Remember the important role that our eartly father's
play in our lives with this hands-on Bible activity.
Stuff you'll need: Construction paper,
scissors, a hole punch, yarn and markers.
Tell kids to make a creative Father's Day card for their father,
grandfather or favorite adult male.
- Cut a tie shape from construction paper.
- Decorate your tie to look like the kind of tie your father
wears. On the back, write a note to your father to wish him "Happy
Father's Day."
- Punch two holes in the top of the tie.
- Thread a 15-inch piece of yarn through the two holes and tie
the two ends together in a knot. Make sure the yarn is large enough
to fit around a man's head.
Talk Teasers:
In Exodus 20:12, God tells us to "honor your
father." Honor means to respect, listen to and obey. Giving your
father a special gift is one way to honor him. What are some other
ways you can honor your father on Father's Day? What's one thing
you'll do for your father today to honor him? In Psalm 103:13, God says he's like a father
who's kind to his children. Let's wish God "Happy Father's Day"
also by thanking him for giving us our fathers.
