It can be tricky to find a gift for Father's Day. Many dads will say they don't want anything or that being a dad is enough, and you certainly can find it difficult to buy anything for someone who already has everything. This means it is time to wear your thinking hat and get creative with your gift! Think one-of-a-kind gift that your baby-daddy can't find in stores. To help you with it, here are some craft ideas for you and your kids to DIY at home.
1. Father's Day cookies
Get your baking tray, flour, and lining papers out cause it's time to bake some yummy cookies for the best dad in the world! For a cuter effect, you can buy some cookie cutters from your neighbourhood supply shop and let your children decorate the cookies according to their creativity.
2. A personalized card
Celebrate your child's hero with a personalized card decorated with the things he likes! For instance, if Daddy likes football, craft a football-themed card and let your child colour, decorate, and write their message on the card.
3. Washi tape crafts stick frames
This craft is so simple yet fun to do! Your little ones can pick out washi tapes to wrap around the craft sticks, which form the basis for a hang-able frame. Here is a step-by-step on how to do it: https://www.somewhatsimple.com/washi-tape-popsicle-stick-frames/
4. Tin can pen holders
You can upcycle old tin cans (ensure no sharp edges!), cover them with a gift wrapper or paint them, and personalize them with a photo. Then Papa can use it for anything that he might need to store.
5. Handprint T-shirt
Commemorate your life partner's first Father's Day with a shirt full of handprints from the little one. All you need is a plain T-shirt and colourful paints. It holds a sentimental value and is wearable. He can wear it on the weekends, to bed, or even frame it!
