "Best Dad" on cooler with sickers. Decorate with various stickers.

5) Coupon Book -

Materials:

Paper, cut into "coupon" sized strips
Crayons
Stapler

Directions:

Have kids create a list of "Good For..." options for the coupon book. Take the best ideas - or if you are brave, use them all! Format them and print them - White paper works the best, and allows the kids to add their own "color". When finished, create a book cover that explains the coupons, and staple together.
