Everyone likes at least some level of recognition. What better way to show someone how awesome they are than to give them a trophy.
Now, making an actual trophy can be quite a project (although if you want to make a super easy trophy, you can paint a piece of paper or another cup yellow or gold and turn it into a trophy), so we’re going to show you a simpler version that even kids can do.
If you’re making this Father’s Day craft for preschoolers, you’ll need help cutting out the cards, so it’s best to have all the pieces ready and let your kids focus on decorating the cards.
Most older children (preschool and up) will have enough scissor skills to make this card themselves.

Instructions for making a Father’s Day trophy card
What you need:
- our template – get it at the end of this guide
- construction paper (letter or A4 size) in bright colors (gold, orange or similar)
- Other colors for details
- drag
- glue
- optional: foam no. 1
Follow the step-by-step instructions
Print our template out onto cardstock. We chose gold for our trophy card.
Cut out all the pieces of the pattern.
Fold the title card along the dotted line.
Make sure the fold is really sharp – we make the fold sharp by running a craft stick over the fold – an effective and inexpensive tool, especially if you are doing crafts in a classroom.
Cut along the straight line to form the trophy shape. Do not cut the dashed lines above and below the trophy.
Glue the handles to the trophy – you can glue them to the front or back of the card.
Take the circle. As you can see, there are two circles, one inside the other.
You can either color the larger circle (not the smaller circle inside) or recolor the large circle on the cardboard in a different color.
If you drew a circle, cut it out.
Now cut out the smaller circle from the template.
Glue the small circle inside the larger circle.
Draw a rectangle on white paper (you can leave it as is or choose another color).
Cut rectangle.
Glue the rectangle to the bottom of the trophy card.
Glue the circle to the top of the trophy card.
If you have one, stick a piece of foam (or other) sticker inside the circle. Number one dad, right?
Alternatively, you can also write the numbers in marker.
Who is the trophy for? And what does it mean? Our trophy is for the best dad, but you can be more creative with your wording.
You can go even further by decorating your trophy. Add gems, ribbons, stickers…
Last but not least, add a personal message to this fun Father’s Day card.
