Father's Day Cutout Frame

How can kids spell out how much they love Dad on Father's Day? By making him a paper picture frame using the letters of his name (DAD, natch).

The present will stand proudly on a desk or bureau with the assistance of bent paper clips. The photographs, trimmed to show kids' faces, peek through the holes of the letters.

Frame How-To
Photocopy and cut out the frame template. Lay the template over lightweight card stock; trace with a pencil and cut out. Mom can cut out the middle parts of each letter. Trim photos to fit the openings, making them slightly larger than the holes; tape them behind the frame. To make the frame stand up, bend open two paper clips and tape the small sides to the backs of the letters at the very bottom.

Father's Day Notepad

Let kids redo this basic office staple as a gift for Dad -- their messages will last well beyond Father's Day.

Wrap a rubber band around a notepad cube and have kids write greetings and make drawings on two sides with a broad, pointy marker. (Fine tips will get caught between the pages.) Move band, and decorate the other two sides. Tie the notepad with a colorful ribbon. As an added gift, slide in a pen.

Father's Day Shirt Cuff Card

Fashion a card to look like a dapper shirt cuff, and then use it to present a gift of cuff links (make a set out of shank buttons, or buy new or vintage links).

Cut a 3 1/4-by-9-inch rectangle from construction paper, then round 2 corners. Rubber-stamp greeting on 1 side. Gently bend paper in half. Cut 4 slits for cuff links. To make cuff links, hook 24-gauge wire onto a button's shank; secure with needlenose pliers. Cut wire to 1/2 inch; loop through a second button's shank. Repeat.

Once Upon A Family

Our lives have become so overwhelmingly busy that we feel out of balance, almost dizzy. We go faster and faster, take on more and more and often feel like we are spinning out of control.

The happyhome habits are simple, fun things we can do that give our families what they need: loving connections, strong values, and happy holiday memories. It's easier than we think to find balance in this dizzybusy world. Complete with interesting statistics, real life stories, five pull-out activities and a personality test to identify your style of connecting. This surprisingly simple, but remarkably powerful book will become a trusted reference for creating your own happyhome. #HH001 (Now on sale for only $15. See "Customer Specials" details below.)
