#MyHappyCrafts: Dad's Awesome Coupon Book

This tongue-in-cheek printable coupon book is a great addition to the "Dad Pack"  - a perfect, personalized gift for dad!

This is such a great idea to get the kids really involved and excited about Dad's gift. Make a little booklet for each child and come up with what they would like to gift Dad on his special day. And then HE gets to decide what he would like, and when...!

 

Here's what you need:
