Gifts related to his hobby
What’s his hobby? Is it anime or a TV show? Action, adventure or extreme sports? From gardening to cycling, you need to think of the equipment that he is missing and it will make him happy to receive it as a gift.
For example, the book Games on Thrones: 100 things to do on the loo offers amusing diversions and exciting challenges jostle for your attention to see you through those long bathroom visits. It is great for dads, who spend time on the loo.
If he loves anime series, then a figurine of this series would be a great idea for his collection. For instance, if he loves the popular anime series Demon Slayer Kimetsu No Yaiba, this highly detailed Zenitsu Agatsuma figure in a collectors box.
If the dad in your mind likes Lego and Star Wars, then you can’t go wrong with this LEGO Star Wars Captain Rex Helmet Building Kit for adults.
In case your dad likes gardening, then a DIY terrarium kit is what you’re looking for! This is a gardening experience with a twist. You can gift him terrarium online classes and a terrarium kit that includes whatever he needs to create his own succulent terrarium. You can choose a terrarium based on a theme, the size and your budget. I personally love this coastal DIY terrarium kit.
Day-pass
Do you know many dads, who wouldn’t enjoy spending time in an arcade? There is something about the atmosphere of an arcade that makes gaming more fun. Arcades are amazing places, where people go to relax and enjoy themselves, so give him this gift to forget any worries and feel like a young kid again! It’s easy to play and have a good time as you are surrounded by others, who also have fun, and it helps to adopt the spirit.
And if your budget allows, you can organise a trip for his family or him and his friends to visit an amusement or water park! Have a look here at the 10 biggest waterparks in the world.
Gifts to have fun and bond with his kids
Some fathers look for activities to do with their kids, spend quality time and bond with them. Board games, kids books and toys, which he would love to play with, can entertain both dads and their children! If you have children older than 7 years old, ‘Do you really know your family? card game or even the classic UNO could be perfect for family fun. The board game Don’t wake up dad could also be fun for the whole family! It looks easy but you will need to avoid the howling cat, the tinkling bell and a hooting owl. Then you will need to creep past Dad as he snores in bed. Who will reach the chocolate cake first without waking Dad?
Moreover, board games and toys related to his interests and hobbies would offer moments of fun for dads and his children. For instance, this Monopoly board game is inspired by Marvel Studios’ Black Panther, Wakanda Forever movie.
A book, such as Daddy And Me Children’s Finger Puppet Board Book, would be a great gift to read with his young kids before bedtime. Dad can read along and play with his baby or toddler through this story of a very busy day in the jungle. The cute lion puppet and sweet rhyming text will make this finger puppet book a favorite for daddy to read with his little one!
Either he likes cycling or he would like to find a new hobby, a bike could be the perfect gift. If he is a beginner or a casual rider, a recreation bike would be perfect for him. Recreation bikes are easy to ride and he will enjoy a comfortable and fun bike ride. Some of the great features of these bikes are upright and comfortable seating position, lightweight frame and gears for hassle-free pedalling and smooth shifting. Our baby/kid seat is Thule RideAlong and we highly recommend it! The Thule RideAlong Baby Seat is a simple and safe baby seat that makes family rides easy.
Memberships/subscriptions
What’s in the dad’s bucket list? He might want to start going to the gym, visit more often the airport museum or learn a new skill? Also, an audible membership is perfect for dads, who hate reading, but would love to listen to their favourite books!
