my dad and I love him so. as
if proud.)
Works all day and
he comes home tired, (Bend
over as if tired.)
He’s my dad and I
love him so.
Still plays with
me in the yard. (Pretend
to throw a ball.)
He’s my dad and I
love him so.
Dad-o, dad-o, he’s
my dad and I love him so (Point
thumbs to chest.)
Dad-o, dad-o, he’s
my dad and I love him so.
He reads to me and
we laugh and play. (Hold
up palms like a book.)
He’s my dad and I
love him so.
Helps me do my
best each day. (Shake
head “yes.”)
He’s my dad and I
love him so.
Dad-o, dad-o, he’s
my dad and I love him so.
Dad-o, dad-o, he’s
my dad and I love him so.
Shirt and Tie
Card
Fold a sheet of
paper in half. Cut in several
inches from each end about 1” down from the fold as shown. Bend each corner down to look like the
collar of a shirt. Add buttons, a
tie, and a special message inside.
Belt or Key
Rack
You will need
scraps of wood (2x4x10 works well), nails, and hammers for this project. Let children decorate the wood with
paints or markers. Next, let them
hammer 4 or 5 nails in the wood.
Attach a hanger to the back.
Tie Holder
Let children cover
a cardboard roller from paper towels with masculine wrapping paper. Insert a 24” piece of string and knot
the ends so it can be hung from a nail to hold ties.
Note! This is a great opportunity to talk
about different kinds of families.
Some children may not have a father living with them, so those children
can make a gift for a grandfather, uncle, or other special friend.
