Father’s Day is the day we celebrate all that fathers stand for, and what our fathers mean to us personally.
-
Make a list of your fathers life goals. Next to that list, make a list of his likes and dislikes, such as favorite colors, colognes, film stars, sports stars, movie and story genres, and foods. Also, make a list of his hobbies, such as hiking, astronomy or anthropology.
-
Decide how much money you want to spend on activities such as movies, meals out, plays or sports events, and how much money to spend on gifts.
-
Request that each person in the family make him something one or more weeks before Fathers Day. Young children can make cards and family portraits. Older children can make a short picture book about their father. Obtain gifts in accordance with your father’s preferences and your budget.
-
Plan the order of events of Father’s Day in accordance with how your father wants to spend his day, such as whether he wants a leisurely day or a high-energy day. Include several eventful meals to spice up the day, such as a breakfast/brunch, a scenic picnic lunch, and a barbecue dinner at home. Have several options for doing things ready for each part of the day.
