Other Ideas
Let dad have the morning to rest or even sleep in! Followed by breakfast in bed. Maybe put that honey due list on hold for the weekend! A few other activities you could enjoy as a family could be a backyard baseball game or at a local field, invite the family over for a family game board day, or head out for a family game of miniature golf.
Questions about Dad
This is such a cute idea and dad will love it! Ask your kids the questions below and record their answers. You can compile a short video together using an app like inshot see a short clip of mine below! If you cant do a video then you can still write out the kid’s responses!
- How old is dad?
- What does your dad do for work?
- What does dad like to wear?
- Your favorite food dad makes you?
- What is your favorite thing to do with dad?
- What is something dad always says?
- Why do you love your dad?
Quality Time
Whatever you decide on for fathers day in Reno, I hope you get to focus on some quality time together as a family. I have learned that these days are just as special to the kids as they are to the parent we are celebrating.
