Right Brain Kids Art - 7 Interesting Gratitude Crafts For Father Day Special
My daughter was asking me about present for Father Day. I was cracking my head to help my daughter to create some special gift while at the same time she can practise her crafting skills and her right brain creativity. Here I share the seven interesting gratitude crafts for Father Day celebration.
#1 Egg puppet
Prepare a few egg shell, colorful cotton, ice cream sticks, felt, PVA adhesive for felt, magic color or makers. First step is create the puppet hair by pasting the cotton on the top of egg shell. Cut the felt into different clothing shapes such as shirt,long pants and shoes. Then glue all the felt together to create the body. Join the egg shell on the ice cream stick using paper tape, and glue the ice cream stick with the felt created body.
#2 3D scrapbooking Father portrait
Prepare a few candid photos of dad, acrylic color, some sea shell, A5 size mini canvas and PVA adhesive. Color the mini canvas with acrylic, while letting it dry, sort out the sea shell that was collected from the beach. Once the canvas is dried, paste dad candid photo on the canvas, add different shapes of sea shell on it as natural designed embellishment. Then a father portrait scrapbooking is done!
#3 Father Day greeting card
Prepare a few colorful construction paper, marker, color pencil, clay and crayons. Ask your child based on his or her memories to draw daddy face on the construction paper. They can imagine daddy is eating favourite food or drink, reading newspaper etc. Ask your child to create daddy favourite food or fruits using clay, and paste them on the construction paper that drew with daddy face. Last steps is add some write on the drawing such as dad enjoy apple, or dad love reading newspaper, happy father day etc.
#4 Draw dad from memories
Prepare a A3 size drawing block, ask your child to draw daddy from his or her memories with the feeling of feeling gratitude to daddy. I believe this will be the most grateful drawing and gift to dad.
#5 Collage of Dad
Prepare a wooden based of A4 size, acrylic and some of daddy little personal collection such as air tickets, movie tickets, bus tickets, train tickets etc. Use acrylic to color the wooden based, paste the ticket collections on the wooden based. You can ask your child to help for pasting, does matter the tickets are paste in uneven shapes or style, the important thing is your child love and enjoy pasting it. Always encourage your child to make the decision on pasting. Finally do a photocopy of dad photo, and paste it at corner to create a unique collage design, write some text such as.
#6 Make a kite for dad
Hand made kite with daddy is another fun crafting activity for father day. Prepare rice paper, PVA adhesive, coconut leaf sticks, and poster color. First, find a suitable kite template from internet, print it and cut out the shapes on the rice paper. Then using PVA adhesive to glue coconut leaf sticks as the kite back bone. Let it dry for an hour. Lastly paint some abstract pattern on the kite with poster color, let it dry half an hour and your kite is ready to fly.
#7 3D Sculpture using paper clay
3D sculpture crafting is great for children imagination and creativity thinking training. Ask your child to source for the 3D sculpture material with daddy at the playground or park that near your neighbourhood. With the collections and paper clay, create a 3D sculpture of little dream house of daddy.
The most important awareness for our children while doing above crafts is the gratitude and love feeling towards dad. Hope you can create anyone of them for father day!

Children are very imaginative. My daughter four years old, can tell a lot of story when she inspired by her discovery. You can request your child to draw what he or she inspired or discovered through their imagination. I'm sure your will impress by their drawing!

How to train patient and creativity
This is how I train Selina patient and creativity.
While doing art I'm actually building Selina's foundamental of creativity and problem solving ability, by using below listed method :
1. observation skill
2. patient
3. focus / concerntration
4. never give up, retry and retry persistantly
5. day dream
observation skill
1. "look carefully" method
-> when go outing have a walk at part I always ask Selina to discover the grass leaf shapes by say "look carefully all the grass shapes are not the same, though from far they look the same color almost"
-> when travel in car or bus, I always ask Selina to look for upcoming vehicle, by say "look carefully the bus numbers, what is the bus number ?" "look carefully all the bus are painted with dfferent color and advertisement". sometime I ask her to observe what's the advertisement trying to message to public
-> alternative suggest to "look carefully" at the movie poster at cinema, I ask Selina to tell me what she understand story about the movie from the poster
patient
1. "wait" method
-> I'm not always react to Selina's request immediate, in order to train her patient
2. assign art task that need to use tracing method
-> trace shapes of bottles, various shapes toys, which also can train Selina's observation skills while patient to trace
focus / concerntration method
1. I train Selina's focusing on create toy truck
2. do rings art using beads and buttons, beads threading
3. pouring water from small cup to bigger cup, vice versa
never give up, retry and retry persistantly
1. art assignment that a little challenging for Selina
-> I try not to give Selina too much help, unless she request for or if she give up, I always say "try try again, I need your help to do". though it's breaken English, but this tone helps
2. conversation
-> when she requested or craving for raisin, I never give her immediate by ensure her requested me for at least 10 times, then I give her.
By using this method, when she try to avoid problems, I will recall to her that she is able to request raisin for 10 times, never give up, why can't she try 10 different method to solve her art creation problem.
-> I found this method is not fully effective sometime, due to tiring, I will let her decide her own in this case, either keep away the art stuff to let her take a break, cycling or lying on sofa day dreaming a while
day dream
1. lying on comfort zone
-> when I was child I love to day dream
-> Selina also like to day dream lying down on the sofa, looking at the blue sky outside windows. Sometime she will tell me raining soon, or sometime she will tell me sky like feather, rabbit etc
-> sometime she just lying quitely, I will give her drink some juice or water
