A “yes day” for dad: Making Plans For Fathers Day
There has been a film recently released on Netflix called Yes day. This is where the parents in the film have to say yes to everything their children say. There is some psychology around it and some rules, but you could give your partner the chance for their very own yes day.
This would be the day that you all do what dad wants to do. Whether that is watching football on TV, going to the local pub, or heading out for a walk. His wish will be your command, and it could be great fun for the kids to try and appease his every will.
A BBQ
Who doesn’t love a BBQ? Enjoying one for Father’s day can be an excellent way to spend the afternoon. Your father might love the idea of cooking on the BBQ for everyone, or you could cook things up for him.
It could be the ideal relaxing way to spend some time together in the garden, in the warmth of the summer sun, and enjoying some good food like these YUMMY bacon-wrapped jalapeno poppers!
Make their favorite food
Finally, if they don’t love a BBQ or it isn’t the weather for one, make sure you plan to cook their favorite meal in the evening. Fathers day tends to fall on a Sunday, so it could be the ideal option to create an epic roast dinner the whole family could enjoy.
However, if a roast isn’t something they enjoy, then make an exception and cook what they love. It can be a little gesture that shows someone you care about.
Making Plans For Father’s Day is a great way to show the important dad or dad figure in your life that you love and appreciate them.
It is also a great opportunity to see your father and get together to celebrate dad! Hopefully, this has given you some ideas on how you can enjoy Father’s Day this year.
