With the confinement due to the coronavirus, this year we have to celebrate a Father’s Day very different from what we are used to in Spain.
But despite the fact that the spirits are not the best and that we cannot leave the house, we can organize a nice day to pay tribute to Dad and have a great time with the family. We give you some ideas so that you can prepare everything.
1) A rich breakfast to start the day
This year we will have more time to prepare a delicious breakfast to surprise Dad and start Father’s Day with good flavor.
You can prepare some homemade muffins, muffins or some pancakes. We propose here seven breakfast recipes to prepare with the little ones and here you have many more breakfast recipes from our colleagues from Directo al Paladar.
2) A craft made by children
It is possible that this year, due to the exceptional situation we are experiencing, there will not be a gift bought for Dad, but what better gift than one made by his children with his own hands?
We suggest more than 50 crafts that can be made with materials that you have at home, from a card to a decorated mug or a picture frame with sticks:

3) A poem for dad
Together, or each one separately, you can write a beautiful poem to express to dad how much you love him . The best thing is that you let your imagination fly, but if you lack ideas, we leave you some poems that we have published in Babies and more in previous years:
- Poems for Father’s Day
- ‘Thanks Dad’
- ‘Are’
- ‘My guide’
- ‘Yesterday and today’
- ‘Like all that’
4) A picnic in the living room
An idea that children will find the most fun is to prepare a picnic. You can place a picnic blanket on the ground, as if you were outdoors, but in the middle of the room. Children can prepare the dishes and decorate the room as if you were in the country, with drawings and some paper garlands.
As for recipes, you can prepare snacks for snacks or delicious sandwiches. Here we leave you 101 picnic recipes.
5) A family play
Children can dress up and you can improvise a small play with all family members participating. Previously, you can create a short script to make it more professional.
6) Family games
Whether they are board games, traditional games of a lifetime, or any activity in which you all participate, the idea is that you have a good time as a family.
We propose you to rescue the games of your childhood that amused you so much as ‘Blind chicken’, ‘The English hideout’, ‘The knot’, ‘To the slipper from behind’, etc.
7) A home theater session
A plan that never disappoints and that is always a good time to put into practice is to organize a home theater session, taking advantage of all the movies available on the main platforms such as Netflix, Movistar, Amazon and HBO.
Lower the blinds, turn up the volume on the television, and enjoy a movie with your kids.
And remember, that although this year Father’s Day is very different , the best gifts for dad are kisses, hugs and being together.
