Whether it’s your Dad, Grandad, Daddy, Father-in-law, StepDad, husband, partner or a special father figure, Father’s Day on Sunday 19th June is the day to celebrate these wonderful men. We’re cooking dinner for my Dad as a treat but no matter how good dinner is, he’ll still proclaim that our roast potatoes aren’t as good as his! His roasters are famous around Balbriggan (according to him anyways!) Need some gift inspiration for the Dads? We can help….For guys who like sweets, the retro sweet hamper from Hampers & Co, a Clontarf based company is only €12. They also have Movie night in , Gourmet Wine, Fancy Cheese, Craft Beer and our favourite, The Dude hamper! Use promo code Mums12 for 12% off any of their cool hampers. If your Dad likes to exercise or is fond of casual wear, Irish brand Gym+Coffee, have cool shorts, t-shirts, hoodies etc. They’re super comfy and come in a wide range of colours. Thinking of getting him a gift voucher? Best Menswear is ideal. They have a great range of clothing from casual to smart. My husband is a big fan, so we’ll definitely be going there! If you prefer to pick him up a gift, Dealz have lots of goodies from only €1.50. If he loves Gadgets and gizmos, Hoco and Gadget Geek in Ilac SC are brill. And of course, there’s the LFC store for Liverpool fans! Check out mams.ie for gift giveaways, like hampers and Spotlight Oral Care gift sets. June is also time for summer camps. If your child is starting secondary school in September or going into 2nd or 3rd year, we highly recommend a new, clever and innovative summer camp called ‘Inside Out’. This fun camp includes a balance of physical, mental and creative challenges to help prepare kids for secondary school, particularly the emotional challenges they will face there. Ideal for 12-14 year olds, this camp is being hosted in the gorgeous, lush grounds of Gormanston Park. Places are limited, to register your interest, please go to insideoutcamps.ie/register/ It’s wonderful to see Inside Out camps taking a proactive approach to mental health, as these children navigate the stresses of school and today’s fast paced, social media laden, over whelming world. For more Father’s Day ideas and information on summer camps, please visit mams.ie . Shortlisted for Golden Spider Award & Infant & Maternity Award.
