It’s almost (officially) time to celebrate all of the dads out there and many of us struggle with gift ideas. So we’ve gathered some suggestions, in no particular order, and all over the price spectrum.

This post may contain affiliate links, which means we may make a small commission if you purchase something through the link.  You don't pay a cent more than you would otherwise.

Food/Beverage Related

 

Big Green Egg

My husband would say this was his favorite gift ever, plus there are so many accessories available to enhance the experience!

Ooni Pizza Oven

Laura’s husband loves his Ooni Pizza Oven. He also orders the dough from them, which I understand is delicious!

Clear Cube Ice Maker

My husband loves this thing. You can purchase different shaped trays to enhance all cocktail needs!

Dry rubs and barbeque sauces contribute to the creativity of the grill master!

These go hand-in-hand with those clear cubes.

Sports Related

When it’s time to replace some of the old, worn gear:)

For the diehard fan who already has everything!

Clothing

Nice Laundry Monogrammed Socks

My husband loves these socks and they hold up well.

Dad T-Shirt

Customizable and hilarious.

Linen Shirt

Even though this model looks like he’s 15, Uniqlo has great linen shirts for Dad at a fabulous price.

Books

Dads like good vacation reads, too. Here are a few suggestions…



Experiences

In our stage of life, with adult children, family time is so valuable and treasured. If you have the opportunity to plan an experience with the family, that will likely mean more than any tangible gift.

Day on the Lake— rent a boat (unless you already have one) and spend the day together on a lake.

Weekend trip– Meet somewhere or go somewhere for a weekend; rent a cabin, explore a new area or return to one you’ve all loved.

Cooking class– Schedule a cooking class if Dad likes food and/or cooking.

Top Golf– If he’s a golfer, Dad might enjoy an outing here.

BBQ and Breweries— Enjoy a meal at  his favorite BBQ restaurant and follow it up with stops at local brew pubs.

 

We would love your ideas… gifts and or/experiences that have been big hits… please share!
