Make a handmade Father's Day gift that he's sure to treasure. This little jar filled with notes that state all the little things your kids love about their dad is a simple, thoughtful gift idea that celebrates what's most important. It'll be lovely to write these notes as a family, with everyone contributing their own sentiments.

This is a sweet and easy way to express gratitude for all the big and little things Dad might do.

How to Make

Step 3

Get the kids to write down all the things they are grateful for and then roll them up and pop them in the jar. I used different coloured pens for each note and then rolled up the papers with the writing on the outside to give a fun colourful look.
