Samples of His Life
Here's a colorful way to share all the things your kids love about their favorite guy this Father's Day! Little ones can draw a picture of their favorite thing to do together or fill each paint chip with what's so great about their special dad. No matter what, these "samples" of their appreciation are sure to brighten up any Father's Day.
For the Handyman in Your Life
If dad just can't seem to get his workshop organized, try turning empty Altoid boxes into mini toolboxes to store nuts, bolts and all sorts of tiny hardware. Kids can personalize these creative Father's Day gifts with their names or even with what's inside of each box. Either way, they're a great way to help dad be the best Mr. Fix It he can be!
What I Love About You
