Whether he’s the father who always spoiled you or the father of your children, here are some great and very current gifts you can give the favourite men in your life.
Pamper him with Gadgets:
The IPad2 is so slim, has a great interface and is an ideal way to wire your Dad. It’s 33 percent thinner and up to 15 percent lighter than the original IPad, so not only does it feel more comfortable, but with its high tech surfing, emailing, DVD and book-reading capabilities, it actually feels so natural and right, it’s hard to imagine using anything else. Plus, as a gaming interface, it’s fun, so if you have kids, he can play with them on his IPad2 as well.
Pamper Him with Sports:
Why not get him two tickets to a baseball game, ideally directly behind home plate? Best of all, go with him for some Father-Daughter bonding.
Pamper him with Cake:
Your Dad loves playing golf and likes to eat cakes? Have we got the perfect gift for him. Make him a batch of golf-ball shaped cake pops, wrap them and gift it to him. Or, how about some Tee cupcakes? If you are really want to show your life, throw him a golf-themed Father’s Day party, using ideas from this great golf-themed birthday party featured on Hostess with the Mostess.
Pamper Him With Nostalgia:
Whether it’s buying him the Beatles White album, tickets to see everyone’s favourite Beach Boy Brian Wilson (June 18th 2011 Massey Hall, Toronto) or getting him something nostalgic from this youth, make the present you get your beloved father be about him, not you.
Pamper him with Body Care:
LUSH Cosmetics has a fabulous new men’s product. Titled “Get Dirty,” it’s actually a set of men’s cleaning and grooming products with Gorilla Perfume including Dirty Springwash shower gel, Dirty Hair Styling Cream, Dirty Toothy Tabs: Revolutionary, innovative tooth cleansing tabs, Dirty Shaving Cream, and a vial of Dirty gorilla perfume, which is the scent of the entire line.
This is a very fun product with the philosophy: “Even the dirtiest man showers, shaves and cleans his teeth from time to time. With our new Dirty range we make sure he smells great all over, and in perfect harmony.”
The scent is fresh and something most men would like. The tooth cleansing tabs in particular are a novel and fun part of the gift. The packaging is deceptively small with a cool CD on the cover stating it’s a New Release that “leaves girls wanting it … and probably borrowing it too.”
Pamper Him with Your Time:
Whether it’s going together to a baseball game, watching a movie, or taking him out for dinner, the best gift to give you Dad is your time. If you live in a different city, try to pop over and surprise him for Father’s Day and if that is not possible, then Skype.
