You can give your dad a kiss on the cheek any day; how about spectacular Father’s Day gift baskets packed full with his favorite things this year? Besides your mom, he is the one person who has seen you in the good, the bad and the ugly- and loving you through it all. If anyone deserves some attention and TLC, it’s the big man of the house and you know it.

Personally, I find that gift giving offers one great advantage-it allows you to make the recipient try something he wouldn’t necessarily like doing. If you prepare beautifully done and sweetly given healthy gift baskets, your dad will have no choice but to partake of it. It sounds a little scheming, but having a healthy dad is worth whatever it takes. You can give him some of those delicious fresh fruit baskets to take the place of the greasy bacon and fries he usually consumes.

Alright, fresh fruit gift baskets might be a little too much for your dad-if tears show up; they should be tears of happiness not of annoyance. Still, all is not lost. Give him a healthy care basket with relatively healthy, tastier food. Pack a wicker basket with a loaf of whole wheat bread, some sausages, grapes and a bottle or two of beer. Take him out to a picnic lunch date and have a blast reminiscing about his old days, childhood memories and memorable milestones in your family’s life.

What hobby does your dad take pleasure in the most? Work around this particular theme in your gift basket. Perhaps its golf. Trim a big basket with synthetic grass garlands and put in golf paraphernalia like pens, magazines, wall paper, etc. The more creative the better. If your budget will allow it, but an umbrella and have it printed out with his name and some silly message. When he uses it as he makes his rounds across the course, he will remember you.

Isn’t it great that parents love us no matter what so our love for them is not measured by the amount of the gifts we give them right? It’s no excuse not to give the best that we are currently able to give; but it does make DIY gift baskets extra special not just to them but to us as well.

Is your dad a fan of a particular sound? Put together a collection of songs and bands that play his genre of music. If he is a movie guy, then download his favorite movies and videos if possible. How about giving him a bouquet of sweet smelling corndogs dressed in mustard. Use your imagination, a good laugh is a great gift to give.

Today we give special attention to the hero that needs no special mention, at least for him-our dad. He always provided and cared for us beyond what was expected of him; it’s your chance to show your appreciation with beautiful Father’s Day gift baskets that express your love.
