Pro Tip: Be sensitive to children who don’t have a dad or stepdad. If kids don’t have a special adult male in their lives, consider a buddy system at church.

Father’s Day Children’s Crafts: My Father’s Tie
Tell kids to make a creative card. It can be for their father, grandfather, or favorite adult male. Use the following steps:
Instructions
- Cut a tie shape from the construction paper.
- Decorate your tie to look like the kind of tie your father (or a special man) wears. On the back, write a note to your father to wish him a “Happy Father’s Day.”
- Next, punch two holes in the top of the tie.
- Thread a 15-inch piece of yarn through the two holes. Then tie the two ends together in a knot. Make sure the yarn is large enough to fit around a man’s head.
Talk Teasers
Gather kids together in a circle.
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.
