How to Show Your Dad You Love Him this Father’s Day
It’s shortly coming up to Father’s Day, and this year you may be thinking about doing something a little different. It always seems as though dads are difficult to buy for and you don’t want to get him another pair of socks (although you can never have too many socks).
If you want to show your true appreciation for your dad this Father’s Day, check out the list below for some great and unique gift ideas.
Activity Day
What does your dad love to do in his spare time? Is there anything that he stopped doing while you were growing up? Is there something from his childhood that he’d love to get back into but never seems to have the time for? This Father’s Day, why not treat your dad to a day full of his favourite activities?
This could be getting tickets to watch his favourite sports game, trying out an old hobby like rollerblading, or doing something completely different. You may need to ask him some questions about his past, which also gets you even closer, as you learn more about what he enjoyed doing growing up. Plus, he gets to spend the day with you, and what could be better than that?
A Handwritten Letter
When was the last time you told your dad what he meant to you? Often, we neglect to tell the people we care for the most just how special they are to us. For a special and meaningful gift like no other, write your dad a letter. Tell him about a memory that you hold special, or how he helped shape you into the amazing person you are today.
A handwritten letter is something that can be treasured forever, and nothing says ‘I love you’ more than a thoughtful letter. Something so simple can make a much bigger statement than buying his favourite liquor (although you can always grab him a bottle of that too; he may need it after reading the letter). If you need a little hand with how to get started, check out these 20 heart-touching and thoughtful letters for dads.
Hampers
Looking for Father’s Day gifts can be difficult, especially if your dad is hard to buy for. Often the best gifts for dad are the ones that come from the heart. A hamper is a gift that keeps on giving, with plenty of goodies to keep him going. This Father’s Day, why not try a locally sourced hamper, full of his favourite foods and drinks? They do say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, so what better than a hamper full of beer, cheese, and chutney?
Showing your dad how much you care is easier than you think. With a little bit of thought, this Father’s Day can be extra special. Whether you take him out for a fun-filled day of activities, write him a heartfelt letter, or get him a hamper full of goodies, he is bound to feel loved.
