There's nothing as special as a relationship between a father and his daughter. Having different father and daughter activities can keep that bond strong, even though you’re a working adult now and have a family of your own, in his eyes, you’re still daddy’s girl. The bond between a father and his daughter is indispensable. To help maintain that bond and gain good experiences and memories with your father, here are some of the best father and daughter bonding date ideas that you can both enjoy!
1. The Great Outdoors

For fathers and girls who love to be outside, pack a bag of essentials (mosquito repellent, sunblock, wet wipes, water, snacks) and go to a nature trail to enjoy nature together. It is a simple and inexpensive activity that will give you plenty of time to have heart to heart talks and get fit at the same time.
2. Go to Concert
It is a fabulous thing when you can bridge a generation gap with similar tastes in music. Regardless of whether it's musical theatre, an orchestra, or a pop/rock concert, there's nothing more fun than tuning into some great music with your father. I think my dad has great taste in music, I share similar music tastes with my father because I grew up listening to his CDs, and that influenced my preferences.
3. Get Some Fish

If you’re the kind of girl who appreciates fishing and being outdoors, bring your father along to your next fishing trip. He will love being a part of something you enjoy. And bonus points for the memory books if either of you (or both!) get to reel in a big catch! How exciting! And it will give you both something to brag about to other relatives.
4. Take a photograph
Have a mini photography shoot together at a nearby park. All you need is your phone camera. Snap away at him, or get a tripod/selfie stick to time shots you can be in together with him. You'll wind up with some beautiful real to life shots to frame up and show case in your home and he will cherish being in the spotlight.
5. Have a Dessert Date
My dad has a sweet tooth and he will never turn down dessert or ice cream. Make a quick date with your father at a frozen yogurt shop or your most loved restaurant to share a sweet treat. The memories you create with him in that precious hour will be equally sweet, or even more so.
Father and daughter dates will give you and your father a chance to bond, unwind, relax and catch up with each other amidst your busy buzzing life. Have a good time with each other and enjoy his company! You will make him a very happy man. And he deserves that.
