In my gifts for moms post, I mentioned that I thought it was hard to shop for moms. Now that I am trying to come up with a list for dads… I think it may be harder.
I do think that I came up with a pretty good list that has some items that will fit different dads interest. So if your shopping for a Father’s Day gift, Christmas gift or birthday gift for dad or a dad, I think you will find some pretty good ideas for him here.
Dad, I Want To Hear Your Story Journal
I guess when I think about it, this kind of ends up being a gift for yourself. You get to read about your dads life experiences from childhood, all the way through adulthood.
Bonus points if you spend the time with dad and write it out for him to hear more details of his story. This will make your dad feel special and happy to reminisce those times with you. This book comes in both paperback and hardcover.
Personalized “I Am Their Father” Sign
This gift would be loved by any dad who is a Star Wars fan. Super personalized from the names, lightsaber colors and even if you want to change the father to say dad, grandpa, daddy or a different special message you can! (Idea alert: this could be a cute, nerdy way to tell your s/o your pregnant if he is a fan)
Crafted from high quality wood, this Star Wars themed sign is perfect to be displayed anywhere.
This 16oz glass beer pint is engraved for dads who have a sense of humor and love drinking beer.
But if the dad in your life is more of a scotch or whisky drinker then this 11oz whiskey glass with the same engraving is the perfect one to get!
I love this gift for young dads! The shirt looks to be really good quality in the way it fits and looks (check out the other photos). It is available in 15 different colors and can be personalized with the year of your first kid.
This 10qt lunchbox is vacuum sealed and inspired by 1950s lunchboxes that were built to last.
So whether the dad in your life needs something durable to pack his lunch for work, going fishing or just being outdoors; this Stanley has you covered.
3-Speed Vinyl Record Player With Bluetooth
This portable record player is a great nostalgic gift with impressive sound quality! It has built in speakers but also jacks to hook up to external speakers, digital players and headphones. There are 6 different colors to pick from but if you want a stationary vinyl record player (opposed to this portable one), this one is also a great, highly rated option.
JBL Portable Mini Bluetooth Speaker
Speaking of music, I had to add one of these for the dads out there who hopefully will love the use of this when hanging out indoors, outdoors and while traveling.
This cool little speaker is waterproof, dust proof, has a 10 hours of battery life and is available in 12 different colors!
I have seen this one on sale for as low as $50 but if it is off sale, this speaker also by JBL will be a great one to purchase at a fair price point.
Buying this set for the dad that loves grilling, is probably the equivalent of someone gifting you a set of your favorite Sephora makeup products.
Well… maybe not exactly but pretty close. This set has everything he needs but if your dad loves golf as much as barbecuing, then he’ll love this set even more.
If the dad in your life loves his car, then he will adore this interior and exterior detailing kit. This is a gift that will keep giving since he will get tons of uses out of these products.
Kids can be exhausting! Some days you just don’t have the energy to entertain them the way you would like or you just need a little break.
So here is a book that shows 50 ways to keep your kids entertained while laying down. It’s highly rated by 100s of people so what do you have to lose.
This is a 2 in 1 gift for dads! He gets a free back massage with the car included and he gets to relax while keeping an eye on the little ones.
Just as a heads up, you may want to wash this on gentle cycle to keep the print nice and a couple people have reviewed they received a shirt with the race track on the front of the shirt. Hopefully it is an easy Amazon return if that happens or he can play with the kids if its on the front.
