Category General
Father's Day is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than by spending quality time with your dad in the comfort of your own home? We've compiled a list of five enjoyable things to do at home over the coming long weekend for Father's Day.
Braai is always a good idea:
Treat your dad to a feast while he takes a backseat for the day and gets spoiled. Get creative with marinades and spice rubs, and try out new recipes together. Don't forget to prepare his favourite side dishes and end the meal with a delicious homemade dessert.
PS - watch our Instagram page for a yummy braai pie recipe :) perfect for the little ones to take part in.
Family game challenge:
Gather the family for a day or evening of friendly competition with a family game challenge. Choose your favourite board, card, or video game to suit everyone's preferences. Playing games provides entertainment, encourages bonding, and creates lasting memories. Let your dad choose his favourite game or introduce him to a new one for added excitement.
Family cooking experiment:
If your dad has a passion for cooking or baking, spend the long weekend experimenting with new recipes together. Make it a challenge between teams or just enjoy it together. Select a theme, such as trying out various international cuisines or attempting to recreate his favourite restaurant dishes. Explore new flavours, sharpen your culinary skills, and enjoy the delicious results. The joy of cooking and sharing a meal with loved ones is a fantastic way to celebrate Father's Day.
Home cinema movie marathon:
Transform your living room into a cosy movie theatre by creating a DIY home cinema experience. Build a fort or make a Christmas bed in front of the TV. Pop some popcorn, grab your dad's favourite snacks, and select a collection of his favourite films. Spend the day indulging in a movie marathon and spend quality time together.
Get creative with arts:
Unleash your creative side by organising a family arts and crafts session. Engage in activities such as painting, pottery, or even making personalised cards or gifts for Father's Day. Tap into your dad's artistic talents and encourage him to showcase his creativity alongside yours. The process of creating something together will not only be enjoyable but will also leave you with unique keepsakes to cherish for years to come.
Remember it is easy to involve the little ones to help mom or another grown-up in the activities above they will have tons of fun and that is the ultimate gift for any dad. Making this Father's Day a happy one from the comfort of your own home can be easily executed however if you are not a homebody there are plenty of other activities in our surrounding areas from wine farms to lovely restaurants. At the end of the day, it's just about the bond you are forming, and remember, the most important thing is to spend quality time together, showing your appreciation and love for the special dad in your life.
