Father’s Day is a special day to appreciate all the father’s in your life. Here are five ways to give back to the men that mean the most.
Show Gratitude
As we grow older, we may forget the value of the word "thank you." Here are a few ways to honor your dad and show gratitude this Father’s Day.
- Make a handwritten card
- Thank him for his guidance
- Spend quality time
- Learn and listen to stories
- Make a thank you video with the family
Arrange a Family Outing or Event
When things get busy, it’s hard for parents to organize events. To take some stress off dad, plan an event or group outing. Here are a few ideas to get you started on arranging a family event.
- Plan a family dinner and cook a favorite dish
- Get the family together for a picnic or outdoor barbecue
- Plan a surprise party
- Organize a family bike ride (don’t forget your Blix!)
Take Care of Him
Dads can get busy, too, so take time to help them out around the house. No matter how simple or extreme the task, they will appreciate your help. Here’s some inspiration on how you can help out.
- Go grocery shopping
- Take the car to the wash
- Prepare a home-cooked meal
- Water the garden
- Tidy up around the house
Spend Valuable Time (Even if it's Virtual)
Whether you live close or far away from a father figure in your life, quality time can mean more than any other gift. If you aren’t able to give your dad a real hug this Father’s Day, make sure to schedule a video chat or phone call. Even though it’s not ideal, your dad will appreciate you taking time out of your busy schedule to show him some love.
Gift something thoughtful
If your dad has had his eye on something this past year, Father’s Day is the perfect time to treat him to something special. You could gift a new tool kit for the garage, a fancy kitchen or grilling gadget, or maybe a new bike. If you think your dad needs to take some time for himself, consider purchasing a spa day or an afternoon on the golf course. No matter what the gift is, he will appreciate the thought behind it.
