How to Set Up Your Scavenger Hunt for Dad

Craft the perfect adventure with a little DIY and personalization from the kids. Prepare the clues and personalize the hide-and-seek adventure to create a special hunt for dad.

Preparing the Clues

Print the Scavenger Hunt Clue Cards: We’ve made it easy by creating 20 scavenger hunt clues for him. Download the scavenger hunt and cut out the clue cards. In this print-and-play set, choose the clues that fit your home and your dad’s quirks and personality to make it a better experience. For example, if your dad doesn’t play golf, leave out the clue that would be found with the golf clubs.
Personalize Your Clues: With each clue card, utilize the bonus. We added 24 Editable Coupons included in our printable set. Personalize them using the free Adobe PDF version to cater specifically to your dad’s interests and hobbies.
Strategic Placement: Save the first clue card. You will keep this to start the hunt. Then hide each clue in a location that is meaningful or amusing for your dad. While the locations are already determined, consider utilizing the props around the object related to inside jokes or fond memories. Strategically place the fun clues in spots that spark nostalgia, tickle his funny bone, or challenge his inner Sherlock. For example, if one of the clues is “at the grill” leave a funny note or object on the grill with the clue. One example could be burnt buns symbolizing the last time Dad overcooked the bread and almost burnt the house down. With the placement, add a cute coupon for Dad that says “Good for One Uber Eats Meal.” Placement and personalized details are what will bring laughter and memories.

Creative Ideas for an Engaging Hunt

Mix Physical and Intellectual Challenges: Combine clues that require physical activity with those that need problem-solving skills. Make your scavenger hunt extra challenging when you add short puzzles like riddles, problem-solving puzzles, dad jokes he must solve, or even Sodku puzzles.
Incorporate Dad’s Favorites: Tailor the hunt around his favorite hobbies, books, or movies. Have small trinkets, prizes, or a hidden gift with each of the clue cards. Or have a giant gift with the last clue.
Involve the Whole Family: Turn it into a family affair, where each member can contribute to the planning or participate in the hunt. There is no child too small, no adult too stoic. The whole family can add a small touch and contribute to the giggles.

Making Memories That Last

This scavenger hunt is not just about finding treasures; it’s about creating lasting memories with your dad. Whether it’s for a special occasion or just a regular day, this adventure is sure to bring smiles and laughter, strengthening the bond you share.

Kids of all ages can get involved in the planning. Remember, the key to a successful scavenger hunt lies in its personalization. By incorporating elements that are unique to your dad, you create an experience that is not only fun but also deeply meaningful. Get ready to see the joy in your dad’s eyes as he unravels each clue, uncovering the love and thought put into every step of this delightful adventure.

May 27, 2021 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Crafts, DIY, Facebook, Father's Day, Instagram, Parenting, Pinterest, Social Media

Follow this quick and easy tutorial for how to make soundwave art plus create an adorable DIY Father’s Day Gift idea – I love you Soundwave Art Generator craft for kids. The best father’s day gift yet!

Soundwave Art

We have been so blessed to have some of the most amazing preschool teachers! While I have loved every mother’s day (and father’s day gift) my children have created, this years gifts for parents have knocked some other’s out of the park.

For a preschool mother’s day gift, I got adorable photo holders made out of beads and a painted rock. For a preschool Father’s day craft, my husband got the most adorable I Love You Soundwave Art Craft.

How to make soundwave art

It is very easy to make your own soundwave art. I was surprised by how remarkably quick it was with no instruction.

First, open the voice recorder app on your cell phone. Record an I love you memo. If you are an educator (preschool or elementary school), save each file as the child’s name so you can easily identify who is who when creating your soundwave pattern.

How do I get soundwaves from a recording?

Once you have your personalized recording, you want to use a free soundwave art generator. How do you do sound wave art? I looked at a few soundwaves generators, but I found https://convert.ing-now.com to be incredibly easy and straight forward.

Soundwave Graphic Generator

1.) Visit the free soundwave art generator.

2.) Select the circle button, let’s go.

3.) Upload your sound recording.

4.) Choose your foreground color and wavelength size (I chose black and 1800 x 280.)

5.) Click the okay button to generator your soundwave art.

6.) Right click on the soundwave art image and download your I love you soundwave pattern.

I Love You Soundwave Art DIY

Once you’ve created your I love you sound wave art generator, it’s time for a fun father’s day preschool craft (or elementary and older kids too!)

How do you do sound wave art?

Supplies

I Love You Soundwave Art
Paint Supplies (we love Do A Dot Art! Marker Paints for younger kids)
Printer (or print at Staples)
Scissors
Cardstock
Laminator

Instructions

How do soundwave gifts work? Once you have your your personalized sound wave art, it’s time to print the pattern.

First follow the steps above to create a voice memo recording converted to a to sound wave file (png, jpeg, etc.)

Open Microsoft Word and rotate your new document to a landscape design.

Write the phrase “I love you” in the center of the document.

Paste below the phrase, your soundwave file.

Print on cardstock and cut into the shape of a heart.

Using markers or paint (we like Do A Dot Art! Marker Paints) allows your child to color the heart.

Allow the heart to dry.

Once the painted heart is dry, laminate your painted heart sound wave art DIY.

Gift to dad as a DIY Father’s Day craft to keep forever!

Can You Play Soundwave Art?

Do you want to take this a step further? In our memorial crafts for loved ones, I shared one way to play soundwave art. You would basically need a QR code to create soundwave art that plays. A QR code is a pixelated number of black squares and dots that form a square. When scanned with a camera app it opens a browser or browser that holds the sound recording.

Can you play soundwave art? Yes – create a soundwave with a QR code! For this process, you will either purchase a soundwave QR code or create your own URL to hold your recording. Once you have the URL with your sound recording, you can quickly create a QR code on QR-Tiger. If your voice memo is a MP3, you can also upload this on QR Tiger.

Our Pinterest community and I would love to see how this worked out for you. Share your sound wave art block or final DIY Father’s Day Soundwave Craft. Leave a comment and/or add a photo here on Pinterest!

When looking for Father’s Day Cake Designs, I only had two words that had to match the criteria – cute and easy. These easy Father’s day cake images are perfect for the kids to join in with simple cake recipes. Enjoy Father’s Day cupcakes, cakes, donuts, and even cake pop ideas!

Father’s Day Cake Designs

Does it every surprise you how early in the season ads began to show? Because of one simple Google search and suddenly I am flooded with father’s day cake advertisements. Little does Google realize (or do they) that my search of fathers day cake images is only because I fully plan to make my own easy and simple Father’s Day Cake Design. I bet if you have an amazing dad (or world’s okay-est dad), you too are on the hunt for Fathers Day Cake Ideas.

How can I make my dad’s Father’s Day special?

I ask myself this question every June. Truthfully our family does not go all out on every special occasion, but a boxed cake mix does always end up un my grocery shopping cart and we come home and act like we are on The Great British Bake Off. Our family is so competitive about our cake designs, that I have to rotate who is in charge of the cake each occasion. Luckily there are 7 of us and between 7 birthdays and too many holidays to count, there are many occasions for being crowned as “the best baker!”

If you too are asking what should I do for Father’s Day, pause here. Set the table, pull out some paper plates, and fill dad’s sweet tooth with some delight. These Happy Father’s Day Cake Ideas are that challenging. Best of all, most of them can be adapted to dad’s favorite flavor – chocolate, vanilla, carrot, hummingbird, yellow or our pop’s favorite – funfetti!

More Father’s Day Ideas

We have loads of Father’s day Ideas. Looking for the what can I get dad for Father’s Day, enjoy these posts before you get baking…

Father’s Day Cakes

Get ready to be blown away with these Happy Father’s Day cake designs!

This is a cute Father’s Day Cake design for those dads that like the great outdoors. I know my husband would take a campfire every night, as well as a chocolate cake. Follow this Campfire Cake tutorial on Hallmark (of all places!)

This Father’s Day cake topper is made from from Twizzlers and Bamboo Skewers. Isn’t that so fun (and easy?) Grab a box cake, tub of white icing and a bag of Twizzlers for this easy Father’s Day Cake idea from Oh Happy Day. If you are asking, “what can I do for Father’s Day with no money?” I bet you can find many of these items in your pantry or pick up everything for under $10.

For a bigger challenge, learn how to make father’s day cake with a check pattern. This Lumberjack Cake, from Jenny Cookies, creates a Buffalo plaid center using a Wilton Round Checkerboard Cake Pan Set. That means this checkerboard cake is as easy to make as boxed cake mix and some food coloring.

Does dad love Root Beer? If your dad would enjoy a “less sweet” cake, try this Father’s Day Bundt Cake Recipe from Father and Us.

Pick up these affordable photo cupcake toppers or make your own.

Okay seriously, how cute are these Lawn Mower Cupcakes from The Celebration Shoppe. Our daddy-o would love them, especially if he was given the day off from the lawn. Have an older son, throw him out doors to mow while dad sits on the couch!

Speaking of sitting on the couch, who wouldn’t love to also snack on these Corona & Blue Moon Cupcakes for Father’s Day from Erica’s Sweet Tooth. We especially think Corona is nicely fitting after the past year(s) we’ve had.

I mustache you a question. Are you enjoying these fathers day cake decorating ideas? We have more. Recreate our Mustache Cupcakes using a mustache template. We think dad will love it! make sure you put one on your upper lip when you cutely express “Happy father’s day!” to dad.

One of our favorite fathers day cake decorating ideas is this Hole in One Donut Recipe. Yes, we know it isn’t a cake, but put it on top of a cake or skip the donut recipe and just create a boxed cake mix following the same gold design directions. Don’t forget to add this Donuts for Dad Invitation!

I was really surprised how easy this Father’s Day Donuts recipe is. Using Alphabet Cookie Cutters and Pillsbury Grands, recreate it yourself by following the directions on A Pretty Cool Life. Place them on top of a cake for a fun father cake design.
