Fathers Day Printables

by Chris on June 10, 2009

I found some really great free printables for Fathers Day online today.  They’re from the HP Creative Studio and include printable Fathers Day cards, coloring pages, printable picture frames, and even some printable gifts.

There’s some great ideas here for children of all ages, but they’re probably not appropriate for a classroom or larger group.  You’ll also need a color printer for some of the projects.

I think the kids are going to use one of these printable Fathers Day cards this year… they’re nice!

Here’s what I mean…
Put a couple of kids together [...]

Create a Fishing Pond

This project actually came about several years ago.  My son (who was about four at the time) had a fishing pole set with a magnet at the end of the fishing line to “catch” four plastic fish.  As you might imagine, it got kind of boring to catch the same four fish all the time.

Spring Banner Craft

These banners are really fun for the kids to do. They also make a pretty nice decoration to hang up in honor of Spring and save year after year. Even the youngest crafters can glue the Spring objects on the banner!
This project calls for a 12 x 12 inch piece of felt only because it [...]
