Directions

This is a fun and artful reminder of all of Dad’s great qualities and shows how much he means to you!

• Punch two holes at the top of a piece of construction paper.
• Cut a length of string, ribbon, or yarn for hanging. Set aside.
• Brainstorm descriptive words before beginning. Write a word list to give kids ideas for their acrostic poems (and to help with spelling).
• Invite children to decide what word or name they will use for their poems (Dad, Daddy, Grandpa, the name of another father figure, and so on).
• Spell the name vertically down the center of the paper in STICK-EZE® Stick-On Letters.
• Children write the adjectives they picked on the paper, incorporating the sticker letters into each one. Every poem will be unique!
• Provide an assortment of stickers and watch kids embellish their signs with silly smiles and shimmering stars. Remember to sign your poems, too!
• Loop the string through the holes at the top and tie in a bow.

Read your poems to Dad on Father's Day. He will proudly display your plaque to celebrate the special day!
