It is true that the best gifts are the ones that are sincere and
unexpensive, most of the best things in life are so simple but so important for
the well being such as air, sun and time... and most importantly they are
FREE.
Since
we are talking about a celebration as Father's Day we always want to go beyond
to show that person we love them and we thought of them but then again what to
give to a man who has everything he wants? With mother's is more simple like
flowers or cards but with fathers it can be tricky sometimes.
For
Fathers Day We can also keep it simple, it doesn't always need to be a hassle,
many times we don't realize that men are simpler than women. Always go for what
they like but then again if you have given something they like in yrs prior how
many times can you repeat this over and over right? so here are some
inexpensive and thoughtful ideas for father's day.
Make
a Coupon Book. Maybe there are many things he would like to do with his
time but since hes taking care of other things he really doesnt find time to.
Think
about giving him maybe 10-15 coupons offering your services or activities maybe
he does need a partner in crime. They can include maybe washing the car, going
to the movies w him, going to eat steak, or even giving him 1-2 hrs free while
you are doing something for him so he can watch some T.V. This is easy and you
get to realize and get to know your father better, the list of things can be
wide.
Homemade Treats: Tasty home-baked goods make fool-proof gifts.
Whip up a cobbler or pie with
luscious local summer fruit. If your dad is trying to eat more healthfully,
encourage him by preparing a recipe
that incorporates whole grains and goes easy on the sugar. For a more
long-lasting gift, prepare some pickles or a homemade jam .
Old Photos Can Be Fun (and Embarrassing). Surely
in a closet somewhere are some old photos of the family at play. Find the box
(or boxes) and bring them out on Father's Day. Pass them around and ask Dad
what he remembers about the experience in the photo. This is guaranteed to
generate both laughs and tears. And it will help you connect with the "old
man." And remember, no snickers about his hair, his clothes, or those
funky sideburns!
Beyond the Gym: Many
dad-types I know are constantly trying to stay in shape or shape up. Why not
turn introduce your dad to a new form of exercise? Trying a new form of
physical activity can be deeply rewarding, even if it doesn't 'stick' or become
your dad's go-to work-out. It's kind of like eating cereal with your
non-dominant hand -- a great way to engage your brain. You could set your dad
up with a private lesson at a his local yoga studio or a pack of beginner's
classes or even an instructional dvd. He might be particularly tickled if the
sport in question sounds somewhat obscure -- like gyrotonic or tai chi. If
those sounds a bit posh for your dad's taste maybe give him a badminton or petanque set instead.
Long Distance. If
you aren't at home or near enough to make a personal visit on Father's Day,
consider some ways to narrow the distance. Instead of a card, how about a
letter sharing your feelings and memories about your dad? Could you make a
picture collage of some of your favorite dad times? How about a long and chatty
phone call? You can still give of yourself, even if the miles and the time
zones might separate you.
