This June we\u2019re celebrating all fathers and fatherly figures on Sunday, 21 June. If you don\u2019t have any plans yet, we collected some exciting ideas to treat your dad at home!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Invent new cereals <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If your dad is one for cereal in the morning suggest making your own by either mixing two boxes of cereal like Rice Krispies and Coco Pops and give the mixture your own name like Krispy Pops, who knows this might become a tradition? You could also add additional products like instead of milk, add your favourite ice-cream flavour and maple syrup to the mix or some freshly chopped fruit such as strawberries. If your dad is more of a proper English breakfast type of man, at least make sure that you have a heartwarming card to go with it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DIY Father\u2019s Day gift<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gifts can be bought, yes, but how much more special and appreciative when it\u2019s made with love and your own two hands? There are countless gift ideas, but we\u2019ll provide you with some inspiration-setters. If your dad is fond of fishing and has a sweet tooth, then a DIY fish box is a big yes! Grab a plastic organiser and add some fish-type jelly to it. Maybe you can add a note to it saying \u2018as soon as we\u2019re allowed, we\u2019re going fishing\u2019. If your old man is someone that loves nuts and dried fruit, search your mother\u2019s kitchen for an empty jar, fill it with your father\u2019s favourites and add a relevant ribbon and handmade sticker saying \u2018Dad\u2019s Monster Trail Mix \u2013 from your monsters\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Play backyard games<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When was the last time you played games with your father in the backyard? Can you even remember what the game was? Make your own DIY toss game and play doubles with the rest of the family. You\u2019ll need less than 10 materials which you\u2019ll find in and around the house. Children of all ages can play along, and if dad cheats this time\u2026let it slide.\ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p><strong>Have a braai<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We know how dads are, especially when it comes to braaiing. They know how and there\u2019s a specific way to do it. But instead of your dad braaiing this Sunday, state a friendly threat that if he touches the tongs, he\u2019ll be sweeping the floors for the next month. Make your dad feel special, let him enjoy his favourite drink and make conversation about things you don\u2019t necessarily get to talk about. Yes, he\u2019ll still advise you on how to braai from the side, but that just how they are \u2013 created to steer the boat into a direction. Serve your dad his favourite meat cuts with the side dish he adores.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spend one-on-one time together<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Out of everything you can do for Father\u2019s Day, the most important remains to spend quality one-on-one time with your dad. Whether it\u2019s making dinner together, trying a new dessert recipe such as brownies or making your own fudge. If possible, try and involve your grandfather, as your dad will appreciate the opportunity to spend the day with his children and his father altogether.<\/p>\n<p>Happy Father\u2019s Day, Sandton!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now it\u2019s time for our dads to be spoilt!
