Sometimes our Dads are left out of the equation, so let’s make him feel special and appreciated this Father’s Day.

Here are a few gift ideas that I’m sure he’s going to appreciate!

This gift is for The Sports Dad. Buy him something related to his favourite sport or his favourite team.
For example:

  • I know my dad loves to play Golf! I’ve been on the lookout for a Golf Package that is usually featured on Groupon Toronto.
  • Or you could buy your dad a piece of memorabilia with his favourite team’s logo on it! 
  • You could also look at Sportswear like a Golf Polo or khakis, maybe bicycle shorts or a windbreaker.

If your Dad is a techie, then he’ll definitely need all the latest gadgets (if he doesn’t already have them!)
Here are a few gift ideas for The Techie Dad:

  • a Blu Ray player for the movie buff, techie dad
  • a tablet for the all-in-one, techie dad. He can surf the net, listen to music, and read ebooks!

Is your dad a Foodie? I know mine is, but he can’t cook! If your Dad is similar, maybe these suggestions can help him in that department:

  • a BBQ Cook Book. BBQ is one of the easiest things to master. Learning how to BBQ and season your steaks to perfection is a great first step to get your Dad inspired.
  • If your Dad is already a master around the grill, maybe he needs a new BBQ Tool Set. Most come equipped with a BBQ fork, grill brush, tongs, a spatula, skewers, corn holders, maybe even a grill light. BBQ Tool Sets can be found at Canadian Tire.
  • Pick up a 2-4 of his favourite beer, he’ll be sure to love that!
  • Or buy him a bottle of his favourite wine

The Metro Dad loves to smell and feel good. Here are a few gift options for the Metro Dad:

  • His favourite cologne or a cologne he’s never tried before
  • a gift certificate for a Massage
  • Shower products like bath soaps, scrubs, and shower gels (head to Lush for a wide array of products!)

Buying Dad a car is out of the question for most of us, but we can get pretty darn close with these gifts for The Car Dad:

  • a gift certificate to an automotive parts store
  • automotive accessories
  • a gift certificate for an oil change
  • Is he a fan of Jeep? Get him a Jeep hat at your local Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep. Does he love Ferrari? Buy him a Ferrari polo!

Your Simple Dad will love DIY Projects!

  • Frame your favourite photo of the two of you
  • Create coupons like “This offer is valid for one free hair cut”, or “This offer is valid for one beer. I’ll even get it out of the fridge for you!”
  • Make your own card
  • Or buy a funny card that he’s sure to love! Check out www.stickswithstones.com for unique, HILARIOUS Father’s Day cards.
