DLTK's Holiday Activities for Kids
PAPER BAG FOR DAD

You can nicely fit a tie, wallet, small bottle of cologne, some golf balls and T's, your dad's favorite snack (M&M's, pistachios, etc), or one TP roll craft. 

Accompany with the matching card/envelope.

You could also use both the bag and the card for daddy's birthday!

Other Gift Bags on the Site

You will need:  something to colour with, scissors, glue, and paper (I prefer construction paper). 

OPTIONAL:  string, wool or ribbon.
  
  

  • Print out the template of choice. 
      
  • Colour (where appropriate).
      
  • Cut out the template along the outside lines.   Cut along the dotted lines (this will be the bag's bottom.  Younger kids may need help with this (it can be pre-done prior to colouring).
      
  • There is a line extending up from the dotted lines you cut.  Fold along these lines, fold the GLUE tab and fold up the tabs for the bag's bottom
      
  • Put glue on the glue tab (or tape) and glue it to the inside of the bag.
      
  • Put glue on the tabs for the bags bottom and carefully press together.
      
  • Attach a piece of string, wool or ribbon to make a handle (or cut another piece of paper into a strip for the handle).
      
  • Close the template window after printing to return to this screen. 
      
  • Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
