Father’s Day Gift Ideas

Father’s Day Gift Ideas

Are you struggling for original Father’s Day gift ideas? You want something that reflects your dad’s interests and what he means to you. Let us help you find the ideal option and encourage you to support small businesses.

Gift Ideas for Dads

Not all men love beer and socks, so let’s think outside the box! We’ve got some alternative suggestions for Father’s Day gift ideas that we hope will inspire you.

Grow your Own Gift Boxes

Green-fingered fathers might enjoy a Smart Mushrooms kit – a compact way to grow quality mushrooms with great flavour and multiple health benefits. What’s great is that the packaging is also the growing container! Alternatively, your dad might prefer to grow chillies, herbal tea plants or curry ingredients. All of these seed gift boxes, and more, are available from The Gluttonous Gardener. For a more practical option, Grow Chem® offers products to help optimise plant growth – it could be just the ticket for your dad’s blooming beds.

Gifts for Delight Coffee-loving Dads

Is your dad a connoisseur of coffee? Does he need caffeine to keep his energy levels up? If so, you might consider a coffee subscription box or gift from a specialist roaster. There are many small, independent companies in the UK to choose from. How about checking out what Missing Bean or Moon Roast have to offer?

Ticking the Boxes for On the Go, Active Dads

Many dads enjoy keeping fit and active. Yours might be a Lycra-clad road cyclist, a karate black belt, a fan of five-a-side or a marathon runner. They often have all the kit for their chosen sport, but how do they retain fitness when they are out and about? Let us tell you about two mobile fitness options that could be just the ticket. Firstly, SF1 Strength, a suspension trainer which can be set up in a hotel room, a park and other ‘on the go’ spaces. Secondly, Powerhands, a portable kit to build hand strength and dexterity, whilst reducing the risk of sports-related injury.

Gift Boxes for Master Chefs

If your dad is the master chef of the family, they might appreciate some gourmet ingredients. Can we suggest a gift set or products from The Truffle or a flavoured Asilia Salt bundle to add a twist to mealtimes? Another option is a gift box from Green Kitchen Preserves, where you select three jams and/or chutneys from a list of homemade delights. These could be the perfect accompaniment to their bakes and BBQs.

Air Guitar Champions Sorted

Is your dad a collector of vinyl, a musician, always at a gig or an air guitar champion? If their passion is music, you could find the perfect gift on Suck UK, The Chord or Truffle Shuffle.

Socks & Beer

Now, if your dad really does love a new pair of socks, there are some great options out there. Our suggestion is Socks in a Box for soft and sustainable bamboo socks that bring a splash of colour to their wardrobe.

And, if you can’t top a pint, then explore a locally brewed beer as a welcome change from the supermarket staples. We’re sure you’ll find some great micro-breweries close to home, but here are a few to whet the appetite: Cronx Brewery, Chiltern Brewery, Vale Brewery and Brewpoint.

All Set for Father’s Day

Father’s Day is celebrated on Sunday 16^th June, so there isn’t much time to find the ideal gift box for your dad. We hope this article has helped you think outside the box and find something original to give. And remember, none of these are exclusive to dads. You might spot a super present for a friend or something to treat yourself!
