One of my favorite memories of when our kids were little was the gifts they would make us in preschool and elementary school.  I loved the assortment of coasters, handmade ornaments and pasta bordered photo frames that came home.

But it’s the keepsakes where they shared about us – their parents – that I found particularly heartwarming.  One of my favorites was at the Mother’s Day in Kindergarten.  As they read aloud some tidbits my little wrote about me, I learned that I loved to camp. 

Who knew?  The truth is that while I’m not adverse to camping, I will take a solid roof to sleep under any day of the week.  But she really wanted to go camping.  Somehow that meant that I suddenly loved the activity.

And have you ever been impressed by how old you are in kid years? Anywhere from ancient to at least twenty years older.

One of the joys of being a parent is receiving these beautiful keepsakes.  They safeguard their childhood stage in gold.  And give you a special insight into how your little sees you at this tender age.

All About My Dad Free Printable

This All About My Dad Free Printable is the perfect mix of sweet and funny.  And a special keepsake that you’ll want to keep forever.

To make, kids answer a few easy questions about their dads.  If your child is too little for writing, you can have them dictate the answers to you and you can scribe them.

Some of the questions include: 

  • Dad’s Faves – Color, Sport, Movie, Book
  • Something he always says
  • His age
  • Why you love him
  • What he does at work (this question is always fun to see what kids think their dads do all day)
  • And why he’s #1

There’s also a space for kids to draw a little picture of their dad.  Like our Easy Mother’s Day Drawings, it’s beautiful to see how small hands create an image of one of the most important people in their lives.  

The results will be priceless.  From silly answers to heartfelt ones, this All About My Dad Free Printable will be a memory that will keep you smiling for years to come.
