Create a Photo Album
Picture this - it’s Father’s Day morning, and you’re all rugged up in bed waiting for morning cuddles from your kids. They run into your bedroom, full of excitement to celebrate their very special role model- you. They pass you a large box and inside is a beautiful hardcase photo album. As you open the album, you see glossy pages filled with all your beautiful moments shared as a family. From birthday celebrations, holidays and the everyday things that made a big impact. Instantly, you become filled with nostalgia. Would this make you feel special and spoiled? Even though it’s a simple gift, it’s probably the most timeless and underrated gift of all time.
Photo albums can be easily designed the traditional way- printing and sticking photos in a scrapbook or into an album with clear sleeves. You can even create a photo album online, design the layout and have it printed just the way you want it.
Family Photoshoot
Family photoshoots are a fun way to bring the family together. It’s a great way to capture and make new memories. Family portraits make great gifts for dad and very special gifts for grandad. Whether it’s taking a new family photo or framing an existing one, this is sure to bring a smile this Father’s Day.

Backyard Picnic

If you are restricted to celebrating at home this Father’s Day, you can take the celebrations outside and enjoy the sunshine with a backyard picnic. There’s usually a bit of preparation that goes into having a picnic. But if you’re doing if from home, rest assure that if you forget something you can go back in the house and get it.
Start by adding some blankets or even some pillows to sit on. You can always set up on the glass or even put a low table to put your food on. On that note, you will need lots of food to keep the family happy. Finger foods are usually crowd pleasers like sandwiches, chopped fruit and grazing platters. And don’t forget those napkins for the messy eaters. Dress up your backyard picnic with accents like flowers, tableware and even herbs to enhance your sensory components.
If your able to leave the house and take your picnic to a public space, set up your picnic at a nice park to change the scenery.
Don’t have much space outside? Bring the picnic indoors. You can apply the same picnic from the comfort of your living room with a few tweaks.
