Dad Child Crawl – Father’s Day Craft

Dads love their children and children love their dads. It’s the perfect play combination when dads get to be childish again and children get, well, a playmate whose sole objective is to entertain them.

Thinking about the upcoming Father’s Day, it was great to be reminded of one of the most symbolic and fun child-dad activity – the horse-crawl – with daddy playing the crawl-horse and the child sitting on dad’s back as the horse-rider. This sure brought back memories of laughter and joy in our own family.
