They say necessity is the mother invention, but we offer this other saying: crisis is the mother of innovation. And the current global health crisis flung upon us has given birth to various ways to live life as usual—albeit, with a bit of tweaks.
This year’s Father’s Day, much like other past occasions, will go on urging us to look for options to celebrate them while at home, perhaps also, with limited resources.
If dad doesn’t feel like going out to eat yet, a local LPG brand shares these Father’s Day celebration ideas.
Host a surprise virtual party with his buddies
Dads also need to socialize with their friends; throw him a virtual surprise party. How to organize an e-numan session? Arrange for packs of drinks and pica-pica to be delivered to his friends’ houses and along with an invite indicating the time and log-in details for the online surprise party. Tell guests to sign in a little later than your dad for added surprise.
Build something together
Does dad enjoy building things? This Father’s Day, join him and suggest to make something together like a birdhouse or plant box. If the kids are too young to use the tools, bring out the paintbrushes and let them decorate the DIY projects.
Grow a garden
For a refreshing bonding activity that also provides the household with essential supply, invite dad and other family members to work on a gardening project together. The plants can add a breath of fresh air to the home or, should dad prefer to grow vegetables and fruits, can be used for future meals.
Go glamping indoors
Here’s something fun for a family with young children: Set up a big mat with pillows, blankets, or beanie bags in the living room where the entire family can comfortably huddle together for a night of bonding. Prepare s’mores, hotdogs on sticks, and other yummy snacks for that authentic camping feel. Watch a movie together, for that drive-in theater effect.
