Photo projects for Fathers Day

I remember when my kids were at Alphington Primary School and they would shop for Mothers Day and Fathers Day presents at the gift stalls that the school would host. This was so lovely as the kids could shop and surprise us! Soaps and chocolates in heart shapes. Also the craft projects made in class were a staple I looked forward to.

All families this year are going to have to rethink Fathers Day in lockdown. So I thought I would write a post about making photo cards.

Taking some time to make a photo card is something that your kids (or you) can do at home in lockdown.

You could use a favourite photo of dad. Or take a new photo together! Put the self timer on and jump into the frame.

If you are older and don’t live with your dad anymore then making an online card could be something you could send via email on the day.

Here are some resources for card design ideas and online e-cards using photos:

• Paperless post (online e-card)

• Moonpig (personalised card & print service)

• Zazzle (personalised card & print service):

And finally, here’s some inspiration from Pinterest for chalk art photos, feet photos, body shape photos, shadow photos and inter-generational photos that might also inspire you to make an extra creative photo card this year for Fathers Day.
