Dandelion Art for Dads

Materials needed:
• Paper
• Paint (green, white, and brown- 50 cents each at Walmart) 
• Markers/crayons 

What I Did:
• First, write the words at the top of the paper/card: "Dad, I think you're dandy, and I'm not lion
• Then paint the brown seed in the middle of the dandelion, a simple brown circle. 
• Then paint the green stem.
• It may be best to let it dry before you paint the white dabs of the seeds you blow. And voila!

Foam Dollar Tree Crowns

Materials: 
• Foam crowns (found at Dollar Tree in a pack of 20 in 5 different colors) 
• Stickers, feathers, plastic rhinestones, markers, crayons, pencils/pens, etc. (anything possible that can decorate your crown) 
• Glue (if needed)

What I did: 
• Before craft time, I wrote Revelation 6:2 on every crown in pen (I preferred the KJV because it seemed clearer and explained more about conquering) 
• I then passed out the decorative items and glue used to paste on the feathers and rhinestones. 
• Be sure to explain what the verse means if some students don't understand. My students were able to explain to each other that Jesus is the King of Kings and will reign and conquer forever which made great discussion!
