An article published in the Daily Business Journal written by Rebecca Palmer discusses how single fathers can create meaningful and enjoyable experiences for Father’s Day with their children, while balancing the responsibilities of being a single parent. She advises engaging in activities together that both the parent and the children enjoy, be it a pizza party or a hike. You can also schedule nontraditional bonding activities in honor of the special day.

“Another approach is incorporating traditions or hobbies, especially by teaching your children a skill or talent that might have been passed on to you by your father,” Palmer writes. “Whether it’s a day dedicated to a favorite sport, a BBQ session, or an afternoon spent doing an outdoor activity, aligning the celebrations with your passions adds a personal and meaningful dimension to the day.”

“Father’s Day is about celebrating the unique and irreplaceable bond between you and your child,” writes Palmer. “It is within your power to create a day of fun activities and happy memories that will be cherished for years to come.”
