Here are some ways to celebrate Father’s Day with your dad this year.

Go Wild at Zoo Miami

Bring Dad for a zoo-wide adventure with parrot and giraffe feedings, river boat rides, playgrounds and water play areas, and hundreds of animals. Rent a Safari Cycle before arriving to make exploring Florida’s largest zoo even easier. Zoo Miami, 12400 SW 152nd St., Miami. Call 305-251-0400 or visit http://www.zoomiami.org.

Dad’s Day Out at Bonnet House

Fun at Flamingo Gardens

Spend some together time venturing through the beautiful botanical gardens and viewing native wildlife, including alligators, bear, bobcats, eagles, otters, panthers, peacocks, and of course, flamingos. Visitors are required to purchase an online ticket for a specific time slot in advance. Flamingo Gardens is at 3750 S. Flamingo Road, Davie.

Get Crafty

Origami Paper Crane

Paper cranes are said to bring good fortune. You can either learn to fold them up with Dad, or surprise him by making a bunch and then hanging them around the house. The Miami-Dade Library System has a video tutorial posted at https://youtu.be/pVgsQKWrX0o. 

Spa-Tastic Science

Have an at-home spa day with Dad by making your own products, including a face scrub, body butter, bath bomb and body scrub. You can add his favorite colors and scents to the mix, and follow along with a step-by-step video. Then have a pamper party to complete the day.
