Father’s Day is a great time to tell your dad how much he means to you. Along with thoughtful Father’s Day cards, give dad a gift that he’ll really appreciate. We’ve put together some Father’s Day gifts that will put a smile on dad’s face and even melt his heart a little.
Photo books. Make dad a special photo book full of all the people he loves. Some dad’s may not always be outwardly sentimental but a photo book collection of all the people he holds near and dear is something he will truly appreciate.
Give dad the day off. Set up something that your dad really enjoys doing. Whether it’s a game of golf, a movie, a sports game, a car race, time to work on a project, or even just time to nap. Let dad have a day to do what he likes! End the day with a family dinner complete with his favorite dish!
Do dad’s chores. Organize the family to do all of dad’s chores. Mow the lawn, wash the car, insect removal, take the garbage out – whatever dad does, do it for him so he can relax! After all your hard work, take dad out for his favorite meal or plan a backyard bbq.
Ode to dad video. Gather the family and have them deliver a special message to dad. Add in photos or videos of him as a kid and share your favorite dad stories!
Heartfelt letter. It may seem sappy, but letting your dad know how important he is you and how he’s influenced you will mean a great deal to him. Add in some humor and share a funny story about why you love your dad or a collection of your favorite moments. Your dad will be touched knowing he’s had meaningful influence in your life.
Weekend getaway. Plan a trip! If your dad’s a camper, plan a fun camping trip to his favorite spot. How about a golf getaway? Or a weekend at the lake? If dad’s more a city guy, plan a stay at a downtown hotel and see a show or museum exhibit he’s been wanting to visit.
No matter the gift you give make sure you take a minute to show your dad how much you love him. He’s sure to love anything you give if you take the time to make it personalized for his style and interests. Happy Father’s Day!
