Father’s Day is approaching, and if you’re struggling to find the perfect gift, you’re not alone.
For me, Father’s Day is bittersweet since my dad passed away around eight years ago. But I always laugh thinking about how one year for Father’s Day, as a joke, I actually gave him the exact same card I had given him the previous year. I wanted to see if he would notice or say anything. He had no clue it was the same card until I revealed the truth! After that, every year he’d joke that it meant double as much the second time around. Clearly, gift ideas for Father’s Day weren’t my strong suit.
But a company I’ve learned about since his passing, and one that Em and I have partnered with over the years, is Storyworth.
Storyworth is a meaningful present that captures and preserves the memories and stories of your loved ones. Each week, your dad or grandpa will receive an email with a question about their life. Their responses are compiled into a beautifully designed book at the end of the year. It’s a great way to create a lasting legacy of cherished stories.
Since my dad’s passing, I’ve done a better job of looking back at his old photos and talking with my mom about stories from when they were younger. But I wish I didn’t lose him before realizing the importance of capturing and preserving family memories. That’s why I believe Storyworth is an excellent gift for Father’s Day.
Storyworth is incredibly user-friendly. Your dad or grandpa only needs to answer one question per week, and Storyworth takes care of the rest. The questions can be chosen from Storyworth’s suggestions or customized to fit your family’s unique history. It’s a simple and enjoyable way to reflect on life experiences and share forgotten stories.
Not only does Storyworth capture the memories, but it also inspires connection within your family. Each time your dad responds to a question, his answer is shared with a custom list of people you’ve chosen. Everyone can stay connected and engaged in the stories being shared, with the option to reply and add their own perspectives.
At the end of the year, Storyworth transforms all the collected answers into a personalized book. This book becomes a treasured keepsake, passed down through generations, preserving the unique stories and memories that make your family special. It’s not just a gift for your dad or grandpa; it’s a gift for you and your children as well. This year Em and I actually thought about how fun it’d be to create our own Storyworth book to someday share our own wisdom and experiences with our future children!
This Father’s Day, giving the gift of Storyworth will truly be a gift for your whole family that will be cherished for years to come! Feel free to let me know if you have any questions, and check out their website to get started!
