Father’s Day is just around the corner. Forget giving Dad yet another tie or “World’s Best Dad” coffee mug. Forgo the usual and treat dad to a special day of activities he will truly remember and cherish! Here are some fun, creative things to do to show dad just how much you care. Choose from our hand-picked ideas below, and tailor the day to your dad’s taste.

Tickets To A Ballgame

If your dad loves watching his favorite team, surprise him with tickets to a game. You don’t have to break the bank to get front row seats. He will love spending the day with you and getting to watch his team. Check out Craigslist or Ticket Master for great deals on tickets.

A Day On The Course

If your dad is the ultimate golfer, schedule a round of golf for the both of you. If you don’t play golf you can be his caddy for the day. It will mean so much to him to spend the day doing what he enjoys with the people he loves!

Top Chef

If your dad loves to grill out, create a fun day in the sun grilling the perfect steaks. You can get him a festive apron and chef hat to make his top chef status official. To make the day extra special, cook his favorite dessert secretly and present it to him after the gourmet meal.

Movie Marathon

Everyone has a list of their favorite movies. Grab all of dad’s blockbuster favorites and enjoy a movie marathon with the whole family. Find out what his favorite candy is and grab some for everyone. Don’t forget a movie night wouldn’t be complete without gourmet popcorn! We suggest one of our popcorn gifts. Popcorn tins are a simple, delicious idea and there will be enough for everyone (if dad shares). Choose up to three flavors of popcorn flavors to include in the tin.

The key to a memorable Father’s Day is not the money you dish out but spending time quality time with him. Think about what he likes to do and find a way to do that with him. At the end of the day that is what will mean the most to him.
