Celebrating Tall Dads: How to Make the Fathers in Your Life Feel Special

They say "a father is someone you look up to no matter how tall you grow," and that is especially true for the Redwood Tall Outfitters brotherhood. You might be a good foot taller than your dad (or not!), but you'll always admire & learn from him.

Whether you're a tall dad yourself or you have one, we want to celebrate all the tall fathers this Father's Day! Here are a few ideas to make the father's in your life feel special this year:

1. Have a BBQ

What dad doesn't love BBQ? Soak up the summer sun in your backyard, grill some good food, and treat dad to his favorite dinner. This is perfect if you have a large family you need to entertain this Father's Day - just stick everyone outside with some good food, beers, and yard games.

2. Take Him Golfing

If your father likes to golf, Father's Day is the perfect excuse to treat him with a golfing trip. Take the afternoon off and have fun competing on the green! It doubles as a gift and quality time - plus you'll have just as much fun. Can it get better than that?

3. Go Axe-Throwing

Axe-throwing is a blast no matter the occasion, so yet again Father's Day is the perfect excuse to go with your father. Invite a few family members or friends for more fun, or just keep it to you and dad - he'll love it either way.

4. Buy His Favorite Drink

If dad has a favorite drink, surprise him with it on Father's Day! That might look like taking him to the bar for drinks or buying his favorite whiskey brand so he can make his own cocktails at home.

5. Coffee & Conversation

If your dad is one for conversation, the best gift you can give him this Father's Day is just some good old fashioned quality time. Take your father out for coffee and just talk about life - you might underestimate how appreciated quality time with kids will be to your father.

6. Stock His Wardrobe With What He Wants

If your dad is tall, it's likely he has a hard time finding clothes that fit. Treat him to a wardrobe refresh by picking his favorite colors and styles here at Redwood Tall Outfitters. Not sure what he'd like? No problem - just get him a gift card so he can pick his perfect size. Your dad will love all the sweatshirts and tees we have to offer!

7. Go On a Ride

Your dad might like car rides, bike rides - heck, even motorcycle rides! Go with him on Father's Day for some fun bonding time he will love. Research a beautiful trail he hasn't gone on yet for a new adventure, or pick a classic you know he already loves. Either way, he'll feel so appreciated with this thoughtful way to celebrate Father's Day.

8. Wash His Car

Surprise dad by washing his car on Father's Day - back it into the driveway and get scrubbing or steal his keys to get a professional wash. Extra points if you vacuum his seats, clean his mats, and organize whatever he has in his trunk/truck bed.

9. Go Hiking

If dad is an outdoorsman, take him on a hike for Father's Day. Make it one-on-one or a family outing. You can even plan a camping or backpacking trip around it if your father is the adventurous type!

10. Play His Favorite Game

Whether it's a long and serious game of chess (which he will undoubtedly beat you in) or a competitive custom Halo match, take the time to play your dad's favorite game this Father's Day. He will LOVE absolutely crushing you in the competition.

Sure, sometimes a classic Father's Day gift and card do the trick - but let's be honest, what dad really wants is to spend quality time with family. We hope these ideas spark some inspiration to celebrate Father's Day in a unique and meaningful way this year!
