Some schools and classrooms do it up right, with big “Donuts with Dad” festivities.

There are many great ways you can include Dad or other special people from your child’s life into your lesson plans and I’d love to help you explore a few of them today!

What Teachers Are Saying About Father’s Day Themed Activities

People who have bought my heart and tie activities have said:

  • Great themed resource! My kids love the puzzle, and jazzing up the tie with different patterns!
  • Great product! I like that it is a blank slate and the students can customize it however they like when they are finished.
  • These puzzles have been a huge hit! 
  • This was a great homework activity. Parents and students worked together! 
  • This was an engaging center activity that my students loved! 

Also Great for Decor!

It is a lot of fun to see your elementary classroom filled with Father’s Day decorations. If you are able to host a Donuts With Dad event, it’s especially nice to see the looks on all those Dad faces when they see how hard the students worked in their honor. I’m sure you can picture the GREAT bulletin boards, doorway decorations, or even hallways displays you could make with Hearts, Ties, and Mustaches. And that’s in addition to the Father’s Day Gifts and Cards your students can put together after completing and coloring their puzzles. Best of all, no administrator can complain about the decor because of the academic work involved in putting the puzzles together!
