This was the question I put to the MiniMads this weekend. I asked them what would MadDad’s #FathersDayDreams be.
They sat down and had a think and they had a think:
“A visit to Thorpe Park” was Maxi’s first reaction.
“Is that not what you want, not what Daddy would want?” I asked.
“Well, if we are happy, then he is happy” Oh yes he is a wise child!
After some more thinking and me reminding them that this was Daddy’s dreams not theirs, this is what they came up with (do have a watch it is only 30 seconds long):
Braun are running an amazing #FathersDayDream Competition
To be in with a chance of winning an amazing prize to celebrate with your dad this Father’s Day, why not create your own father’s Day message and tweet it to @Braun #FathersDayDreams and #Braun, the more creative and fun the better!

MadDad reviews the Braun Series 3
Over the last year or so MadDad has been clean shaven, grown a beard and shaved his beard (as he said they were far too common).
When he is clean shaven, he needs to shave everyday for work and shaves with either a wet blade or with a shaver (not a Braun).
He has been using the Braun Series 3 for the last week and is really impressed with it. You can use it in the shower (which he loves) and he finds it really intuitive to use. He doesn’t need to stand at a mirror to shave and he has been really pleased with the cut as have the boys. They both hate it when Daddy has stubble, preferring a three day growth or a smooth shaven face!
Previously he didn’t like foil shavers as he felt they pulled rather than cut, but not so with the series 3 as it has a triple action free float system, where three independently moving cutting elements adapt to every facial contour and effectively cut both long and short hairs with every stroke.
He has put his old shaver away and will be using this from now on, which I think is as good a review all in all.
What a great idea, off to do one of these later with the kids!
i hate fathers day, for the only act hubby and dad always say i dont want anything or want something i wouldnt want t get them nrmally , this year dads getting fishing stuff and hubby wants a nw wedding ring as his has gotten too small x
Lovely video! The kids and me are going to have a go at one later!
I wish Baby could speak! Great competition and lovely video x
its very nice of you to ask what kids think as maybe they will come up with something you never thought yourself
Your boys are so charming. I think a lie in and some quiet would be my husbands fathers day dream, sadly I think it’s also a fantasy!
Brilliant! I think we all want to win the lottery right?!
I never know what to get Hubby for father’s Day.
How lovely. I think it is a great idea to ask children for ideas when they are old enough – after all he is their Dad!
Awww, this this brilliant .x
Arrr that is a lovely video, I bet all dads would love some peace and quiet 🙂 x
I think my husband would love a day off from us all but he won’t be getting it!
What a lovely video! I know my husband would love a day filled with giggles and little mr smiles x
Cracking idea, and loving the video jen x
My husband definitely needs one of these. He’d shave a lot more often if he could get it done in the shower!
I love Maxi’s initial answer…Thorpe Park! He has it right…happy kids = happy parents! lol!
What a great video and post, now I must go get my Father’s day stuff sorted! Didn’t that come round quick!
Your Comments I haven’t even started to think about Fathers day yet 😉
Win the lottery! I know a good few Daddy’s who would love that as their Father’s Day gift.
I love how his face lights up when his brother mentions winning the lottery!
What a good idea . I know my husband would enjoy going to watch Man united play
‘Peace and quiet’, winning the lottery – are we adults sooo transparent? 😉 Loved the video, they reminded me of Pete and Dud!
It is always so interesting to get kids point of view… love the way they think
What some great ideas – my Dad always says if he wins the lottery he would buy a house with a lake so he could fish everyday.. (Trouble is he doesn’t play the lottery – perhaps I should get him a ticket!) x
