Simple Father's Day Ideas


Father's Day is this Sunday, and if you haven't had time to shop for a gift it is getting late. Thanks to PowerOfMoms.com for these simple and meaningful gift ideas that you can pull off last minute!

WORDS OF AFFIRMATION: Have each child write a top-five (or ten) list of things they love about dad

ACTS OF SERVICE: Make him his favorite meals (but don’t stress yourself out by doing lots of complex things – a grumpy, stressed wife on Father’s Day won’t be a great present!); work with the kids to secretly clean out the garage or basement or do some other act of service you know he’ll be excited about.

QUALITY TIME: Create some great new fatherhood memories. Plan a family excursion involving some of Dad’s favorite activities (a bike ride and picnic with some favorite treats, a night out at the movies seeing HIS kind of movie, a hike, bowling, etc.); make coupons for a few activities he’d love that he can “cash in” throughout the year.

GIFTS: Buy him something he’ll really enjoy doing with the kids and wrap it up pretty (a board game if he likes games, tickets to a game if he loves sports, a new ball if he loves playing catch.
