Easy DIY Kids Crafts: Father’s Day Cards Made With Little Hands

Easy DIY Father’s Day Cards!

Preschool may have ended, but my students still have a present to give–adorable, easy DIY Father’s Day cards where their handprints transform into leaves on a tree. This idea is fun for preschoolers and elementary age children. I think my students’ dads will like the message, “No matter how tall I grow, I will always look up to you.” Sweet!

Supplies:

• construction or cardstock paper in white and another color
• green paint and paintbrush
• magic markers, brown and other colors
• scissors
• glue or double-stick tape

Directions:

1. Using paintbrush, paint child’s palm green. Make two handprints on white paper. (Note-it may take a few tries to get a good print.) Let dry.
2. With brown marker, draw tree trunk and branches.
3. Add “No matter how tall I grow, I will always look up to you.” Write child’s name and year.
4. Glue or tape white paper onto background paper.
5. Write or print out “Happy Father’s Day!”
