A Day For Dad

Thursday, June 10, 2010





Father's Day is June 20th!




Got gifts?



Need ideas?



Read on!



In my opinion, men are the most difficult to shop for, so I've come up

with a solution that's perfect for Father's Day, Dad's birthday or any

special day for the man in your life! It's called...A Day For

Dad!




    A Day For Dad
  • Plan a day that revolves around all dad's favorites...favorite foods,

    favorite activities, favorite movie & more!
  • When dad opens his Father's Day card (in the morning) have a note

    with a clue about his first activity! Once he figures it out...let the

    fun begin!
  • After he finishes his first activity, present him with clue

    #2!
  • The day will continue with clues & fun!
  • If your children are old enough, let them each plan an activity or

    cook one of the meals.
  • Younger children will love making little surprises to give!






Take a look at some of our most memorable "Days For Dad"...yes, they all

revolve around his favorite things!


  • Camping!

    My husband loves to camp, so we surprised him with a family campout, and a

    few small camping items for his gifts!
  • Golf

    We surprised him with a round of golf at one of his favorite area courses,

    & we've established it as an annual tradition! It's called "The Bucket

    Tournament", and the winner gets to fill the bucket with his favorite

    snacks!
  • Beer

    For his 40th birthday, we gave him 40 beers, for 40 years! With the help

    of the local liquor store, I selected 40 different beers along with a book

    called "The Beer Lovers Guide".
  • Favorite Food

    My husband loves a good hamburger, so when we first moved to Houston I

    found the restaurant that was supposed to have the best burgers in town.

    This was our dinner stop after the round of golf!
  • Tools

    My husband is not a handyman, but one year he wanted a drill (I still

    don't think he's used it!). Instead of traditional gift wrap, we had him

    follow a "string trail" throughout the house until he arrived at his

    toolbox which we had cleaned out, organized & put the new drill in!




So, think outside of the traditional "gift box" and certainly think beyond

the necktie!



Go make a list of dad's favorites, and soon you'll have a plan for

Father's Day!
