- It is no secret that Fathers’ Day is often underrated, well, compared to its counterpart, Mothers’ Day.
- Fathers’ Day is always celebrated on the third Sunday of June.
- Fathers’ Day must not only be about biological fathers, it could also be dedicated to one’s paternal figure.
How to celebrate Fathers’ Day- Some Ideas
Most people do celebrate their fathers, but why is the hype minimal? Some may be estranged from their fathers, but you, yes, you, do not have the right ideas. Well, Trend’s got you!
- Use your words. Sometimes, the mere word of mouth of ‘Happy Fathers’ Day’ is enough to make that man smile, especially is distance is a hindrance- or if you’re swamped with caring for toddlers such that you forget the world around you.
Serve him his favorite meal. Making this meal would be ideal to show the love and appreciation for the father figure in your family, but sometimes, life gets too busy. In that case, order his favorite meal from his favorite place.
Plan a day for him to have some ‘me-time’. A spa day off (of course, if he is not working) where he can rejuvenate and unwind is also a fantastic way to spend the day.
Pen down a heart-felt letter and accompany it with a family portrait. Words are powerful, and this, you can take to the bank. The simplest gestures may sometimes have the most profound impact, and this could go a long way to make him feel appreciated.
Take a family adventure. Just leave the house and go exploring! Family time is also a great way to remind your father that without him there would be no family and therefore, he will feel seen and heard.
Make a momento. This could be anything you want it to be, from a mug imprinted with his family’s faces, or even making a collage together of all the beautiful memories. This will lift his spirits. Guaranteed.
The ideas are endless! And, the beauty of it is that you get to pick and choose what works for your family. There is no method to the madness. Just do it!
