Practical Gifts for Fathers Day
Around comes another Fathers Day…have you done your shopping for the dad in your life?
Are you positive what you have in mind hasn’t been given to him before? Are you getting him practical items for Fathers Day?
You won’t see a single tie, coffee mug, or t-shirt on this list!
In my opinion, if those are given to you once in your lifetime, you have enough of them! No one needs a cupboard full of #1 dad mugs or a closet full of unworn ties and t-shirts.
Step up your gift game for the dad in your life this Fathers Day!
(Update: This whole list has been approved by my wonderful husband and the father of my child!)
Squatty Potty
If your husband or father walks through the door after work and heads to the bathroom for the next 30 minutes with his phone, this is the gift for you!
Key Organizer
Does he have as many keys as a high school janitor? Do his keys tear up his pants and the couch? Make the jingling stop and save the snags in the couch!
Key Chain Tools
For the handy man on your gift list. No more will he have to run to the closest garage or store to get a screwdriver for a little project!
Magnetic Wrist Band
If you are constantly bringing decor and picture frames home from Hobby Lobby for him to hang up, make his life a bit easier. This magnetic wrist band holds screws, drill bits, and an assortment of other metal hardware so he can use both of his hands and still be able to have things in easy reach.
Grilling Tool Set, Platter & Spices
Do you have a God of the Grill on your hands? Get him the ultimate grilling tool set, a set of delicious spices, and a nice big handled platter to carry his mounds of meat in and out of the house.
A nice new watch
Step up his wrist watch game with a nice new Fossil! Then head out for a night on the town so he can show it off!
A funny outfit for a baby
Have a new dad in your life? Get his little one a fun outfit to celebrate him surviving to his first Fathers Day!
Grooming Kit
If you have a manly man who sports facial hair, give him the gift of a full grooming set and if he’s going to grow a beard, make sure he takes care of those whiskers!
Docking Station
Does the man you’re shopping for constantly ask where his wallet, keys, phone or watch are? Get him this fabulous docking station to keep all of his pocket goodies in one spot and he can even charge his phone on the station!
Record Player (With BlueTooth capabilities)
Give him the gift of fancy music! This amazing device can play records, radio, cassette tapes, CDs, and has bluetooth connections. It’s an all in one music station!
Grab him some fabulous records to play on it!
An All in One Dremel
For all the pesky little projects around the house. It’s a miniature version of dozens of tools and can tackle most home projects you have on your list.
A Dad Joke Book
So he thinks he’s a comedian? Give him some new material and a good laugh when he opens this gift!
Portable Survival Tool
For the dad who enjoys the great outdoors, he can start fires and be safe while enjoying the wilderness!
A Whiskey Decanter Set
For the classy whiskey drinking dad, let him impress his friends at the next poker night and serve up some fancy looking drinks!
A Poker Night Set
Not only are you giving him a nice poker set, but you are giving him an easy way to make plans with his friends.
You can grab him a fabulous case full of chips. A table topper to throw on a folding or dining table or you can grab a folding table with built in cup holders.
Subscription to Dollar Shave Club
Take razors, soap, shaving cream, after shave, and all kinds of grooming products off of the grocery list and have them mailed to the dad in our life for pennies on the dollar you’re used to spending!
Satellite Radio Subscription
Give him access to hundreds of fun satellite radio channels that can stream his favorite music genres, sporting events, and talk shows!
Sport Channel Subscription
Some leagues and teams have their own channels now! Get him the gift of unlimited watching of his favorite sport!
Tickets to an event
Is his favorite professional team coming into the area for a game? Is his favorite band going to be in town in a few months? Grab some tickets. Either go as a family or chat with his friends and plan a whole evening out for him!

Some great gift ideas, I always struggle with what to buy men so this has come in handy #TriumphantTales
They really are hard to shop for! I got my husband’s stamp of approval on this, so I was thrilled!
Thanks for stopping by!
Some really great suggestions on here. I am always stumped as to what to buy any of the men in our family (hubby included!).
Same! I scoured Amazon this year for some ideas and got them all husband approved!
A great selection of ideas – the men in my life are so tricky to buy for! Thanks for sharing at #TriumphantTales, hope to see you back again next week!

I believe it’s Sunday June 17th this year! What man wouldn’t love a BBQ set?!
Thanks for stopping by!
Great ideas! I only realised Fathers Day was coming up recently and I’ve been stuck for ideas. I love these as they are practical. We don’t have a huge house so for us everything we bring into it either has to be beautiful or have a purpose. #ThursdayTeam
I hate filling my home with junk! If I buy something, it had better be getting used regularly!
Thank you so much for stopping by!
This list is superb and filled with some superb suggestions. I celebrate both Mother’s day and Father’s day. Now I am confused which gift should I choose because all are superb.
Thank you so much!

Lots of interesting gift ideas here! #bloggerpinparty
Thank you so much! Glad you could stop by, Ruth!
Dads are always hard to buy for, aren’t they? These are great ideas, I know both my husband and dad would love the grilling kit and the book of dad jokes! Thanks so much for joining us in our very last #SharingtheBlogLove
They really are! They all love grilling and for some reason, we have a baby and all of a sudden they start in with the terrible dad jokes!
Thank you for stopping by, Katy!
Haha! My husband definitely needs the squaty potty. Although I’m not sure how grateful he would be. But that magnetic wrist band… I can not even begin to explain how much he would love that. I’m seriously tempted to get it for him.
Thank you for joining us at #ThursdayTeam
My husband was ecstatic when he found out I got him a squatty potty! The magnetic wristband is on my list of things to spoil him with!
Thanks for stopping by, Kirsty!
I’ve not even thought about Father’s Day. It’s 2 days before my birthday and I always kind of forget about it until the last minute. I tend to go for a watch for my husband he loves them. Thank you for joining us at #SharingtheBlogLove
My husband adores his watches as well!
Thank you so much for stopping by, Laura!
Great suggestions although I’m not sure about the squatty potty!!! Thank you for linking with #stayclassymama
I wasn’t sure about it either, but it has become a staple in our house!
Thank you for stopping by!
Love the squatty potty idea – so funny! I try to get my husband gifts from Dee that they can use together – books, days out etc.. #BlogCrush
It’s now a staple in our home!
I adore experiences as gifts when you have no room around the house or no absolute needs!
Thank you so much for stopping by, Alice!
It’s almost worth purchasing the Poo spray just to see my OH’s face when he’s presented with it on Father’s Day #SharingtheBlogLove
They may have an inquisitive face when they receive gifts like that, but my goodness do they work and become a staple in the home!
Thank you for stopping by!
