Tool Box Craft For Dad
Celebrate Dad with this creative and fun Father’s Day Toolbox Craft! Using the free printable template, kids can build their own colorful paper toolbox filled with tools and sweet messages. It’s a perfect hands-on activity that makes a heartfelt and unique gift for Father’s Day.
Supplies
- Colored cardstock or construction paper
- Glue stick
- Scissors
- Tool template (click the “click here to get your freebies” image at the end of the post)
Directions
Start by downloading and printing the template. Once the template is printed, gather the materials for this fun activity. Get those scissors ready, and let’s help the kids bring this tool to life!
First, encourage your child to begin assembling the toolbox by gluing the white rectangle (which will look like the handle) to the top of the toolbox. If you prefer, you can cut out the rectangle outline on the toolbox instead.
Next, guide your child to create the front of the toolbox by gluing the “Happy Father’s Day” rectangle onto the long skinny red rectangle.
Now, glue the red rectangle onto the base of the toolbox. Remember to only put glue along the sides and bottom of the rectangle, leaving the top part open for easy tool access.
For tools with two pieces (such as the screwdriver, hammer, saw, and pencil), simply glue the pieces together as shown in the pictures.
Finally, help your child to slide them inside the toolbox. Watch as this build a toolbox activity comes to life with handmade tools made with love.

Father’s Day Toolbox Craft
Materials
- Colored cardstock or construction paper
- Glue stick
- Scissors
- Tool craft template
Instructions
- Download the tool craft template, print, and cut out the pieces you want to use.
- Begin to assemble the toolbox by gluing the white rectangle (this will look like the handle) to the top of the toolbox. If you prefer, you can cut out the rectangle outline on the toolbox instead.
- Create the front of the toolbox by gluing the Happy Father’s Day rectangle onto the long skinny red rectangle.
