Xavier, 5, says he\u2019s getting exciting things for his dad: \u201cI\u2019m going to give my card to Dad, and it\u2019s going to be a surprise card. I can write my name. I always know. My name goes X \u2013 A \u2013 V \u2013 I \u2013 E \u2013 R. And I made him a fish.\u201d<\/div><\/div>

Dakota, 11, reckons her dad likes eggs: \u201cWe\u2019re going out for lunch, we\u2019ll make breakfast in bed \u2013 eggs on toast \u2013 and I\u2019m going to buy Dad a present at the Father\u2019s Day stall at school.\u201d<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Eliza, 10, thinks her dad will cook breakfast: \u201cWhat are we going to get him? Oh, we\u2019ve got him a barbeque. So we\u2019ve just bought a new barbeque for our house, so we\u2019ve decided to get him some barbeque tools.\u201d<\/div><\/div>

Inushi, a RCH volunteer, is planning some family time: \u201cI think we\u2019ll take Dad out for breakfast with the family and just spend some time with him on the weekend. He\u2019ll also get a pair of dress shoes that he wanted. He helpfully hinted to us a couple of weeks ago, so we\u2019ll probably get that as well.\u201d<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Liam, 7, is giving his dad a personalised chocolate bar: \u201cI\u2019m going to buy dad some presents. A key ring, and some chocolate with marshmallows in it.\u201d<\/div><\/div>

Libby, a RCH volunteer, is keeping it simple: \u201cWell, my Dad lives in the country and I live here, so I\u2019m just going to have to give him a phone call, and say \u2018Happy Father\u2019s Day!\u2019.\u201d<\/div><\/div><\/div>
