Superhero Father's Day Ideas

In our house, we do small meaningful gifts for Mother's Day and Father's Day. With a 4 year old who is obsessed with superheroes, the theme is obvious. So we want to show Daddy that he is our {super}hero with handmade gifts.

For our Daddy, we like the following ideas:

• Framed handprints for his office
• New pics and frames for his office
• Keychains
• Drink coozies
• Coupon books with free wishes :)
• T-shirts

While I love it when I have original ideas, there are so many free printables and craft ideas that let's face it - we don't always have time to be original! If someone else has had a fantabulous idea already, then why would I ignore it? Here are some ideas that I have found for our Superhero Daddy as I blog hopped my favorite blogs. Hope you are inspired!

1. Make your own T-shirt - Our Daddy has a hard time finding shirts to fit him, so making iron on prints for a 2XLT shirt is ideal! Iron on prints are easy! You buy the Avery iron on printer paper and cut out around the shape. Then iron it on! If you have an image, you can put it on a t-shirt! Click HERE for a free Number One Dad download to put on a t-shirt from I Love It All.
2. Superhero Coupon Booklet: This is a freebie from one of my favorite bloggers, Kiki & Company. Be sure to like her Facebook page and follow her on Pinterest - you won't regret it!

Go HERE to read her blog and download the printables - FOR FREE!!!! For us this is going to be a one stop shop.

• She has a superhero coupon booklet for Daddy and Grandpa. 
• A frameable superhero print. 
• Food labels - I am thinking treasure hunt clues around the house....each label has a clue to the next gift. We did this last year and it was a hit!
• Superhero cards - just cut out the paper tot of your choice and attach to the front of the card. 
• I bet you could print these out as an iron on and make a t-shirt.....you know I am trying this!

There are sheets of other extras to download as well. I love using these for kid activities. Punch out the paper tot superheroes with a circle punch and then the kiddos can tape or glue them for art work. If you have a superhero room or bathroom, you could frame these in small 3x3 frames. The possibilities are endless!

   3.  Frame some pictures for his office - Even superheroes have day jobs! Remind them that they are superheroes at home AND at work with a visual reminder. It's a superhero summer with all the movie releases. Look at the stores and you are sure to find a frame. This one is from Hobby Lobby.

   4. Superhero Care Package - Buy your superhero his favorite snacks and then download this free printable HERE to create a superhero care package from AlphaMom.

  5. Hand Print Tree - HERE is a free template for 2013 from The Crafting Chicks. Just add paint and little fingers! Frame it and more office art!

Ok, so what is your excuse? You have plenty of time and the resources to do it on the cheap! This is the motherload of free ideas to ensure your Daddy feels like a Superhero. Get cracking!
