For once, leave the pants and socks to your old man, it’s time he bought his own underwear. Father’s Day is about saying a big “thanks pop” for all the love and support he’s given you over the years, for the nights he let you stay up late and all the times he lent you a tenner when your mum said no.
It’s time he got a treat, and despite what greetings card companies would have you believe, some dads do have interests that lie outside of golf, farts, beer and fast cars. In fact, there’s a smorgasbord Father’s Day gifts ideas out there, you just have to know where to look!
Aim somewhere between Mother’s Day flowers and bubble bath-type gifts and a novelty golf club cover and you’re bound to find the perfect treat for your dad on Father’s day. Gadgets are a great bet, whether he’d like something hi-tech and flashy or something more practical, the gadget market is bursting at the seams with cool Father’s Day gift ideas.
Dads get just as sentimental and mushy over grandchildren as mums, so try whacking a few digital photos onto a cool gadget like a Digital Photo Frame or a Digital Photo Keyring and presenting it as a Father’s Day gift. It’s fun, stylish and personal, and best of all you can set the whole thing up for him before you hand it over, perfect for technologically challenged dads.
Whether you agree with his music taste or not there’s a good chance your dad has a stack of old vinyl still lying around, which makes gadgets like a USB Turntable a fantastic gift for Father’s Day. Help him update his collection by converting old 33s, 45s and 78s into crisp digital audio he can pop on a CD, Flash Drive or even an MP3 player. It may mean opening yourself up to a torrent of 80s dad rock or worse, but it’s his day after all.
Of course some dads never grew up at all and would love nothing better than a high speed remote control helicopter, if so the Father’s Day gift market is your oyster. Take that a step further and gung-ho dads might well enjoy one of the many gift experience days that have popped up recently. Sign him up for a day of 4×4 off-road driving or an exhilarating gliding experience; it beats a pair of novelty socks any day. Even the musical variety.
Whatever your dad’s interests and whatever your budget, there are loads of fun and fantastic Father’s Day gifts ideas to choose from. This year it’s time to up the game and surprise him with something a little different. Of course, if your dad really does have a genuine love of socks you can always throw a pair in with a cool gadget to placate him. After all, we wouldn’t want his feet getting cold.
