• Large rock (collected from nature)
• Paint (washable, non-toxic)

1. Go on a short nature walk and collect large rocks.
2. Wash the rocks and allow them to fully dry.
3. Invite children to paint the rock freely using a variety of colors.
4. Once dry, help children or educators write “My Dad Rocks” or another message using a Sharpie.
5. Send home the rock gift as a keepsake for Father’s Day.
Use washable, non-toxic paint. Sharpie use should be limited to educators. Always supervise closely to avoid paint ingestion or rock dropping.
