Print This Craft

This Father’s Day wrap his gift with our Easy Father’s Day Gift Wrap Craft. No matter what you use for the wrapping paper itself, these silhouettes will look great. Try newspaper, plain wrapping paper, printed wrapping paper or even butcher paper. Print the larger or smaller images to fit your box. It will make a great activity for practicing your cutting skills. You can even make a card to match using the smaller images.

Trivia:

The opening and closing motion of cutting with scissors helps children develop the small muscles in their hands   otherwise known as fine motor skills. These muscles are crucial for holding a pencil or crayons and gripping and manipulating objects. Source: Pre-K Pages – Tips for Teaching Scissor Cutting Skills
