This blog post talks about the history of Father’s Day briefly and transitions into gifting ideas for Father’s Day.
Why are finding gifts for dad’s the easiest yet the most complex thing on the planet?
I don’t have an answer for that, but I am sure that we can all agree that celebrating the father figures in our lives is important, so let’s get into this blog post, shall we?
The History of Father’s Day
Father’s Day has a special place in my heart……because this holiday was actually started in my hometown, by a women named Sonora Smart Dodd; she was raised by her father and wanted a holiday that represented the multifaceted family unit; so she invented “Father’s Day.”
Father’s Day is now celebrated throughout the world, which is very cool.
Showing that love really can create movements, holidays, celebrations and just about anything really.
So, in honoring the father figures in our lives, let’s take a minute to think about what we can do to let our father’s know how we truly care.
Yes, gifts are always nice, and dad’s I find are not that hard to buy for…….(but also, they are kind of hard to buy for).
If you grew up with a Dad like mine, you’d be told that cringe of all cringe tale of their “children being the actual gift,” in response to being asked about what they would like, which surprisingly helps no one to understand the nature of the gift that should be given…….(ah, the gift is love and it cannot be bought in a store)……..
So, without further word vomit, here are some dad friendly gift idea’s that you may find helpful for the father figures in your life.
The Active Dad Gift – Father’s Day Gift Guide
What dad would not love and use is this massage gun?
I honestly cannot think of a more practical gift for any father of any age, because after the age of 30……..
Everyone probably needs one.
Outdoorsy Dad Gift
After the year that we have had…..why not buy a survival kit for the entire family?
We like to call that investing in our future…… because the world is an actual MESS.
BBQ Obsessed Dad Gifts
For the dad that loves to grill and throw at home BBQ’s……….
May I introduce Grill Master Seasoning?
For the dad who literally will not stop obsessing over his grill tools…….
I have yet to meet a dad of any age (20’s to 120) who isn’t competitive and attentive with their grill game……… so I really feel like grill accessories are going to win you some brownie points.
For the dad that needs hot sauce with everything…..all year around…..his new favorite cooking accessory.
May I introduce the idea that he makes his own sauce……. so that he can force his recipe on the entire family?
For funsies.
Go with it.
Organizational Dad Gifts
For the dad who values organization and tech.
Family Fun Dad Gifts
For the dad who really likes outdoor family fun, may I introduce massive Jenga? It’s kind of out of the box and he probably won’t be expecting it.
This concludes the Father’s Day gift guide, for the 2021 season.
Let me know if you found this helpful or what you do decide on gifting this season.
As always, take care and talk to you soon.
