Father’s Day, just like any other hallmark holiday, can get very busy, hectic and expensive. All dad is looking for is a special day with his loved ones that he can enjoy by relaxing rather than working. Here are a few simple ideas on how to keep the little ones busy as well as give dad a very special Father’s Day.
Cards From the Heart … Rather than going to your local card store, have the kid give dad a card that’s made from the heart. With a few sheets of paper, crayons, markets flue and scissors, your children can create their own Father’s Day card for dad that is sure to be a keepsake.
Plan a picnic for Sunday afternoon … Pack up some sandwiches, a bag of chips, juice and some fruit and take dad to the park. This is a low cost solution to avoiding long waits at restaurants as everyone likes to go out for Father’s Day brunch/dinner.
A Little R&R for Dad … Just let dad enjoy being a dad for the day. Play ball outside or bring out the board games or cards for family game night. Allow dad to get away from his day to day work and just enjoy his family. Let him take a nap and while he’s sleeping bake some brownies or cookies to surprise him with when he wakes up.
These are just a few ideas on how to spend Father’s Day this year. It doesn’t really matter what you do with dad or what you get him, but what does matter is the time you spend with him.

Too bad that some parents move away from their children so cards are the way to wish them well.
