Cook his favourite meal – It is well known that the way to any man’s heart is through his stomach, so you’re sure to give him the best Father’s Day treat if you have him over for dinner and cook his favourite meal. After dessert you could get out some of your favourite photos over the years and reminisce. If you’ve ordered a photobook this is a perfect opportunity to give it to him and look through it together.
Sharing his hobby for the day – Get Dad to write down his hobbies on pieces of paper, fold up and pop in a jar. Get him to pick one of the pieces of paper out and that is the hobby that you will do with him on the day. A great way to bond together and you may get to try out something new!
Breakfast in bed – If your children want to do something extra special for their Dad then breakfast in bed will always go down well. Get the children involved in making and presenting it, they could draw some nice pictures to present to him with the breakfast.
Book a meal at his favourite restaurant – Many restaurants offer Father’s Day deals, just be sure to pre book as they get very busy. This is a great way to both relax and catch up.
