The Ultimate Gift Guide for Fathers Day 2020

June 4, 2020

With Father’s Day just around the corner, I’ve been thinking of what to get all the important father’s in my life. Buying gifts is tough, especially when you have to shop for people of different ages, tastes, and hobbies. I always feel that it’s easier to shop for women, because I am a woman, and I can somehow figure out something that they’ll like.

To shop for men can be tough. Men never admit that they want anything or request anything in particular.  My husband never tells me what he wants, and always tells me not to buy him anything for Father’s Day and even his birthday. So I’m always stuck with scrambling last minute, trying to look for the most meaningful gift.

I always look to the internet and Pinterest for some gift ideas, but I never seem to find anything that is super unique or interesting enough to gift to the men in my life. So I sat down and brainstormed some great ideas that aren’t the usual items you’ll find online and are great gifts for dads of all ages.

Here is my ultimate gift guide for Father’s Day 2020.

COOLING PINT GLASSES

Fathers day gift Idea

I don’t know about you, but I hate it when my drink gets warm towards the end. Especially with summer rolling around, you want your nice, crisp glass of beer to stay cool the entire time you’re drinking it.  These glasses have an insulated silicone grip for easy handling, and you keep them in the freezer before you pour the beer, so the beer stays nice and cool.   I think these pint glasses are perfect for the beer-drinking dads because their beer stays cold, and dad stays happy. Also, you don’t only have to pour beer in these glasses. They’re great for any cold drink!

WHISKEY DECANTER AND ROCKS GLASSES SET

FATHER'S DAY GIFT

This is something my husband actually has been talking about for quite a while now. This is a perfect gift for the dads who like to kick back and have a little bit of whiskey now and then.  Or the dads who love to entertain their friends and family.  This whiskey decanter and glasses set comes with a sparkling crystal decanter and four crystal drinking glasses. These glasses can also serve as cocktail glasses as well.  Such a steal for the price!

BEARD KIT

FATHERS DAY GIFT IDEAS

I can imagine around 85% of men in the world have a beard in 2020. Jokes aside, this is a great gift for dads with beards. This beard kit from Amazon is one that I actually purchased for my husband a few years back, and he absolutely loved it. I’m thinking of purchasing another one of these since he loved it so much, and needs to replenish all of the products. This beard kit has 100% pure and natural ingredients, which is always a plus. This kit includes beard shampoo, balm, oil, beard comb, boars hair brush, stainless steel scissors, and a high quality plastic beard shaping tool for trimming.

 

AIRPODS OR WIRELESS HEADPHONES

Fathers Day Gift Idea

Apple Airpods is a great Father’s day gift idea.  Airpods are great for those who have Apple phones.  I love these for obvious reasons because there aren’t any wires that get in the way of your workouts.  They also automatically connect, so you don’t have to fool around with Bluetooth before you use them.  The sound quality of the Airpods is amazing.   The microphones filter out background noise when you make calls or talk to Siri, which is always a plus.

TRX KIT

Father's Day Gift

This is a great gift for the dads that are trying to stay in shape. This Clothink Bodyweight Training Kit is awesome to use at home and even outdoors!  This awesome kit includes two adjustable resistance straps, one door anchor, one wall mount, one elastic resistance band, one extension strap, a drawstring travel bag, and an exercise book. As we’re still not out of the water with Covid-19 and social distancing, I think this is an awesome gift so dad can get in proper workouts at home.

AIR FRYER

Ninja Air Fryer

Air Fryer’s are super popular right now. The Ninja is a fan favorite right now.  I love the sleek design of it, and that it’s a touch screen.  The Ninja Air Fryer cooks, crisps, and dehydrates food, and also cooks food by using up to 75% less fat than traditional frying methods.   There are so many different things you can make that are healthy for the whole family, and makes the food coming out so crispy and yummy. If you don’t have an air fryer all ready, then you’re missing out!

INSTANT POT

The Instant Pot is a favorite amongst people who love to cook. It’s perfect for any dad who loves to be in the kitchen and cook up awesome meals.  The instant pot is a programmable pressure and multi cooker.  It speeds up cooking to 10 times, and it can even make yogurt!  There are so many awesome and quick recipes you can make with the Instant Pot. I use this on weekdays especially, when there isn’t a lot of time to make dinner.

SOUS VIDE PRECISION COOKER

This is another great tool to have in the kitchen. The Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker cooks meat by circulating water at the exact temperature required for perfectly cooked meats. The meat will ALWAYS come out perfect, tender, and juicy with the Anova Sous Vide. It’s super easy to use, and dad will love the extra help he gets in the kitchen.

PLANTS

Plant for Father's Day

Who doesn’t love plants?  This is a perfect Father’s Day gift because plants are so versatile & believe it or not, there are a lot of men who love plants.  I like plants that require less maintenance because I often forget to water plants and every plant requires different care.  Check out my Mothers Day blog post where I give a list of easy maintenance house plants, that are so easy to take care of.  Some manly plants that dad will love include:

  • Cactus
  • King Cobra Mangave
  • ZZ Plant
  • Venus Flytrap
  • Cream Spike Agave

RECORD PLAYER

Record Player Father's Day Gift

I love old school record players. I love the DIGITNOW vinyl record player because of the rustic appearance it gives, and I absolutely love the suitcase design.  I bought my husband one for Christmas a few years back & he loved it. Record players have such an esthetic appeal to them.  For the dads born in older generations this is an awesome Father’s Day gift idea. I’ll bring back so much nostalgia, as they listen to their favorite old school records on their record player. To make the gift even more personable, you can also purchase dad’s favorite old school records and a record holder to complete the gift.

BBQ GIFT BASKET

BBQ Gift Basket for Father's Day

I love gift baskets. I think they’re so much fun and gives the recipient a variety of smaller gifts as opposed to one big one.  Baskets are fun because you can be creative and put whatever you’d like in there.  A BBQ basket is a perfect Father’s Day gift for the grillin’ dads who love to cook and BBQ.  Some items you can put in the basket can include:

GIFT CARD

Gift Card For Father's Day

This can be boring to some, but for the picky dads, you can always get a gift card, and dad can pick out his gift on his own. Sometimes it’s hard choosing something, especially for someone that either isn’t into gifts or is just plain ol’ picky.  This is a great Father’s Day gift because at least you’ll know dad will pick out the perfect gift, and it’ll save you the headache as well (win-win situation right here). 

CRAFT BEER CLUB SUBSCRIPTION

Beer Subscription Fathers Day Gift

The Hop-Heads Beer Club is a monthly subscription that includes hoppy beers from both US and International breweries.  The membership is $34.95/month and it includes twelve 12oz hand-crafted hoppy beers.  You’ll receive four bottles of cans or three different hop-centric beers. You’ll also get their monthly newsletter which includes detailed tasting notes of the beers included, brewery history, and suggested food pairings.  It also includes a free bartender bottle opener with all orders of 3 shipments or more. This is such a unique gift and you can purchase as many months as you want, and cancel at any time. Which dad wouldn’t want this as a Father’s Day gift?

GRILL MASTERS CLUB SUBSCRIPTION

Subscriptions are so much fun!  When you purchase a Grill Masters Club subscription, every month dad will receive sauces, rubs, marinades, woodchips for the bbq, new recipes, and grilling accessories right to his door.  I love subscription boxes because there are so many cool products that are included, that you wouldn’t have even knew existed if it weren’t for the box. Also, Father’s Day is one day out of the year, whereas dad would be receiving a new gift every month.

Right now, they are currently having a Father’s Day sale, if you’re interested in purchasing a subscription.

Save $20 on a 12-month subscription with code GMCFATHERS12 from 6/1-6/20.

Save $15 on a 6-month subscription with code GMCFATHERS6 from 6/1-6/20.

 

SKINCARE

Skincare Fathers Day Gift

Believe it or not, men are into skincare too.  It’s important that men include skincare as a part of their daily routine.  I always buy my husband the Brickell Men’s Daily Face Care Routine, because I love the ingredients that this company uses.  I’ve also seen such a big difference in his skin since he’s been using this line. This set includes a purifying charcoal facial cleanser, essential facial moisturizer, and renewing face scrub.  This line is for men with normal to oily skin and includes ingredients such as jojoba oil, activated charcoal, aloe vera, and shea butter. This is a great Father’s Day gift idea for the dads who are into wellness and taking care of their skin.

POKER SET

Poker Set Father's Day Gift Idea

I have no idea how to play poker, but all I know is that it’s fun. My husband hosts poker parties at our home every so often, and it’s a great way for the guys to get together and hang out with some good food, drinks, and a poker game going.  This Poker set is an awesome Father’s Day gift for the dads that love poker and hanging out with the guys. This set comes with 500 total chips, playing cards, and a beautiful aluminum case. It’s perfect for up to 6 to 8 players.

DASH CAM

Dashcams are becoming increasingly popular these days. This is a great Father’s Day gift for the safe and savvy dads, who are all about safety first.  This Apeman Dash Cam is super easy to use, has excellent HD video quality, can record high-quality videos at night, and also automatically records whenever it detects car vibrations (like when someone is trying to break into your car).

PERSONALIZED BOOK

Father's Day Gift

I’m really into personalized books! Wonderbly has the best books that can be personalized for all different occasions. I’ve purchased a whole bunch of these personalized books for Christmas gifts, birthday gifts, and even easter gifts.  FromLucyGifts on Etsy also creates gorgeous personalized books as well.  You can click here to take a look at all of their personalized book creations.   This is a great gift to give to dad from the kids. Both dad and the kids will get a kick out of reading the book you chose which will have their names in it! How cool is that?
