Fathers Day 2025; Things to do with Dad!
Father’s Day is the perfect opportunity to make memories as a family! And what better way to celebrate Dad than with a day out in the great British outdoors? Whether you're planning a seaside escape, a countryside walk, or a relaxed pub lunch, there are so many toddler-friendly things to do across the UK that dads will love too.
With the Doona Car Seat & Stroller or the Liki Trike, your day out becomes that much easier. Both are compact, lightweight, and designed for on-the-go families, perfect for beach trips, pub gardens, and everything in between. Here are our top ideas for Father’s Day days out with kids in the UK.
1. Hit the Beach
From Brighton to Bournemouth, a day at the seaside town is a UK family favourite. Toddlers can ride along the promenade in their Liki Trike, while the Doona Car Seat & Stroller makes transitions from car to pier seamless. Enjoy fish and chips, dip your toes in the sea, and soak up the sunshine. Don’t forget your sunshade extension for extra UV protection!
2. Walks and a Sunday Roast
Plan a scenic family walk followed by a pub lunch, think Cotswolds villages, Lake District trails, or a gentle stroll through your local National Trust park. The Liki Trike is ideal for toddlers who want a bit of independence, while the Doona’s clever design means no faffing at the car park. When it's time to eat, simply fold the Liki and tuck it under the table.
3. Explore a Local Fair or Festival
Check local listings for Father’s Day events, food festivals, or village fêtes near you. These are a brilliant way to keep the whole family entertained, with rides, games, and live music. The Doona and Liki are compact, so you can navigate stalls with ease, and still fit everything in the boot.
4. Park Picnic and Outdoor Play
Sometimes the simplest days are the best. Head to your local park with a picnic, bubbles, and a football. The Doona X is perfect for naps on the go with its two reclining positions for ultimate comfort, while your toddler zooms around safely on their Liki Trike. Look for parks with cafés or ice cream vans for a Father’s Day treat.
5. Scenic Drive with Stop-Offs
Take dad on a scenic road trip through the Peak District, New Forest, or Scottish Highlands, stopping at family-friendly cafés, viewpoints, or farm shops. The Doona makes every stop smooth and fuss-free, while the Liki adds a bit of adventure at each break.
