Not to throw your weekend TV marathon plans outta whack, but Sunday is Father’s Day. Don’t stress. We've got a butt-load of ideas that are low-cost, thoughtful, and good for both Dad and the world.
- Sign up [1] for DoSomething.org's I <3 Dad and have your dad get his blood pressure tested.
- Take him out to the ball game. (It's better in real life than on TV.)
- Organize a family sports game. Make it Dads vs. Kids, with the winners getting this week's right to the remote control.
- Cook a meal. (Mom will appreciate this one too.)
- Volunteer. [2]Ideas include [2] local soup kitchen, homeless shelter, or nursing home and help others in need.
- Spring cleaning take 2. Find things around the house you guys can donate.
- Break out the tools and green your home [3].
- Got a green thumb? Buy a bunch of tomato, string bean and cucumber seeds, and plant a vegetable garden.
- Get him a new four-legged best friend. Adopt a dog or cat at your local shelter.
- Go to the beach. Don’t forget to wear sunscreen (Sunburn=pain).
- Take a hike. Go outside and explore your surroundings.
