Make Dad a coupon book. He will get the gifts he really wants all throughout the year.

If you think about it Dad doesn't ask daily for a new shirt. He doesn't ask for another thing he can stash in his drawer. Think about the things Dad asks for every day from each different member of the family. Make your coupons reflect what he really desires.

You will need a computer, printer, paper, scissors and a stapler. Set up the page on the computer for two columns. This will give you a total of ten coupons per page. You can make your book larger than ten pages by adding more coupons. As you are setting up your coupons use the 'print preview' in your file button to check the layout. Make sure to enlarge your font to at least 20. You can add clip art, photos, colored font or use colored paper. If you don't have a computer and printer just cut out the coupons and make them by hand.

Here are some ideas for coupons. Use any of these and add your own ideas.

Print your coupons and cut them out. Stack all of the coupon in the same direction and staple. Lets the kids decorate the coupons with markers, crayons or stickers. The more coupons you make, the more Dad will get the gifts he has been asking for every day.
