Teach your kids to wrap presents with gifts from the dollar store.
Kids usually don't have a lot of money to spend on gifts for dad. But kids still want to purchase a gift for their father for holidays such as Father's Day, his birthday or Christmas. The local dollar store has many gift options kids can purchase for a low price.
Bathroom Necessities
The dollar store carries items such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, razors, shaving cream and hair styling products. The kids can purchase a little basket and then fill it with these items. Help the kids select the brand names dad prefers if they are in stock. Other ideas for the basket include floss, mouth wash, deodorant and combs or brushes.
Snacks
If dad is a big snacker, then there are plenty of options at the dollar store. The kids can again create gift basket filled with treats that dad loves to eat. The dollar store offers an array of sugary and chocolate candy, chips, crackers, pretzels, cookies, cakes and nuts. Fill the basket and place a bow on top. This is a great dollar store gift for the dad who works on the road a lot and wants to munch on something along the way.
Underwear and Socks
Dads tend to go through underwear and socks quickly. This is especially true if dad has a job where he is very active or performing a service for a living. Help the kids with the correct sizing and purchase an array of boxer shorts, T-shirts, white socks and dress socks.
Tools
The dollar store carries basic household tools. These include items such as screwdrivers, drill bits, hammers, rubber hammers, screws, nails and small sets of a mix of these items. You can help the kids create a small gift basket with an array of these items. Even if dad already has many of these items, he can keep a spare set in the shed, in his car or in his office drawer.
