Fin-tastic Father’s Day Card
My favorite Father’s Day cards are the ones that are not only fun to make, but also give kids a chance to share from the heart.
That’s why I love this fin-tastic Father’s Day card—it’s a creative, hands-on activity that encourages children to list all the reasons they love and appreciate their dad.
With its playful fish theme and adorable design, this card is as cute as it is meaningful.
Equal parts craft project and writing exercise, it’s a perfect pick for kids in kindergarten and the early primary grades.
