How To Celebrate Father’s Day

Whether you’re within walking distance of your family or haven’t seen them in a while because you live far away, Father’s Day is a great reminder to show gratitude to the amazing man who guides you through life. Fathers come in all shapes and sizes and it doesn’t matter if he raised you from day one, barely saw you because he worked long hours to support your family, or you found him later on in life — celebrate the father figure who guides and supports you through it all on this special day.

In the lucky case that you are living with or close to the man you refer to as “dad”, you can spoil him with a delicious, hearty brunch and plan a full day of fun for him. Think about something he really loves and make a day of it. Is your dad a sports nut? Prepare some snacks, cold drinks, and let him yell at the TV all day, cheering on his favorite team. Does your father like to spend time outside? Plan a picnic in the park or your own backyard or take him for a hike. The father figure in your life enjoys nothing more than a quiet day? Just hang out and read or maybe pick an audiobook that you can listen to together. And for all the exhausted new daddies, give them a day off of baby duty and let them hang out with their buddies.

Regardless of how near or far you live to this amazing man, a thoughtful, personalized Father’s Day card is the perfect way of expressing your love and gratitude to him. If you need some inspiration to put your feelings into words, you can find the perfect Father’s Day message, quote or joke to write in a card or letter here.
