Building Memories DIY Father's Day Gift

One of the things Colden l o v e s most is being able to spend time with his daddy!  Any chance that Colden gets to spend just him and Pier is his favorite place to be! So we created a fun DIY Father’s Day Gift using Lego Duplos; the idea is to build + create memories with dad.

I love that this gift is so meaningful and can totally be personalized to each Father!

It was super easy coming up with a list of activities that Colden & Pier like to do together. Colden had so much fun listing +thinking up all the adventures he and dad should get up, too!

We wrote each activity on a seperate LEGO block and then added the finished blocks into a mason jar. When time allows, Pier can choose an activity from the mason jar. To "check off" a memory, each block can be built together in a tower or whatever shape you like!

To create your own Building Memories jar, brainstorm a list 20-30 fun ideas or activities.  
Here are some suggestions to get you started!

  • Picnic
  • Hike
  • Camping/Tenting
  • {Make} Smores
  • {go to the} Beach
  • {Go} Fishing
  • Plant Something
  • Build Something
  • Read a Book
  • Ice Cream Treat
  • Throw a {foot}ball
  • Water Gun Battle
  • {Build} Puzzles
  • {Build} Lego
  • Make Paper Airplanes
  • Make a Fort
  • Bowling
  • Swimming
  • Movie
  • {Play} Video Games
  • {Play} Board Games
  • Boys Night Out
  • Daddy’s Choice!
  • Kids Choice!

Once you have finalized your activity list, write them onto Lego blocks using a sharpie. Fill up your container/jar with the personalized blocks and VOILA a meaningful, yet super easy DIY Father’s Day gift!

Tell me what are some of your child’s favorite things to do with dad?
