DLTK's Holiday Crafts for Kids
"I'm Hooked on Daddy" Father's Day Card

This is a simple card or picture for dad centered around a child's handprint.

This makes a really cute card to accompany a fishing related gift (a new fishing reel or some nifty hooks).

You can use paint to make a handprint or you can trace a hand onto construction paper.

Print template of choice or you can make your own - there is a choice of templates for a picture or a card.
If making a card, fold in half down the middle.
Trace the child's hand onto a piece of construction paper or have them make a handprint with fingerpaint.
If necessary, glue the handprint onto the card or picture so the palm of the hand just overlaps the hook.
Draw kissy fish lips (I just draw a squashed heart shape) on the palm.
Draw an eye or glue a wiggly eye on the fish.

You can add this poem to the inside of the card:

I know you wipe some away,

But this handprint was made to stay.

So keep it forever, a treasure you'll see.

A special “I Love You”, to you from me.
