This Sunday, June 16, is Father’s Day. How will you be celebrating? The dads of DNA have collaborated and come up with a fun project to pass on to our kids and we hope you’ll pass it on to yours as well!
Click on the image below and print out our ‘Superhero’ card for your little ones to colour and decorate. Add dad’s head and show him that he is your superhero!
Next week, we’ll post our kids’ masterpieces. Send yours in as well and we’ll post some of our favourites.

Don’t know what to buy dad?
Here are some of our favourite ideas:
• We love the sleek shaker and chrome bar cart! Check out CB2
• Last minute ideas from Toronto Life. I know Emmanuel would love the “Nixon Chronicle watch” but Maria says he’s NOT getting it!
• For those that are crafty & want to make your own, visit marthastewart.com. Love the map coasters & retro labels!
• For the robot collector in your life (Emmanuel got one of these!): Robots rule!
• And there’s always something at Lee Valley for the more practical bunch: Lee Valley
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there!!
