Instructions:
Prepare the Crafting Area:
Start by laying down newspapers or a craft mat on your working surface to protect it from any spills or paint marks.
Paint the Frame:
Let your child choose their favorite colors. Hand them the paintbrush and guide them to paint the wooden frame. Encourage them to cover all the edges and sides evenly. This is their chance to be as creative as they want!
Decorate the Frame:
Once the paint has fully dried, help your child select from the variety of stickers, buttons, or sequins. Show them how to apply a small amount of glue to the back of each item and press them firmly onto the frame to decorate it beautifully.
Insert the Photo:
Choose a favorite photo of your child and dad. Place the photo inside the frame carefully and secure the back. Make sure it's fitted well and looks great from the front.
Wrap the Gift:
Assist your child in wrapping the frame in colorful paper. Let them choose a ribbon and tie a bow to complete the packaging. Their handmade gift is now ready to surprise Dad!
Gift Presentation:
Encourage your child to present their gift personally, perhaps with a little poem or a song to make the moment even more special.
