Don't Forget Dad!

This time of year, there are elementary and middle school promotion ceremonies, high school and college graduations.  You know what that means...Father's Day is looming on the horizon!  That's right.  This Sunday, the 17th day of June in the year 2018.  We remembered mom in May, so we can't forget about dad in June.

Just as with mom, you probably want to start with a card.  And wouldn't a homemade card made by you with tender loving care help make dad's day?  Check out DIY Projects or The Spruce Crafts for different ideas on cards that are both creative and easy to make.

Flowers may be the way to mom's heart, but food is definitely the way to dad's.  Is he into nuts and chips?  How about barbecues and sodas?  Or does he like coffees and wines?  Country Living and Community Table have some good food ideas for dad that you can buy or cook yourself.

Naturally, you can always opt for a more classic gift for Father's Day.  See the suggestions of AskMen and Money Crashers for gift ideas dad will appreciate.  Younger kids can make some special gifts for dad with the help of Good Housekeeping or Dodo Burd.

Keep in mind that although gifts are great, the best thing you can give your dad is YOU.  Spend some time with him doing something fun you both enjoy.

Wishing everyone a Happy Father's Day from the perch.
