Father's Day Gift Tradition

Last year, I searched many sites for some new ideas for Father's Day gifts. On one site (can't remember which one...Family Fun??) a mom shared that she had her child paint on a canvas each year for Father's Day and that the paintings now hang in her husband's office. I decided to start that tradition last year with my girls (1 and 3 at the time). I buy the smaller canvases, paint each a different base color, then let them choose their color(s) and have at it! Pictured below are their canvases from last year and this year.
Above are their paintings from last year hanging on the play area wall (orange is big sis and yellow is little sis)
