How to Celebrate Father’s Day this Year

Father’s Day is coming up, you know, celebrating fathers and father figures around the world, as dads are more involved, now, in raising their children, and being acknowledged and appreciated for the effort they put forward.

Family is uppermost on our minds as we begin thinking about, and planning for, Father’s Day on June 21st in Canada.

We know full well that the usual Father’s Day celebrations will probably be put on “pause” for this year. However, you will still want to ensure that your dad feels extra special on this Father’s Day. After everything your dad has done for you, from childhood to adulthood, he is deserving of the very best you can make, or do, for him. The best news is that you have no need to spend much money, or even buy, him anything.

Some ideas(which dads really appreciate)include making his favorite foods, to making very thoughtful, handwritten/drawn cards – gifts made with loads of love that he’ll keep forever. Try making him a Do Not Disturb Door Hanger, or bake Superhero sugar cookies for him to enjoy.

Make a standing family tree for Grandpa to display family photographs, or even a special sign with painted pasta. Make a picnic basket ready, and have a socially distanced visit with him under a shady, leafy tree.

Spend time with your father – it is free! Talk with him, walk with him in nature, reminisce with him. The memories you make with him, especially on Father’s Day, will last for an eternity in both of your minds! Plan a surprise party with the entire family, or a movie and game marathon. An outdoor mini-sports competition in his very own backyard will make the sporty dad the happiest.

Whatever you have planned, have a blast this Father’s Day, and always. Dads are the very best!!
