Father’s Day is just a few weeks away! While we like to appreciate our dads all year-round, Father’s Day is an extra special time to show them how much we care. This year we got a head start, so you don’t have to — take a look at our 5 favorite Father’s Day ideas below. Be sure to share your own tips and tricks with us, too!
5 Ways to Get Father’s Day Ready in a Flash
1. Gift the grill master: Father’s Day is also the first day of summer this year so get those grills fired up! Store-bought seasonings are often loaded with sodium and questionable additives like anti-clumping agents (gross!), so make dad his own special blend instead. It only takes a few minutes to mix up a DIY batch, and it’s infinitely more fun. The combo we’ve come up with goes great with anything from steak to tofu so it’s suitable for any diet! Try it out for yourself or feel free to experiment with your own favorite flavors.
2. Freshen up: Keep dad squeaky clean and smelling great with a DIY grooming kit. Gather up some essentials like bar soap, deodorant, shave oil, or whatever else the man of the house may need. Make it extra special with this free printable — dad will dig it!
3. Skip the guessing game: Shop easier this year and check out the Friday Finds archive for a father-approved gift list by founder Christopher Gavigan. From outdoor gear to stylish (and sustainable) swag, we’ve got ideas to suit any dad.
4. Get creative with coupons: Handmade coupons are a classic, not to mention cost-free! Have a craft time with the kids and brainstorm what you think dad would like best. Car wash, dish duty, breakfast in bed… the options are both endless and easy to execute.
5. Treat your(dad): Let the kids plan a “date” for dad’s day. Kids love when they get to take the lead so the hard part here won’t be thinking of fun ideas, but keeping them all a secret until the big day! Don’t think you need to spend a lot of money to make it special — here are 5 kid dates ideas that don’t cost anything at all.
