Soon it will be ‘Fathers day’ again around the third week in June and we well be celebrating our dad just for being ‘dad!’
No matter who represents dad, whether it’s a stand in dad, or carer, or someone who simply cares and is there for you, no matter what, but to you he’s your dad.
In this post I will be looking at making and easy ‘Fathers day’ gift ideas!
That’s exactly what it says on the tin so to speak, what you see is what you get!
So what comes to mind when you think of your dad?
Do you see an array of tools fly before your eyes? I don’t mean literally, but what you would associate dad with.
I remember my dad being an excellent cook, he loved animals and had homing pigeons. not into DIY, though he would dabble and leave a mess behind him.
Generally for some reason dads seem to be associated with, hammers, nails, nuts, paint, paint-brushes, overalls, ladders, screw-drivers, painted hands, ties, shirts, cardigans, a certain dad scent and gardening, o’h and football!
So let us take tools as one area we can look at, this is a bit like a lucky dip and see what you pull out the bag, in this instance we pulled out tools.
Thinking about it, there is a lot you can link or connect to dad, but how do you shorten or refine it to something simple. You tune in to what dads about and focus on that, in our case it’s diy tools.
Let us elaborate a bit more. Is your dad very untidy, loosing stuff when he puts it down and he can’t find it, then this is the area where we can make something that dad can use, to help tidy his space up and make life much easier.
CHILDREN AS YOUNG AS 5 YEARS OLD, CAN DO THIS ACTIVITY WITH A TINY BIT OF HELP FROM ADULTS!
We can put a smile on dads face, that wouldn’t cost the earth, but a very useful gift…….how about making a tidy container?
Something that dad can put his bits and pieces in, like tools or handy things, ready for him to find easily, all his stuff to hand, I am looking at making ‘Easy Fathers day gift ideas!’
