Painting classes can be booked last minute as digital gift vouchers, and many studios offer flexible dates so Dad can pick a time that works for him. Plus, it’s a calm, mindful activity, perfect for some downtime away from screens.

5. Cooking classes for the Dad who loves to eat (and cook)!

If Dad’s the king of the kitchen or just enjoys good food, cooking classes make excellent, easy Father’s Day gifts. From mastering BBQ techniques to diving into international cuisines like Italian or Thai, these experiences turn dinner into an event. Plus, with many classes sending recipes before or after the event, Dad can recreate his new dishes for family dinners. Bonus points: you might even get a delicious meal out of it!
