Father’s Day is just around the corner, and I’m sure you’re looking for ways to make it super special this year. I know being stuck at home due to the pandemic is a total bummer, but it’s not going to dampen our spirits! There are so many different ways in which we can celebrate and make something special for daddy dearest. Here are some interesting ideas for Father’s Day 2020 in quarantine.
1. Plan a lavish Father’s Day dinner
We all know about our dad’s favourite dishes! Put in all your ideas together and plan three-course meals. Go all out with appetisers, a delicious main course, and desserts. You can even plan drinks, and have a great party at home with your parents.
2. Go back to the good old days with handmade Father’s Day cards
Weren’t handmade cards always the most special part of a celebration when we were kids? We had so much fun making them, and our parents loved and cherished them. Check out this tutorial to make a special card for your dad.
3. Have an at-home wine tasting event
Bring out the best wines from your collection and have a wine tasting event with your dad. You can even turn it into a fun quiz game of who guesses the ingredients best. We suggest stocking up with a few different kinds of wines to make it interesting.

10. Learn a craft from your dad
Dads are full of hidden talents, and there’s no better person to learn a few hobbies from. My dad, for example, started making decorative bowls out of recycled newspaper and cement. Wouldn’t it be super cool to learn something like that and make a fun Father’s Day activity out of it?
