A fun family twist on the traditional rock paperweight - this one includes the whole family!  Inspired by a momstown playgroup and easy to do at home.

 

 

What you need:

  • Rocks
  • Paint
  • Googly eyes
  • Hearts 
  • Buttons
  • Sparkles
  • Flowerpot base

 

 

Select the right amount of rocks for your family. Then, glue googly eyes and buttons onto the rocks to make them into 'people'. Paint the flowerpot base and glue on the rock family. You can finish off with sparkles, hearts, and by painting 'our family' onto the base.

 

Thanks to momstown Toronto Bloorwest for sharing this craft - they held a great playgroup complete with Father's Day stories and songs. We know their dads will love their new paperweight!

 

momstown Oakville held a fabulous Father's Day picnic where they made pet rocks.
