Wondering what to do for Father’s Day with the kids? Here’s a roundup of free printable cards and activities that the kids can make for dad!
Supplies for Father’s Day Gift Ideas
Not all of these supplies will be required for each activity. These are general items you may want to have on hand.
- Printer – This will be needed to print out all of these Father’s Day card templates and Father’s Day activity pages.
- Paper – I recommend a 40lb. heavyweight printer paper. It’s thick enough to create a nice card or printable art piece.
- Coloring pencils, watercolor, pens, crayons, acrylic paint, etc… – All of these templates require some type of coloring. If you have kids, you probably already have some of these supplies on hand.
- Scissors – Some of pop-up and 3D templates will require cutting the paper templates.
- Glue – A few projects might require a craft glue.
