Get crafty this week by making the special men in your life a heart-warming picture. Start by going to the local craft or hardware store for pre-cut letters and shapes. A touch of paint, camera, and frame, and a fun photo of the two of you make delightful pictures that will surely put a smile on Dad’s face.

Books to Prepare Kids for Father’s Day

A Perfect Father’s Day by Eve Bunting

A young girl wants to spend Father’s Day with her dad doing all the things he loves. Instead, they do things she loves and like any good father, he pretends they are his favorite things too.

Little Critter: Happy Father’s Day by Mercer Mayer

A fun book to read with Dad and the whole family. Lift the flaps and discover what surprises the kids have for Dad and Grandpa. Mercer Mayer is a favorite author of the KinderTown team!

Little Critter: Just Me and My Dad by Mercer Mayer

Perfect for the 2-5 set and as your child gets older this book will also make a good beginning reader. While many would assume this is about a father and son, there is no language to say so. Only blue overalls give any hint of gender. We think this book will work well for daughters.

The Night Before Father’s Day by Natasha Wing

Rhyming story based on the poem “The Night Before Christmas”. Two young children help Mom prepare a special Father’s Day surprise. We like how this book shows the act of service as a gift. Contains a lot of great ideas that Dad will appreciate without costing money.

I Love My Daddy by Sebastien Braun

This book focuses on many things a father and child do together. It has simple short sentences for the beginning reader and yet profound enough to emphasize and strengthen that relationship.
