With Father’s Day approaching, it can be difficult to think of great gifts that are inexpensive. However, you can show the special man in your life that you care by gifting him with something that comes from the heart. The most meaningful gifts don’t have to cost you a fortune. Here is a list of special ideas that are both memorable and free.
DIY Cards/Crafts: Many websites offer a variety of free printables for your child to choose from and customize. They can choose from different card templates as well as award certificates, banners, and much more. You can also find great arts and crafts ideas using items you have at home such as DIY Beer Coasters and Painted Grill Plates.
DIT (Do It Together) Activity Book: A DIT Activity Book is an interactive way to bond with your child and create something memorable together. You can use old family photos as well as activity book templates that include games and puzzles and fill out the book during the day.
Free Meal: Try surprising dad with a homemade Father’s Day brunch. You can prepare his favorite meal or spend some quality time cooking together. If cooking isn’t your thing, there are some restaurants that let fathers eat for free on Father’s Day such as Fogo De Chao Brazilian Steakhouse, Beef O'Brady's, and Spaghetti Warehouse.
Outdoor Activities: Enjoy Father’s Day by doing fun outdoor activities such as going for a hike or planning a fishing trip. You can even visit your local park and play a simple game of catch and toss. Outdoor activities are perfect for bonding and won’t break the bank.
Daddy Duties: Sometimes the best thing you can do for dad is take on some of his daily responsibilities and let him relax. Give him the day off from any housework and volunteer to do some of his daddy duties so he can enjoy his special day in peace.
