Your headline? “Around the World with the World’s Best Dad”. A travel journal is the perfect gift for Dad on Father’s Day!

3. A hobby journal

What does your dad do in his spare time? Maybe he’s super athletic and loves to cycle, run, swim or play football? Or maybe he’s a real sports nut and has bought season tickets to his favourite basketball team? Or perhaps he prefers doing cultural activities, like going to food festivals, the cinema, or the theatre? ...Why not make a newspaper that’s entirely dedicated to what makes Dad happy? No doubt he would love it if you were to share some fun photo’s, anecdotes, or stories about him!

4. A childhood journal

Admit it, what’s better than discovering old childhood photographs? Take a trip down memory lane as Dad recounts the good old days. Create a timeline highlighting the key milestones of Dad’s childhood: his mischievous antics at school, his first girlfriend, his school dance, his old football team, and so much more! Let Dad revel in the spotlight as he takes centre stage in your Father’s Day newspaper. He’ll absolutely love it!
