FOR KIDS: HOMEMADE GIFTS FOR DAD
One way to show your love and appreciation for someone is by making something special just for them. Make a one-of-a-kind Father’s Day card featuring your dad or an amazing pop-up. Give dad a homemade wallet or tie keychain that he can carry with him to be reminded of how much you care.
