ACTIVITY: Father´s Day Bookmark

You will need:
Posterboard
Contact Paper
Photos, pictures and old magazines
Glue or glue stick
Markers
Yarn
Talk with your child(children) about Dad. What makes him special? What kinds of things do you do together? What does he like? Then, find photos, images or pictures that show answers to those questions and cut them out. Cut a strip of posterboard about 8 x 3 in (20 x 8 cm). Have your child paste the cut pictures of photos on the strip. Older children can decorate with markers too and write DAD or their names on it. If you have a very young child have him/her scribble with a marker as you hold his/her hand. Dad will love to see the baby´s first doodles! Once it´s dry, cover it with contact paper. Punch out a hole on top and hang some yarn on it. A great homemade present for Dad that he can use when reading!
