2012 Father's Day gifts
Here are two ideas for you and the kids to make some father's day gifts. Both are recipes. One is for great and easy cookies. The other is for home made finger paint which the kids can use to make a card or a painting. Choose one or both to make. The kids will have so much fun. BOTH RECIPES REQUIRE ADULT SUPERVISION SINCE YOU MUST USE THE STOVE.
