Default Father's Day Activities

Hi All,
Hope you're enjoying the beautiful weather!!

I just wanted to be a bit nosy really and find out what you're all planning for your Father's Day activities...

We have done the child's foot print then added wheels to it to make it look like a formula 1 car, then written on it " twinkle chocolate bar, my dad drives a racing car" or for those children that may not be in contact with their dads, we have substituted "my dad" for "special men" so it can be given to a grandad or just kept in the archives!

Apologies if there is already a thread for this and i've missed it, please feel free to point me in the right direction if there is!!

Default Father's day

Hi, we have decided to make book marks in the shape of a tie. We happen to have some leather material to use and then the children can decorate them!:idea:

Hiya, there are a few other ideas in the father's day forum.

There's also a good how to for the tie card on under5s - father's day

Check if you've any vegetarian or vegan dad's that would prefer another fabric in place of leather for decoration

The children have recently said they want to make cakes so we are making basic cherry or currant fairy cakes. The children can independently colour father's day cards and we have a poem which they can add their handprint to
