It's time to treat the Dads! Do you know what you will be giving the men in your LDS ward for Father's Day? Does your ward have a yearly tradition? Do you do it every year because it's tradition or because it's what the men really want? Find out the answer from the result of the poll I sent around to the men.
Save it for later, pin it now!
The Ideal
The overwhelming answer was food, preferably something homemade. There were so many different food items requested that not one item won out except the overwhelming category of food. Here are some the top choices though:
Beef jerky
Homemade bread
Brownies
Candy including chocolate
Big cinnamon rolls
Root beer or root beer floats
Homemade pies
Meat- tacos, steak, wings, etc.
The best way to consume the food? During the 3rd hour to enjoy all the treats. The significant difference between men getting together third hour and women? They don't want to do it to socialize- they just want a break. Instead of a lesson third hour, check into an appropriate church movie option and dim the lights. Let them snack and enjoy some down town.
The Next Best Thing
If you can't figure out a way to get all the men together 3rd hour, at least cancel all the other meetings for the day and handout a treat that the men can take home- not an ice cream sandwich that will melt before he has a chance to eat it but a candy bar or cinnamon roll. Cute tags are nice but not necessary.
Your Turn- Do you agree? What do you want for Father's Day?
