Give your dad a gift that he can give back to you!

Priceless Treasures has the answer to the perfect Father’s Day gift:

Father’s Memories is a unique family memory journal which has been designed to encourage Dads to record stories of their day-to-day lives, particularly their childhood, both to share now and also to pass on to children and grandchildren.   If you give the journal as a present, you can even have fun filling it in together and comparing your life today with his! When it’s completed, your father may want to give the book back to you to keep as a family record which family members can dip into.

Perfect as a present for Father’s Day on Sunday 17 June, the book was created by Julie Pinnell, who drew on her own family experience to create the books. After losing all her grandparents by her teens, Julie wanted her parents to record their memories and stories for her two young children so that they would ‘know’ their own grandparents. The first book was handwritten, but the idea was so popular that Julie created her business, Priceless Treasures Ltd which now markets a full range of books for different members of the family.

Julie says of Father’s Memories: “Have you ever asked your father to share stories of his childhood with you? Do you know what his favourite music was during his teenage years? How did he meet your mother? These are questions that we may not think to ask our fathers, but the answers are special, especially as the books are designed to be completed in his own handwriting.

“When my father completed a book for me, I had asked what his proudest memory of me was. He had written that all his memories of me were proud – something he’d never actually said to me. I was so touched to read something I might never have otherwise known.”

Inside Father’s Memories there are over 200 questions with space for handwritten answers and room for photographs as well. Questions include:

· Where were you born, and where?
· Share with me a memory of your grandparents…
· What was the naughtiest thing you ever did? Did you get found out?
· What was your first car?
· Tell me about meeting my mother – how/where did you meet?
· Do you remember what my first words were?
· Do you have a piece of good advice for me?

Fathers can complete the book with their children or alone, either one question at a time or all at once.  The finished book will then become a treasured family keepsake, a priceless record of memories for current and future generations to enjoy.
