Dads 'Rock': Share Your Homemade Father's Day Gift Ideas with Patch

We know you have them in a box somewhere; share a photo of your kids' handmade gift for dad and help spread the crafty DIY help!

If you are parents of elementary school children, your countertop is likely overflowing with end-of-year handmade art right about now. Somewhere in the pile, there is likely a Father's Day craft you're more-than-willing to show off.

My children, four years apart in school, had the same preschool teacher, so my husband was the proud recipient of not one but TWO "Dad-You-Rock" rocks that double as paperweights. (There's something quite endearing about a rock with your child's smiling face and handwritten signature, right?)

We're looking to create a gallery of handmade Father's Day gift ideas, so share your photo here (just click "upload").
