If you’re fortunate enough to still have your father in your life, then hopefully you regularly take the opportunity to show him how much you love him and how much you value his presence in your life.
When it comes to Father’s Day, now is your chance to shower him with presents and thoughts and if you are looking for some particularly sentimental ideas, then you have definitely clicked on the right article. Here are the top four sentimental ways to show your dad you love him.
1. Arrange a Games Day
Whether it’s Father’s Day itself, Christmas, or his birthday, the first suggestion on the list to show your dad that you love him is to arrange a games day for you both.
If outside pursuits are more his thing, then you could buy a range of different ball games and other outdoor games such as bowling and even, for the more refined dad, croquet, to play in the garden.
Alternatively, you could instead choose to hold a board game competition, bringing out all the favourites from your childhood, together with some newer and more modern games.
2. Book a Meal at His Favourite Restaurant
Another, more traditional, treat for your dad this Father’s Day would be to book a table at his favourite restaurant for just the two of you.
Alternatively, for a more relaxed occasion, if you consider yourself to be more than handy with a cookbook, you could cook him a meal at home. Food is a great way to bring two people together and you can plan to make new memories in the future and reminisce about good times in the past over a delicious and homecooked meal.
3. Spend Time Choosing the Perfect Present
Naturally when looking for Christmas gifts for him, you’ll want to look for something a little more special than your average pair of socks or toiletry set, so make sure you start looking for the perfect present for your dad as early as you can.
Instead of going for a more generic gift, alternatively, you could choose to compile a hamper of handpicked favourite things, from locally sourced chutneys and cheeses to decadent chocolate truffles.
4. Arrange a Spa Day
The fourth and final suggestion for a sentimental and thoughtful way to show your cherished father just how much he means to you is to book him a spa day.
Gone are the days when spa days and pampering sessions were exclusively reserved for the female of the species and even though it’s possible that your dad isn’t overly keen on the thought of a manicure and pedicure, there are numerous treatments that he’ll enjoy and benefit from.
From deep tissue massages for the back, neck, and shoulders, to a full body thermal experience, think outside the box this year and treat your dad to a fabulous spa package, to either enjoy by himself or with his significant other.
