Hardworking, brave and always there for you. It’s Super-dad! He might not wear a superhero mask or a cape but he tells super funny jokes, banishes scary monsters at bedtime and will always have your back when you need him most.

We all think our dads are the best so we’ve come up with some awesome ideas to help make him feel like the superhero he is this Fathers Day.

SUNDAY NIGHT AT THE MOVIES

Need suggestions for movie night that dad will love too? Here is our top three family-friendly choices that you can stream this Father’s Day on Netflix:

1. Fatherhood: A widowed new dad copes with doubts, fears, heartache and dirty diapers as he sets out to raise his daughter on his own. Inspired by a true story.
2. Boy: An 11-year-old boy and his younger brother see their rich fantasy lives stopped cold when their father returns home after years away.
3. The Pursuit of Happiness: When Chris and his son are evicted, they face trying times as a desperate Chris accepts an unpaid internship at a stock brokerage firm.

These 'father-figure' choices are sure to make Dad smile, laugh and maybe tear up a little.

CHECK-MATE 

Classic board games are always fun without breaking the bank account. Why not test your dad’s strategic skills with a round of tournament style chess. Don't have a chess set you say? Get your FREE CHESS SET - Valid for only 50 people when you shop our MEGA BUNDLE offer Spoil him by stocking up his sock drawer for the whole year.
