Who this book is for

My Dad Is a Construction Worker is a coloring book for children aged 4 to 9 whose dad is a construction worker. Inside are 34 big pictures of a real working day: getting ready in the morning and heading off to work, the busy, funny and even magical moments of the job, and coming home for the best hugs at the end of the day. Each picture has its own page and bold, simple outlines that are easy for small hands to color. It answers the big question every child asks: "What does my Dad do at work?" It makes a thoughtful gift for the child of a construction worker, and a fun way to talk about the work Dad does every day. Download the PDF and print it at home as many times as your licence allows.

Great as a Father's Day gift or for community helpers lessons.

About this book

What does Dad do all day? Now kids can color it in!

My Dad Is a Construction Worker lets children see, and color, their dad's real working day. Every page shows Dad at work, from laying bricks, driving the big digger, guiding the crane and handing over the keys. Plus the funny moments (getting stuck in the mud, a bird nest in the hard hat and a wheelbarrow race) and some big adventures: a castle for a princess, a bridge for dinosaurs and a house on the moon.

Inside you'll find:
  • 34 original pictures, each with a big title kids can color too
  • Single-sided pages, so markers won't spoil the next picture
  • A "Meet My Dad" page to draw him and fill in his name and favorite food
  • A "Draw something you would build" page and a color-in thank-you card for Dad
  • A superhero finale: "My Dad Is Not Just a Construction Worker. He Is My Superhero!"
  • Large 8.5 x 11 inch pages with bold, easy outlines for ages 4 to 9
A thoughtful gift for Father's Day, Labor Day or a birthday. Part of the My Hero at Work series, with a Dad book and a Mom book for every job.
