Take a trip
Any trip would not only be great time but certainly something that you will both remember and talk about for many years. I would try and do something that you guys haven't done before or have never been to.
Fishing, hunting, hiking, sports trip, etc.
I don't remember hardly anything I received at Christmas as a kid but I still remember the fishing trips dad took my brother and I on. We would load up the truck, and drove north (SK & MB border) until we reached a lake that we wanted to try. Fished there for a day or 2 and then drove to a new one that we had never been to.
When dad turned 60, I took him to Lake of the Woods in Ont. We talked about going there for years as a kid, better never went. I surprised him with this trip and we had a great time. Way better memories on a trip/experience than just a gift of a toy etc. Most kids might not get it at their age but as they get older, this will all make sense. It did for me anyways.
Cheers.
