Nice Gifts for Dad

Grill

For a father who likes to cook for his family, choose a grill. The kitchen is oftentimes the domain of the women, so with a grill he can have his own territory. Choose a simple charcoal grill that can double as a smoker. You could also select a large gas grill that has a burner or even a deep fryer. A less expensive grill gift could be a gift basket filled with grilling tool or marinades and sauces that will complement his favorite grilled foods.

Consider choosing a gadget for your father. Tailor the gadget to his life, a hobby or an interest of his. For example, if he travels a lot, consider selecting a global positioning system. When your father likes playing sports, consider a golfing range finder or a speed gun to measure how fast he throws the baseball. An electronic reader is a good option for a father who enjoys books. You can always choose a cell phone accessory or a computer accessory as well.

Many men like playing or watching sports. Consider choosing a sports-themed gift for your father. You could go in many different directions with this idea. For example, select a piece of sports gear for him, whether you go with a golf club, a soccer ball or gym clothes. Another idea is a piece of sports memorabilia from his favorite team or player or a set of tickets to a game being played by his favorite team.

You could also select a sentimental gift for your father that will show him how much he means to you. For example, create a scrapbook filled with pictures and mementos from memories that you have together. Another idea is to choose a picture of the two of you from when you were a child and place it in a frame. If you live a long way from your father, a trip to see him might be the best gift you could choose.
