Father’s Day is that special day for the man you call dad or grandpa. Although handmade cards, his favorite homemade foods, and heartfelt messages are great ideas for this special day, there are a wide variety of gifts you can choose to surprise him and give him something special on Father’s Day.
Men, our husbands and fathers in general, tend to be busy people with a penchant for DIY. In addition to managing their day jobs and supporting the family, many of them also enjoy doing home repairs and DIY projects at home or inside their caves.
With this in mind, a gift card from Home Depot, Lowe’s, or your favorite hardware store is one of the best options you can choose for an urgent gift for your special man on Father’s Day or any other occasion. Men generally view these places as their “toy store.” Any typical dad would usually make a dozen trips to the hardware store in a week and never get tired of doing it or even think about his next trip. He’ll not only appreciate the gift, but he might end up doing that repair or setting up the DIY swing before the weekend.
Electronics are also great options to consider when shopping for gifts for that special guy. Think digital cameras, widescreen TVs, DVD players, or laptop computers. It all depends on what they are passionate about. If you like watching movies, DVD players or a big TV, this would be a great surprise. If you love the outdoors and enjoy photography, a fancy new digital camera would do the job. However, these gifts can be a bit pricey, so be sure to save and plan ahead so you can get one for your favorite man on Father’s Day.
Personalized gifts are also a great idea when giving a present to the guy who seems to have everything. You can buy frames, plates or figurines especially with Father’s Day in mind. You can also buy personalized pens. Mugs and t-shirts with special photos and special messages to show your appreciation.
Gift certificates to a hobby they like or a specialty store they like to visit are also a good choice for Father’s Day gifts. If they like to golf, drink wine or work with wood, you can practically find a specialty gift shop for that. Get him a gift certificate for an item he really likes or needs.
