This year we celebrate Father's Day on May 26th. This is a very special celebration that gives us the opportunity to say “Thank you, Dad!” to say. The occasion is even more important for children because they simply love making their parents happy. If you would like to make a Father's Day gift with children this year, then you will find some great ideas for simple presents that the little ones can help make. Check out our suggestions and get to work. But be careful, dad shouldn't be there so that the gift is a real surprise.
Father's Day is onethe most important days of the year– both for the child and for his dad. But what can the little one give to express the love for the most important man in his life? We believe that there is nothing more beautiful than ahomemade gift. It doesn't matter whether it's big or small. The main thing is that the child (usually together with mom, grandma or the teacher) takes the time and makes something with their hands. Let's look at some ideas for children of different ages.
The classic – make a greeting card for Father’s Day
It doesn't always have to be a big gift. It doesn't even have to be a gift. Because even a handmade greeting card cansay 'I love you' to dadand make him smile. Be creative and design the card like a shirt, a boat, a car, a tool box, or whatever the father receiving it as a gift likes.
Quick and easy made of paper – 'Best Dad' medal
Preschoolers or elementary school children will definitely enjoy this craft idea. Crafting with paper is easy and in addition to cards, the little ones can also make simple awards such as orders and medals. All you need is:
2 sheets of colored paper
1 sheet of yellow paper
black pen
Scissors
Glue
- Start by folding a piece of paper in half (along the longer side). Now cut along the middle to create two long strips of paper.
- Begin folding the sheet of paper (strip) making accordion folds all the way to the end. Do the same with the other strip of paper.
- Squeeze the “accordion” (close it). Fold them in half and glue them together on one side. This is how the paper looks like a fan.
- Repeat these steps with the second strip of paper. Now you have two compartments that need to be glued together.
- Then cut a circle out of the yellow paper. It must be smaller than the rose window of the order. You can write 'Best Dad in the World' on it.
- Add some glue to the back of the yellow circle and press it onto the rosette.
- Cut two ribbons out of red paper and glue them to the back of the medal rosette. The award for the best dad in the world is ready.
For many children, the dad islike a real superhero. And with this craft idea you can show him too. All you need are perler beads, a peg board and possibly a template. Below you will find a stencil for the Superman motif that is perfect for Father's Day. The child can then either glue the finished iron-on bead craft to a card or design it as a keychain or another small gift.
You want to prepare a loving gift for your husband's first Father's Day, but then the child (baby in this case) can't join in. Or? There are actually also great craft ideas that require the help of the little ones. This includes, among other things, crafts that require the child's hand, fingerprint or footprint.
About thisMaking a Father's Day gift, all you need is a large white cardboard (or white canvas), brushes, paint, a pair of the father's shoes (preferably with a cool, textured sole) and the baby or child's footprints. And this is how you do it:
- Prepare the cardboard and paint the soles of the shoes with a thick layer of black paint. Important: The soles must be clean!
- Gently press each shoe onto the box without shaking it.
- Once the shoe print has set, it's time for the footprints. Paint the desired color on the little one's feet and then gently press the shoe print. Then wash your feet quickly and thoroughly.
- All that remains is to write the desired text. You can use paint and a brush or a suitable pen again.
- The gift for dad would look even better with a matching frame. Add this and your Father's Day surprise is ready.
This idea can work well with either one or two children. Simply print one child's foot on the left sole print and the other's foot on the right sole print. Because every child wants to follow in the footsteps of their hero.
If you want to make a Father's Day gift with elementary school kids, check out this idea. Artistic children can paint a nice picture of their dad or, even better, make one themselves. Colorful scraps of paper make really great creations that are sure to make dad smile.
