Homemade Father’s Day Gifts

Homemade Father s Day Gifts | Mama Papa Bubba

My gosh… I can’t even believe that it’s already almost June.  {I feel like I say it constantly, but honestly – I just don’t know where the time goes these days.}  Of course June means Father’s Day, so my little miss and I have been brainstorming ways to spoil her papa this year.

Coffee Sugar Scrub Kids Can Make

Simple Coffee Sugar Scrub | Mama Papa Bubba

After making a super fun, soap-included funfetti sugar scrub for Miss G last week, we decided that this mama needed a sugar scrub of her own too!  My little helper and I hit the kitchen with some basic ingredients from our pantry and came up with an amazing smelling scrub that involves two of my very favourite things – COFFEE and being pampered!

Handprint Memory Box | Mama Papa Bubba

I’ll say it.  I’m obsessed with all projects/crafts/gifts that include kids’ handprints.  Alright, and those that involve footprints too.  I can’t help myself.  They’re just so sweet and having special pieces stamped with Miss G’s handprints means that I get to freeze time and always have a reminder of how little she once was.

Construction Sensory Bin Gift

Construction Sensory Bin Gift | Mama Papa Bubba

By now, I think it’s pretty obvious that Miss G and I love to make and give homemade gifts.  I love giving something unique that can’t just be purchased at a store, and I think we both love the process of coming up with an idea, collecting the materials, and putting it all together in a fun way.  Our gifts are never overly involved {okay, with the exception of the portable activity packs maybe}, but they’re fun and normally aim to inspire play and creativity, which is very much us.

Easy Kid-Made Sugar Scrub

Easy Kid Made Sugar Scrub | Mama Papa Bubba

Ever since attending their launch party for Fun, Miss G has absolutely loved visiting Lush, so there was no walking by when we  spent a day on Robson Street a few weeks ago.  The moment she got wind of the store’s signature scent, her eyes lit up and she was asking to go in {twist my rubber arm}. As always, the ladies working there were lovely and pampered us with all sorts of fun product demonstrations, our favourite of which was a luxurious lemony body scrub that left our hands feeling soft and smelling delicious.

Build a Sandcastle Play Dough Kits

Build a Sandcastle Play Dough Kits | Mama Papa Bubba

It’s no secret that Miss G and I like to create and give little homemade gifts.  I’ve always loved giving gifts and it’s important to me that Gracen sees that there’s just as much joy {if not more} in giving as there is in receiving, even if the gifts are tiny and made by hand.  I think ‘happy summer’ gifts like these also help her prepare for significant transitions – in this case, saying goodbye to her friends and home here in Kuwait and heading back to Canada for the summer.

‘I Love You’ Pillowcase {a simple handmade gift}

Simple  I Love You Pillowcase | Mama Papa Bubba

Is it just me, or is buying gifts for dads next to impossible?!  I’ve never been good at buying gifts for my own dad, and when it comes to helping Miss G come up with fun gifts for her Papa, I’m not much better.  Thus, we usually go with something simple, handmade, and from-the-heart.  For last year’s Father’s Day, we put together a simple framed Papa interview and portrait, a super easy snack basket, and our annual Papa and Grae photo book {well now that I type that, I wonder whether or not I actually finished and printed it… ACK!  Must look into that}.  This year, Gracen and I have a few new ideas in mind, the first of which is this very simple ‘I love you’ pillowcase.
