Father’s Day Craft Gift Idea

When it comes to Father’s Day, a lot of us are not sure what to create or even what to buy. Why is it so hard to think of a great Father’s Day gift. With this easy Father’s Day craft, you can give something that is sure to make him smile. Let Dad know what you think of him and how much he rocks. 

Crafting with Rocks

People have been crafting with rocks since before the Pet Rock was even created. These days, rocks have taken on a whole new life with crafting since kids have started making beautifully decorated rocks and leaving them places for others to find. This is a great twist on geocaching in my opinion. My kids love to create fun rock. There are even Rock Painting Kits that come with everything kids need to make gorgeous rocks. If you don’t have the supplies to make My Dad Rocks rocks, these kits can be an easy go to. But most likely, if you check the yard or even go for a walk, you will find rocks that will work perfectly.
