Father's Day Gift Guide

Father’s Day is fast approaching and let’s face it, dads are not the easiest people to shop for. Your dad has likely done a lot for you over the years - being at your games, dance recitals, school events, and graduations. He's taught you more than most people will from tying your shoes and riding a bike to driving a car. He probably even helped you move into your first place and was there to make you laugh every step of the way. It's easy to become stressed about finding the perfect gift to give someone who has given you so much. Because of this, we decided to create a gift guide to help you find the perfect gift for your dad. From the grill masters and beer lovers to the handymen and adventurers, we have you covered.

The Adventurer:
So your dad loves being outdoors, sleeping under the stars, and taking adventures. The perfect gift for him would be a well-planned hike or camping trip. Here are some other gifts your dad will love! A good bike for dads who love to cruise around in the sunshine, binoculars for birdwatchers and wildlife explorers, or a Swiss Army knife for the dad who likes to be prepared for anything and everything.
The Chef:
Your dad would fall under this category if he loves to cook, and he often refers to himself as the "grillmaster". Some gifts he might enjoy this Father’s Day are a new set of grilling tools and utensils, a turkey fryer for the dads who love to try something new, and grill baskets for the dads who love everything grilled.

The Handyman:

Getting dad tools for Father’s Day is classic, simple, and practical. However, not all men are handymen, and those who are have probably already got all the basics. If your dad falls under this category maybe try planning a project with him that you can work on together. Here are a few things to consider getting him this year.
The Gardener:
If your dad loves being in the garden or spending time in the backyard, in general, these gift ideas are for him. Garden shoes so he stops ruining all of his good sneakers, raised beds to help keep critters out (and helps relieve some of the back pain that comes with gardening), and lawn and garden tool storage so he always knows where everything is.
Since it’s pretty late in the season consider stopping by local farms to get seeds that have already been started for you. And if your dad is totally new to gardening but wants to start check out our first blog post from May.

The Beer Lover:
Maybe your dad is a craft beer enthusiast, domestic beer lover, ale/lager/stout/anything kind of guy. The perfect gift for dad would be a case of his favorite beer, or a variety pack of different craft beers. Here are a few other unique ideas for your dad. A water bottle so he can stay properly hydrated, a beer chart just for fun, and a shower beer holder because everyone needs one, really...
The Gamer:
We’re not talking the videogamer, we’re talking the old school, backyard gamer. Your dad falls into this category if he is the first to grab the bocce balls or cornhole bags at any BBQ or outdoor get-together. Here are some great ideas for your dad so that he can be a gamer whenever he wants! Go! Gater frisbee game like KanJam, but it's more forgiving when the game gets a little too intense, a badminton and volleyball set for the dads who just can't decide, or a bocce set because it's way more fun than one might think.

Your dad is unique completely one of a kind so maybe he doesn't fall under any of these categories, we get it! Breakfast in bed and a handmade card are always safe bets for any dad. But if you are still not sure what to get your dad this Father’s Day you can shop our entire Father’s Day collection here.
