Fathers are special, and there's no doubt about that. They play an important role in bringing children to this world. However, they're not as celebrated as they should. While days celebrating mothers and women are full of hype and recognition, the ones celebrating fathers often pass without much notice.

Making Father's Day Special

You can change the narrative in your house this Father's Day. After all, he's a husband and a father of the children. He deserves to feel special. Here are a few tips to help make Father's Day feel special for your husband:

1. Start The Day On The Right Note

You can start by letting him sleep a little longer. Ask him what time he'd like to wake up the night before. In this way, you can ensure there are minimal disturbances and noise in the morning, so he enjoys his sleep the best possible. As he sleeps, make him breakfast. A good breakfast is an excellent way to start the day off.

Guys love good food, and if it's specially made in their honor, it makes it even better. Every husband would love to be woken up by the delicious smell of bacon or coffee brewing in the kitchen. Whatever he loves for breakfast and however he likes it, make it happen.

Set the day up for him and have the Sunday paper for when he wants to read it. Let your man feel important from when he steps out of bed. 

2. Surprise Him With Flowers Or Plants

For many, flowers aren't a typical gift for a man. It doesn't seem too masculine, but apart from giving him practical gifts like golf clubs, watches, and ties, you can give him a fun gift this time. Remember, Father's Day is a celebration and a happy occasion. It should be your main focus of the day.

However, if you're a bit skeptical about giving him a banquet or a flower arrangement, what about Father's Day plants? Most men don't like throwing things away, and they may feel bad having to throw fresh flowers a few days after the celebration. A plant can last for as long as it's taken care of.

3. Fill His Tank And Give His Car A Spruce

Take his car and have it washed thoroughly. Because cleaning the auto isn't something you probably do often, it makes your effort unique. Another way would be for you and the children to wash the car, so it's ready by the time he wants to head out.


If you know a specific issue his car has such as worn-out seats or a mechanical problem, get him a set of seat covers or take the car to his mechanic and pay for it. In addition, if you haven't found the perfect gift yet, get him car accessories or gadgets such as:

  • Dashboard cell phone holder
  • A dashcam
  • A roof rack or a bike rack depending
  • A car cover for all-weather
  • Glove box organizer

 

4. Have The Children Praise Their Dad

Because it's Father's Day, one of the most significant persons as well are the children he loves and cares for. The best way to do this is to record the children saying good things about him and what he means to them. Let them also answer questions about their dad such as what he likes or doesn't like. This will make him know his children are attentive to the person he is.

While at it, also record yourself praising him for being a great partner in raising the children. Let him know the children appreciate the sacrifices he's made for the family, that he's an excellent father and husband. Remind him of the memorable times you have that are extra special for you and the children.
