In a few weeks, Father’s Day will be here. Your kids are
probably trying to come up with unique ideas this year.
To help them, here are some Father’s Day ideas for
younger kids.
- Make a Father’s Day
card using construction paper, crayons and draw dad
on the front with the words “I Love You Dad!” Mom
can also download the many coloring templates kids
can use to glue on to construction boards to make
larger 8-1/2x11 cards. Download a template

- Kids can take their
teddy bears and dress them up with a hat, tie, and
glasses….and place a Happy Father’s Day sign for the
bear to hold.
- Kids can help you
make a Father’s Day breakfast for dad and present it
to him either in bed or at the kitchen table.
- Kids can help mom
make gingerbread cookies and using piping to outline
the facial features. It can then be glued to a piece
of cardboard and the kids can decorate the cardboard
with dad’s favorite things! Find a recipe

- The kids can present
dad with a card containing a list of chores they
will do for dad for a week.
- They can also make a
story book using construction paper, to tell about
their dad and why he is so special!
Mom can bake dad’s
favorite cake and the kids can decorate it with dad’s
favorite sports games, such as baseballs, footballs,
soccer, or basketball. Kids love to draw, paint and
mold. Using some clay, they can make dad a handprint and
sign their names on the palms. He would certainly love
that! In fact, kids also love to build things, so why
not build day a special kite (with the help of mom, of
course), then the entire family can enjoy this wonderful
present. Find some great kite making instructions

Father’s Day ideas for younger kids can be achieved by
asking them what they would like to make for dad; or
perhaps buy for day. One thing though, he may not want
any more ties! Make a Happy Father’s Day Sign using
construction paper, and hang it in the kitchen or living
room area. Dad will be so happy to see how much effort
his children have put into making his day a special one! |
