In addition to the printables the boys filled out for Derek, we put together a few snacks for him to take to work.
I bought 3 of these containers from Target
Filled them with snacks: honey roasted peanuts, “kisses for Dad,” & sweet candies
Wrapped a ribbon around the sides – secured with tape
Alex created some labels for each jar: Super Dad, #1 Dad, We love you
I desperately wanted to edit the labels Alex created by enlarging the word size, changing the font but I held back. How it looks is really not the point. In the end, Alex was so proud of his labels and so was I.
I chose these containers because they are stackable and would take up less space on Derek’s desk at work
At Target we also found some firework paraphenalia – pops & confetti bombs
So we made personalized sign covers for them. Cheesey I know.
Pop sounds like Derek is 75 years old but we just went with it
Here’s the final Father’s Day gift: the 3 containers, the father’s day printables, the dynamite gifts, and messages written on hand tracings. (Some people are having trouble printing out the printable. Please email and I will send you a copy if that happens.)
Andrew’s says, “You’re my best dad.”
For the record, Derek is Andrew’s only dad. 🙂

I loved it. Since I got this a little early I’ve already started eating the cookies and cream Hershey Kisses. I didn’t even know they made cookies and cream versions.
What a great idea! If you have a chance you should come over and see the FD gift ideas I posted on Friday!
Thanks for sharing!!

Your gifts are adorable! I love the ‘You are Dynamite!’ I defintely want to use that.
Those are really cute! Such a fun idea and I love that your kids designed it on the computer. That is wonderful. OH, and thanks for the cookies and cream Hershey kisses tip. I will definitely have to find some here.
What an adorable gift! Love all the fun personalized sign covers too!
Great ideas! I’m visiting from Thrifty 101.
I love these! The little handprints are the perfect embellishment. Thank you for joining my Weekend Bloggy Reading party. If you could please add a link back to me too, I would appreciate it. It helps me get the word out about my party. 🙂
I admire all your effort! Very cute ideas
