Father's Day without Dad

Do you know a child who won't be spending Father's Day with Dad?  

What can you do when a child can't be with Dad on Father's day? 

It's often hard for the adults to know quite what to do.  We've put together a page with some ideas for children who can't be with Dad on Father's Day.  

The most important thing to remember is that it really should be up to the kids to decide how they want to spend the day.  Sometimes they want to celebrate just like Dad was there, and then tell him all about it when they see him.  Or sometimes they want to pick a bunch of movies to watch so they don't have to answer strangers who ask "Where's your Dad today?".  

Let us know if your family has some interesting ideas to add to this list.
