Fun Printables for Father’s Day

May 26, 2023 by Sarah White Leave a Comment

Printing out a coloring sheet or a survey for kids to fill out about dad is a quick and easy way to have a semi-homemade gift for Father’s Day. None of these take a long time to do but they make a big impact because they show that the child was thinking about their dad while they were making them.

If you’re looking for a simple coloring page for Father’s Day, which works just fine in place of a card, check out these from Paper Trail Design. There’s also a grandpa option if you are doing a Father’s Day gift for a grandfather.

Views from a Stepstool has this cute dinosaur themed coloring page that also has sections for the child to fill in about things they like to do together. This one has lots of different name options for dads and granddads, so you can personalize it depending on what the child calls them.

Printabulls has a nice collection of free printable coloring pages for dad as well as form style worksheets. There’s even a “dad libs” page, which you can fill out with real answers or make something funny. Or ask dad to fill in the words and see what he comes up with!

Simply Being Mommy has a cute and easy all about dad printable, while Paper Trail Design also has an all about dad or grandpa printable that’s shaped like a tie.

If you want a project that’s a little more involved, try the Father’s Day project from Happy Home Fairy. This one includes the printable mounted to a piece of construction paper with photos of the child. You could also add a drawing, or just use the printout by itself.

Learning about Snow

Not all of us live where there is a lot of snow in the winter (or even where it is winter as I write this, but it can still be fun to learn about snow, what it is and why it falls, so let’s get into it!

First, let’s talk snowflake science with The Homeschool Scientist. They have a free prinatble snowflake science less that’s more than 60 pages long and good for multiple grade levels. The blog post linked here includes some fun snow facts, information about how snowflakes form and why they are both six-sided and (probably) all different.

Expressive Monkey has a great post about how snowflakes are formed and why they have six arms, and also shows some of the pictures taken by W. A. Bentley in the 1920s (more on him below).

You can also grab a free snow facts worksheet with space for kids to draw their own unique snowflakes from Education.com. Simple Living Creative Learning also has a paid snow study resource set that includes things like different types of snowflakes, the snow cycle, symmetry drawing with snowflakes, tips for snow safety, snow-related vocabulary and more.

Homeschool Superfreak has another great page for learning about snowflakes, which includes information about Snowflake Bentley, a great book to read (and person to learn about). It includes lesson plan ideas and links to activities.

Speaking of activities, if you happen to have snow around you can make snow ice cream or maple candy, paint on snow or with snow, or do some snow science experiments. If you get a ton of snow you could maybe even build an igloo or snow structure.

If you don’t get snow you can learn about how animals keep warm in the snow and cold temperatures with this experiment from I Can Teach My Child. Frugal Fun for Boys and Girls can help you learn why big paws (or snowshoes) make it easier to walk in the snow. Or make a snowstorm in a jar like this one from MomBrite.
