How to Pick the Right Father's Day Card |
If handmaking your own cards is not your thing, here's some suggestions.
Do you ever wonder if the card you've chosen is right? With Father's Day around the corner, here's an easy way to make the perfect selection.
Before you go card shopping, ask yourself: What kind of dad is he?
Comedian
He's the king of silly and you love him for it.
Best choice: Get him a card that reflects his specific type of humour. Is he more Homer Simpson or Scooby-Doo?
Big softie
Your dad's never been shy about telling you how much he loves you.
Best choice: Reciprocate his feelings. Choose a card that expresses your feelings for him.
Social advocate
Dad's your hero. He's living proof that one person can help make the world a better place.
Best choice: Get a card that makes a difference, like a Hallmark (RED) card - a portion of the sales goes to fight AIDS in Africa.
Movie buff
He memorizes movie credits and quotes his favourite scenes.
Best choice: A card with a movie quote is your best bet. Something like, "I am your father" from Star Wars is perfect.
Sports fan
Frankly, he's a tad obsessed.
Best choice: From fishing to golf, there's a card for most sports. There's even a music card that plays the opening theme of Monday Night Football.
Music lover
He loves you, but his record collection is his pride and joy.
Best choice: Pick a card that plays a tune. These days, there's lots to choose from, including Smashmouth, Lynrd Skynrd and Johnny Cash.
