The Best Gift Ideas for Dads

Tim Ponisciak said:  For the outdoorsmen, get them a new tent for the whole family! Lots of dads will want to spend time outside with their kids, but may not have the supplies to do that with the whole family. This tent can sleep up to nine people, so there will be plenty of room for all.

Lisa R said:  Whatever dad carries when he leaves the house, be it a briefcase, backpack, messenger or saddle bag, Timbuk2 has some stylish upgrades he might appreciate. Timbuk2 bags are "made to last a lifetime" and are constructed according to ethical manufacturing practices.

Erin P. said:  If dad is staying up and watching a lot of late night TV with a newborn, he will probably enjoy this book, written by comedian Jimmy Fallon. Fallon spent a lot of time trying to get his daughter's first word to be "Dada," and this challenge inspired the book. Although Fallon was not successful (his child's first word was "Mama"), this is still a cute book!

Lisa R said:  Let's face it: half the jokes in kids movies are for the adults anyway. Have your kids chip in for a movie outing with Dad for his birthday or Father's Day, complete with his favorite candy. The kids get a movie, Dad gets some low-energy bonding time and Mom gets everyone out of the house.

Vanessa M. said:  Is the dad in your life always finding that he has to pick up new earbuds because his last pair broke...again...? Invest in a good quality set that will last him a long time! Add on a protection plan for a few dollars more.

Stephanie W. said:  YETIs are the best gifts for dads on the go! The YETI is known for its ability to keep drinks cold or hot for hours on end, making it a great cup to bring to work, when traveling, or just around the house. The MagSlider lid uses magnets to avoid leaks better than any other lid, and has a No Sweat design to keep his hands dry!

Tim Ponisciak said:  Make sure dad can relax in style! Sanuks are super comfortable and look good. They have sandals and shoes that are like a combination of a sandal and slipper.

Jennie Utsinger said:  This ingenious Toolcard is slim enough for dad to slip in his wallet or clip onto his jeans with the removable money clip. Wrenches, bottle opener, can opener, Phillips screwdriver, ruler, cord cutter: dad will always have a tool handy!

Kelly R. said:  Get him a set of these highest-quality playing cards that will survive poker night and family game night, too. They're made of 100% cellulose acetate plastic, not the vinyl used in other plastic playing cards. This blend makes them flexible, durable, and completely washable. The set includes two poker-size decks and a hard plastic box.

Brigitte Nohra Miller said:  Knock Knock offers a wide variety of gifts and books for different occasions. You can't miss with this personalized book as a gift for dads! The kids can fill in the blanks and share their love with dad. This gift has the potential to hold lots of memories and joy to share for years to come!

Jennie Utsinger said:  Give your bacon loving spouse or father this delicious trio from Murray's: cherrywood bacon, brown sugar bacon, and hickory bacon. 2.5 lbs of bacon are shipped fresh to your doorstep!

Kelly R. said:  The Sonos One speaker packs a big punch for its small size. It fills any space with a powerful high-quality sound, and is easy to move around. Setup is simple, and music streams over wi-fi with a handy app or voice control.

Erin P. said:  Is it hard for the dad in your life to get to the grocery store nowadays? Send some Omaha Steaks his way! Omaha Steaks are shipped straight to your door and arrive on dry ice. You can purchase a variety of packages, including beef combos.

Beth Wood said:  Save ticket stubs to favorite concerts, sporting events, shows, museums and more in this ticket stub diary. To make this a fun experience gift for dad, get him started on his collection by including tickets to an upcoming event!

Vanessa M. said:  What do boys who play with Legos become when they grow up? Dads who play with Legos! This Lego Ideas Ship in a Bottle set is made for the adult master builder, or would make a fun father/son or father/daughter activity!
