I know it is time for Mother's Day, but I like to start getting stuff together for the fathers also.  I want
 the kids to be able to do crafts for their fathers even though we will not be in 
school at that time.  I always have such a hard time finding something cute for the kids to make their fathers.  I made this last year, and it seemed to be a hit.  I got the idea out of Oriental Trading, but just had the kids create it themselves and make it their own.  I bought the pots really cheap at Michael's.  The biggest expense was the Hershey Kisses.
Materials:
ceramic
 flower pot
paint
paint brushes
Hershey's kisses/hugs
Directions:
1.
  First you paint the bottom of your pot the color of your choice.  This
 will be the shirt.
2.  Paint the rim of the pot a different color.  
This will be the collar of the shirt.  I chose white so that the tie 
would stand out.
3.  
Next, get a pencil and trace the shape of a tie.
4.  Then paint the 
tie in the colors and designs of your choice.
5.  Finally, fill the 
pot with hugs and kisses for your dad.
