Fathers Day Ideas For Every Kind Of Dad!

Jun 09,2016read

June 19th is the day we celebrate our amazing Dads, so let's look at all of the FUN things you can do across the USA - with every kind of Dad!

Here is our guide for Fathers Day fun - let's go!

Adventurous Dad!

Why not take your Dad to some of the most iconic locations across the USA to have an adventure he won't forget! You could visit the Grand Canyon, take the sky walk, camp at the base or fly over it with a helicopter - a flying start for the day!

Dog Loving Dad!

If your Dad just LOVES those canine creatures, we don't mean you should take him to your local pet store. Take him somewhere to enjoy a fun dog sled ride! Most of the places operate in winter with the snow, but there are some like Dog Sled Rides of Winter Park that offer summer trips in the carts. And the dogs are super cute!

Brave Dad! Boo!

Did we get you? If your Dad is known for his bravery, why not take him somewhere to test that limit. There are a host of really SPOOKY attractions across the US, so why not take Dad on a ghost tour! Places such as Chattanooga Ghost Tours have seen visitors have some spooky encounters, so maybe your Dad will be next!

Theme Park Dad!

There are SO many theme parks in the states, it's almost hard to choose which one to take your Dad to. BUT - if you wanted to give him the BIGGEST thrill of all, Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey has the TALLEST coaster in the country - and it's ridiculous! Kinga Ka will bolt you from 0 to 128mph in 3.5 seconds, and the track reaches 465 ft high. Good luck with that one!

Waterpark Dad! SPLASH!

It is summer after all, which means those water parks will be open and ready for business! Why not take Dad to a super special water park, and enjoy those fun activities together. One of the biggest in the country is Kalahari Indoor and Outdoor Water Park in Michigan, with 125,000 sq ft of lazy rivers, amazing slides and that famous dumping bucket! SUMMER'S HERE!

Safari Dad!

If your Dad has always wanted to go on safari in Africa, you can make his wish come true this Fathers Day by just visiting...well...America! There are a host of safari->Lazy L Safari Park in Texas will be perfect until you can!

Creative Dad!

Get that glue and paint out, because a great idea for Fathers Day is one where you can be creative together. A popular experience for families are the paint it yourself pottery studios, such as Let's Paint in Mississippi where you don't have to make the pottery yourself, you just pick what you want to paint - and then get creative!

History Dad!

America has an incredible history -so why not take your Dad out to a place relevant to his favorite history topics? From museums, to plantation homes, to historic landmarks, there are plenty of sites to explore. You can even visit battlefields like the Battle of Little Bighorn, the site of Custer's Last Stand!

Tourist Dad!

Ah....the tourist Dad. Do you have a Dad who walks around with the camera around his neck, map in hand, ticking off all of the "must see's" in every place you visit? Well, why not take him to somewhere iconic that he has never been - and tick that off his bucket list! How amazing to surprise him with a trip to Mount Rushmore National Memorial?  That would be one happy tourist Dad.

Nature Dad!

When you're blessed with incredible national parks like Great Smoky Mountains National Park, it would be perfect to take your Dad (who loves nature!) out for an adventure! National Parks have beautiful spots to hike, camp, fish, and just enjoy nature - so get out there are celebrate with what Mother Nature created! The perfect way to spend Fathers Day.

Golfing Dad!

Now kids, if your Dad loves golf we don't mean you need to spend the day with his friends on his fancy golf course...not when there are a host of super fun mini golf courses to be enjoyed - and some are just that little bit more challenging! Par-King Skill Golf in Illinois is known for being the WORLD's most unusual golf course, with coasters and roulette wheels, so Golfing Dad will certainly have met his match!

Camping Dad!

The great outdoors is so much fun to explore, and it's so much fun when you can stay overnight and see a whole other side of it. Camping in the USA is so popular, so you can go anywhere and find the perfect camp spot. You can wild camp, or there are set campsites for RVs. Why not bond with your Dad over some s'mores at campsites like Yellowstone's Camping and RV Park, where you are in reach of some incredible places to explore on your weekend away!

Museum Dad!

If your Dad just can't get enough of museums, then you are in luck, because there are SO many incredible museums around the country! Why not spend the day walking around your city, and visiting some of the amazing museums that are on offer, like the City Museum - which has a Ferris Wheel on the roof!

Underground Dad!

Why celebrate Fathers Day ABOVE ground, when you can celebrate it BELOW ground! If you have a Dad who just loves all things caving, and minerals, and gems, then why not celebrate in some of the most beautiful caves in the country - and there are a lot of them - like the Meramec Caverns in Missouri, which also feature a hideout from Jessie James!

Space Dad!

Fathers Day...the final frontier...and a great excuse to take Dad out to some of the most iconic space attractions in the USA! You can spend the day as a family exploring the stars, and the rocket ships, the history of space exploration and maybe even see a launch at the Kennedy Space Center!

Weird Dad!

There are some Dads in America that you can't quite explain, and just like them, there are some attractions in America that you can't explain either! If your Dad is a little on the weird, wonderful and wacky side, why not take him to a place like The Mystery Spot where he might just feel at home!

Off-the-Beaten Track Dad!

Does your Dad love to visit those places that are off the main roads, and really get into the heart of the country? Then why not surprise him with a trip to some of the very cool, and off-the-beaten-track locations that are all across the country? Places like Bodie Ghost Town are fascinating, and a drive through the mountains will get you there!

ENJOY FATHERS DAY!
