Father’s Day Award Craft

June 2, 2025

Are you having a difficult time selecting an easy craft for Father’s Day? I found a free “Best Dad” award template online.

Supplies needed:

  • paper plates
  • cardstock
  • free online printable World’s Best Dad/#1 Best Dad template
  • peel and stick foam stars
  • double-sided tape or glue

I used double-sided tape because we are often short on time in our Sunday school classroom. I created my own cardstock ribbon sample.

You can always add a scripture to the back.

Enjoy.

Happy Father’s Day!

Mother’s Day Button Craft

May 1, 2025

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, I have an easy and quick Sunday school craft. 

I found a free template online and purchased multi-colored cardstock. For younger children, large buttons are perfect.

To top it off, I’m adding a scripture to the back.

Supplies needed:

  • colored cardstock
  • tacky glue
  • buttons and lots of love

Happy Mother’s Day!

Easy Easter Cross Craft

March 21, 2025

Easter crosses are an easy craft to prepare in a Sunday school classroom. I was gifted a box of natural craft sticks. You can purchase colored craft sticks, but I added a little water to my craft paint to give the painted crosses a softer look. Hot glue finalized the process along with the addition of embellishments. I also printed a Bible verse on mailing labels to adhere to the back. Note: I hot glued the crosses together at home to prevent children from possible burns.

If you know a lonely or widowed neighbor, delivering a cross with a white lily would be a wonderful Easter blessing. And it’s a great gift for assisted living or nursing home patients.

Have a blessed Easter.

A Valentine Blessing

February 2, 2025

Valentine’s Day is almost here. Why not gift an elderly neighbor, assisted living resident, widow or widower with a special sweet treat? Soft cookies and cupcakes or chocolate creams are perfect gifts. Even a slice of homemade pie or bread would be an unexpected blessing.

Our church preschool class will make Valentine magnet cards next Sunday. And we plan to include a sweet treat.

Below is a sample of the magnet card. I printed copies from a memory verse template and used double-sided tape to adhere the verse to a piece of red cardstock. I included a heart on the top and placed a self-stick magnet on the back.

If you’re planning a surprise Valentine’s Day blessing, please share your idea in the comment section below.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
