At a loss for Fathers Day gift ideas? Why not shower Dad
with an intangible present that can't be wrapped but is sure to please? This
Father's Day, give the gift of time. Instead of presenting Dad with yet another
tie or dress shirt, Moms, sons and daughters can give quality time. Most busy
blue and white collar workers either don't make or take time for leisurely
activities. Handmade coupons redeemable for one hour, two hours, or an entire
weekend of fun in the sun or a shady hammock are unique presents that keep on
giving. Dad can use the coupons for whatever he wants: an extra hour sleeping
in on the weekends, a whole eight hours to go fishing, or three or four hours
to take Mom out for a romantic dinner. But in order to make the timely coupons
work, kids need to volunteer to do Dad's chores around the house. Busy Dads
will love redeeming kids' coupons for cutting the grass, taking out the trash,
or washing the car, all without asking.
Traditionally celebrated on the third Sunday in June,
Father's Day is a perfect way to say, I love you. Contrary to New Age ideology,
men play a significant role in the traditional family unit. While Moms may
nurture and coddle, Dads help children develop into mentally and emotionally
secure young adults. The guidance and instruction Dads give is invaluable in
helping children become wholesome, well adjusted and productive members of
society. Proverbs 4:1-4 shares insight about the value of a father's guidance:
"Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know
understanding. For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law. For I was
my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother. He taught
me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my
commandments, and live." Fathers Day gift ideas offer unique ways to
express appreciation for Dads who invest time, love and effort in helping to
raise children.
