Father’s Day is fast approaching. While some scholars say that the celebration of fathers has been happening for the last 4,000 years others say that the tradition is hardly more than a hundred years old?
Regardless of how the day came to be celebrated, there is no denying the irreplaceable role of our fathers has played. There are also the father figures who have helped shape who we are be it your football coach, teacher, friendly neighbor, boss or your even your granddad.
This Sunday, celebrate your weekend by appreciating everything they’ve done for you. Here are a few great ideas to make your father’s day memorable:
- Family activity and dinner: An afternoon of mini golf is great way to keep dad as well as the kids busy. If you prefer the in-doors, bowling is a good option. You can bring out the competitive spirit in the family and dad may also enjoy teaching the kids a few tricks of the trade. This followed by a sumptuous meal at a steakhouse nearby will definitely be a day that dad remembers for years to come.
- Bring out the grill: If you want to spend the Sunday at home, set up a portable barbeque grill in your backyard and enjoy a nice little picnic for the family – right at home.
- Go Camping: Take advantage of the amazing weather outside and pick a trail to go camping with family. Alternatively, find a local hiking trail that the entire family will enjoy. Make sure it is easy enough for the kids!
- Nothing like a home-cooked meal: Surprise him with a delicious home-cooked lunch. There are a plenty of quick and easy recipes where you can even involve the kids; and you can a 3-course meal ready in no time.
