Full English breakfast
If he's a man who loves a full English breakfast, well, this is your answer - cook him a lovely breakfast. If not full English, then anything else he likes - smoothies, avocado on toast, croissants, bagels, pancakes. Can't be a better way to start the day.
Go for a long walk
Go for a stroll with the family at one of the North East's wonderful beaches, along Newcastle's Quayside or at any one of our region's beautiful parks. And have a nice chat along the way.
Have an afternoon of gaming
If video games are his thing, then bring out the consoles and spend a few hours playing his favourite games. This will also work for board or card games.
Cook a meal together
This is perfect for dads who like to cook. Bring out a recipe book, dad can choose what to make and everyone can get involved in cooking a scrumptious meal. Get any little ones in the house to help out.
Go for a picnic
This one is a lovely idea if the weather is good. Pack some food and drinks and head to your favourite picnic spot. Play some football or frisbee before tucking in.
Go on a bike ride together
Whether it's just for a few miles or a long bike ride, get your cycling gear ready and head out with your dad.

Have a garden games tournament
Get your garden games out - whether it's badminton, tennis, bowling or giant Jenga - and stage a tournament.
Help wash his car - then have a water fight
Children will love this one. They can help to wash their father's car before bringing out some water balloons or water guns and have some fun.
Have a movie night or all-day marathon
Pick out his favourite film and curl up in front of the TV with snacks and drinks at hand. Or if he is into a particular series, say Star Wars or Marvel, you can turn it into a mega movie session.
