How To Celebrate Every Father Figure This Father’s Day

While we all appreciate that just one day in the year isn’t enough to show Dad all the love he deserves, Father’s Day is a great opportunity to go all-in on a day that’s all about him. And father figures come in many forms, so don't forget the stepdads, mentors and coaches in your life too. Here are just a few ideas of how you could celebrate such an important person in your life:

Try something new together

At Nixplay, we’re big believers in the importance of making new memories, so why not arrange to do something completely different together this year? You could try a walk you’ve never been on, a new cultural experience, or a cuisine you’ve both been wanting to try for ages. It’s a surefire way of creating new memories, and new photos for his Nixplay frame.


Get outdoors

If you can, getting outside is always a great way to spend a Sunday. Be adventurous with a hike, have fun with some sport in the park, chill out by a fishing lake, or take it easy with a backyard BBQ. Whatever you choose, June’s usually a great time to make outdoor plans. It doesn’t need to cost anything, and it’s easy to include other loved ones too. Just remember to take lots of photos and videos while you’re out and about, to load to your Nixplay digital frame later.

(If the weather turns, fear not - you can always settle in to watch his preferred sport on TV!)


Food is always a winner

Who doesn’t love a great meal? Cook up a favourite lunch, bake a cake, or treat him to a restaurant feast. It’s a brilliant, relaxed way to spend time together, hopefully with the opportunity to reminisce about memories that mean the most to both of you. If you’ve cooked, be sure to snap a photo of your amazing efforts and share it instantly to his Nixplay frame as a delicious memento.


Create a Dad slideshow

Make Dad the star of his own show with a NixCast of his greatest moments! You could make it an event - dim the lights and make some popcorn - so that it becomes a great memory all of its own. Share a Nixplay album with loved ones so they can contribute too, then NixCast the album to your TV so that everyone can enjoy the event. Be warned: Dad may expect a red carpet next time.


Clearly, there are as many ways to celebrate Dads as there are father figures themselves, and hopefully this list has got you making your own Father’s Day plans. Wherever you are, and whoever you’re celebrating, remember that with a Nixplay digital frame, you can share and enjoy precious memories with each other all year, beyond this one special day.
