Things for a wife to do on father's day are special and
celebratory of the fact that this man is your husband and the father of your
kids. So, if you are ready, here are some of the many gifts that don't come
in a box!
No, we're not talking about
picking up the dry cleaning or filling the dishwasher. That “To Do” list
will just have to wait for another day. Things that you can for the man in
your life that are special and celebratory without costing a dine. So,
here are some of the many things to do for him for the man in your life:
Provide him with some unexpected “mad money” to spend on himself – Believe
it or not, he may put off buying little things he wants for the good
of the family. So, giving him some money specifically for buying, or
spending on, what he wants will be a great treat. He can feel okay about
buying that new pair of khakis or the DVD he’s wanted for months.
Have him plan a “night on the town” that you pay for! – Most times when
couples enjoy a “date night”, the wife does the choosing of the restaurant
and movie. This time let the man in your life make all the decisions and
treat him to it all!
Surprise him with a vacation day – plan an outing to the beach, the park or
a nearby zoo! Then, contact your his boss and tell the boss that your guy will be
taking Friday or Monday off!
Go get his car, truck or SUV cleaned and waxed – add an oil change for a
total vehicle make-over. Since the men of the house are normally the ones
responsible for car maintenance, this will not only be a surprise, but a
truly appreciated gift.
Send him off for a weekend – Send him to a men’s retreat or
spa visit where he can relax
and rejuvenate, or out a
sporting event with friends.
Give him some “alone time” – Set aside a whole day that him can do as he
pleases. Send him off to
play golf, putter in
the garden, or have an all day
poker or game party with his
friends. Let him know you can all hold down the fort while he enjoys
himself.
Send the kids to grandma and grandpa for the day and prepare a candlelight
dinner, followed by cuddling on the couch in front of your favorite movie,
followed by a romantic rendezvous.
The options for box-less gifts on the man in your life are limitless. Just ask your
husband, partner, father, or friend what you can do to make his special day
the best day of the year.
