GREETINGS!
Can you believe Father’s Day is coming up THIS Sunday?! We’ve got a few ways to help you make it great for that special guy in your life!
Our Father’s Day Yard Displays are so much fun! Tell the world, or at least the neighbors, and get a great reaction from Dad. Go check out the Father’s Day page. Which theme is your favorite?

HAVE DINNER AT HOME
Skip the restaurant scene this year and do something that will be extra special at home.
- Set the table with a theme…play on one of our themed yard displays for extra fun.
- Place a “Reserved” Place Card in the honoree’s spot…take a piece of cardstock paper, fold it in half long-ways & write their name & any special message. They can also make a special place mat with paper.
- Don’t forget silverware & napkins on the table! Look up special ways to fold the napkins (can be paper) into fun shapes.
- If you have kids-have them be the host/hostess, waiter/waitress & chef. They can make a menu on the computer or hand write one. If you have a dry-erase board or chalkboard, write the menu on that.
Be sure to:
- Welcome Honoree
- Offer the menu
- Take the drink order
- Take the meal order
- Optional: Prepare food-depending on age of kiddos
- Bring meal out on plate or set food to the table if serving family-style
- Be sure honoree has everything he needs
- Clear the dishes
- Bring out dessert!
Don’t forget to snap a few photos of the entire process!
