A fun t-shirt
Of course, socks are useful any time of the year, but as Christmas gifts, they create the impression that you haven’t put much thought into your old man’s present. However, this doesn’t mean that all clothing is out of the window. Instead, look for clothes that have a special meaning, like a t-shirt with a reference to a movie, band, or book he loves. From Star Wars to Rocky references, the market is full of good quality, fun, and affordable t-shirts that your dad will certainly appreciate.
A tracker tag
Many dads have surrendered themselves to the wonders of the tech world. However, they don’t have to be into technology to get a kick out of inexpensive gadgets like Bluetooth trackers. They’re convenient for those who constantly lose their keys, as they can attach the digital tag to their keychain and track it through a mobile app. It’s also an excellent option for fathers who travel a lot, as they can track their luggage and view its most recent location.
A pair of wireless earphones
A pair of earbuds will make tedious activities pleasing or even educational, as people can listen to their favorite artists, podcasts, or audiobooks while exercising, running errands, or doing household chores. Your father and his earbuds may become inseparable, but don’t feel jealous; his number one buddy will always be you.
A grill tool set
Cooking together is one of a family’s most memorable and meaningful pastimes. Whether your dad is the main chef at home or just likes to call himself one when it’s barbecue season, he’ll certainly enjoy receiving a gift that enhances his cooking experience. A grill tool set containing essential items for barbecues and camping cookouts is a great option. Not only will it motivate him to prepare five-stars barbecues, but they’ll truly appreciate the opportunity to reunite the family and spend some quality time together.
A vacuum-insulated cup
If cooking isn’t your father’s cup of tea and he prefers to have a drink while others prepare food, you could get him a vacuum-insulated cup. It’s a thermal cup that keeps drinks at their initial temperature for longer, so your dad and his beer will stay cool during summertime, and his coffee will remain hot when it’s chilly outside. Moreover, clumsy parents will love the fact that it has a leak-proof sealing slider lid. It can also fit into a car cup holder, so they can have their drink on the go.
A photo book
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so instead of telling your dad how much he means to you, why not show him? Personalized photo books are the way to do just that. A photo book allows you to express your appreciation with treasured pictures that can be arranged to tell a story. Dedicating time and energy to customizing it can make your dad feel loved and cared for, without you having to say a word. Starting at $9.99 for a 20-page book with Mixbook, you can create a unique Christmas-themed photo book in which every aspect of the design is customizable. Mini photo books also make for an affordable yet thoughtful gift. Moreover, personalizing a book with photos is an opportunity to relive good moments through cherished memories — and build new ones — as the whole family can engage in the creation process.
