1) Picture Magnet – Every Dad has some kind of metal to hang a magnet where they work. They can hang it on a filing cabinet, locker, truck dash, etc. That way they can always have a picture of their loved ones close.

Trim picture to fit on magnet and glue.
2) Car Toolbox – There are so many times when we are out as a family and a situation arises that my husband says, “If I had a screwdriver, I could fix this”. Therefore, a little portable car toolbox with the basics is a winning gift.
Materials:
- Wipes Box
- Markers (permanent)
- Stickers
- Tools
Decorate box with markers and stickers. Fill with tools.
