Fellow fathers would probably agree that the most enjoyable gift is spending time with your children. I don’t need a tie or socks (please), but I do appreciate hanging out with my kids and having fun.

I took my family to Old World Wisconsin a couple of years ago and they loved it! It was very interesting to see how differently people in Wisconsin lived just a couple hundred years ago.
