Make a Tape

Record a tape of you and your child singing, talking, or telling jokes. The tape makes a welcome gift for a grandparent!

Make a Tape


Materials

  • Tape recorder
  • Blank cassette tape

Directions

  1. If you have access to a tape recorder, help your child make a tape for Dad to play on his way to work.
  2. Sing favorite songs, say nursery rhymes, tell him a story, talk about what you do when he's at work, tell him you love him and why you're thankful for him.
  3. This makes a great Father's Day gift. You can also use this idea for a grandparent or other special person.
