Father’s Day Craft for Elementary Kids: My Father’s Tie

Invite kids to make a creative Father’s Day card for their father, grandfather, or favorite adult male with these steps:

1. Cut a tie shape from construction paper.
2. 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.”
3. Punch two holes in the top of the tie.
4. 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

Say: 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.

Ask:

• 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?

Say: 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,” too, by thanking him for being our Heavenly Father. Then lead a prayer of thanks and invite kids to share reasons they’re thankful for God during the prayer.
