Bookmarks for Dad Back to Event Details
Dad is your kids' best T-ball coach, and he uses the funniest voices for bedtime stories. You know they appreciate his willingness to teach them how to throw a curveball, bait a hook or help with homework, but they may be stumped about how to show it. Help them make a personalized bookmark that reflects their shared interests—it's sure to be a big hit with Dad this Father’s Day. (You could also use this idea to try making a fish, golf bag or telescope bookmark if it would suit Dad better.)
