Asking for a little help......
So, I'm trying to figure out a Father's Day project for the daycare children. This is my plan so far.
**Paint each child's footprints onto construction paper (we did handprints for the moms)
**Add a cute poem or print the letters D-A-D vertically with a fun or endearing word for each letter
I've searched the interwebs for poems with not much luck. Keep in mind that these are 2-4 year olds. Any ideas??

I like the footprint one, but I guess a third alternative would be a little watercolor painting of the dad? Or a clay figure of the dad...

Oh, I read this again and realized you were looking for a poem, not a 3rd option. Maybe Shel Silverstein? Although even that might be too old for them.

Bearette- Thanks for the extra ideas. I'll save them for next year. I've got a couple of Shel Silverstein books so I will definitely have to scan them to see if any are appropriate. I completely forgot about him!

No ideas at all, sorry. I am a creative husk. Hee.

I made handprints for my dad way back in preschool... this was printed underneath (maybe you've seen it before?):
Sometimes you get discouraged
Because I am so small
And always leave my fingerprints
On furniture and walls
But every day I'm growing --
I'll be grown some day
And all those tiny handprints
Will surely fade away
So here's a little handprint
Just so you can recall
Exactly how my fingers looked
When I was very small
