Hi shoppers! At this point, it's likely that some gifts may not arrive in time for 6/18: it all depends on the retailer, the item, where you live, and how much $$$ you're willing to spend on expedited shipping.
So please enjoy our gift ideas, but understand that, for many of these items, you'll have to simply let your loved one know that their gift may be arriving *later*.
1. A lightweight Iron °Flask sports water bottle so your papa can ensure they're hitting their water goals in strides. Like many stainless steel water bottles, this one is double-insulated to keep cold drinks cool and hot drinks warm for what can feel like the entire day. What's cool about this one, though, is that it comes with a straw lid, sippy lid, and a twist-off looped cap to fit whichever drink they decide to carry with them! (Bye-bye, drinking a homemade latte through a straw!)
2. A Boka rechargeable sonic toothbrush, because your dad has been using the same frayed manual toothbrush forever and needs an upgrade. This one has activated charcoal bristles to help lift stains, and has a USB chargeable base, which means no weird cords on the bathroom counter.
3. A tiny three-bulb desktop plant terrarium that's basically any plant lover's version of Newton's cradle — by which I mean, it is simply waiting to spice up any desk or empty counter space! Your dad can use this to spruce up their office with some low-maintenance plants.
4. A beard bib, aka a perfect gift for any dad who wants their mustache and counters to look pristine at all times. This picks up stray hairs that would've fallen into the sink making post-shave cleanup a breeze!
5. A dad joke button for those moments when your father finds themselves too tired to lay down a so-corny-it's-good pun. They can press this button to do the work for them!
6. A juicer if your dad always rants and raves about the latest superfoods they've uncovered. This juicer is pretty affordable when put up against other juicers on the market — and it has over 5,000 5-star ratings from people who've loved (literally) juicing their greens to a pulp with this bad boy!
7. A sound machine that plays hours upon hours of white noise and nature sounds, so that your papa can finally catch the ZZZs they deserve! 🛌
8. And while we're on massagers, a 10-motor massage mat for those days when all your dad needs is to relaaaaax. This mat has two heating pads *and* it vibrates, so all they'll have to do is lie on this mat to warm up any kinks in their back and soothe their sore muscles.
9. A manual espresso machine that can make standard espresso shots, yes, but also fill your dad's cappuccino and latte needs! This machine is perfect if your papa loves their Starbucks order but needs an entry-level-friendly machine to make them a frothy, caffeinated drink that's just as good.
10. An outdoor pizza oven because I'm not implying that your dad has any favorite kids — but, mamma mia, you'll definitely rise in the ranks by giving your Italian food-loving dad the ability to make their very own pizza Napoletana right in the backyard.
11. A LifePro vibration plate that is the ultimate upgrade to anyone's workout routine. This plate vibrates to create full-body muscle contractions and activation, which is perfect if your dad doesn't have the time to go to the gym but still wants to get some movement in. Plus, TONS of reviewers say that this is plate is just the thing they need to help relieve joint stress and lower back pain after a long day!
12. An LED desk lamp with multiple light settings that, get this, has a wireless charging port at its base! So while your dad is working hard at their WFH setup, they'll be able to charge up all their smart devices. Plus, its neck position is adjustable, so that they can properly illuminate anything they're working on — whether it's their deadline or their latest hobby.
13. An enameled Dutch oven that they'll use endlessly, whether they're baking sourdough, stewing some veggies, or making a soup.
14. A mini projector — with a projector screen included (!!) — so that your cinephile papa can enjoy the gift of endless streaming! This projector plus a movie popcorn sampler is really all they'll need for an at-home theater experience — either inside or outside!
15. A grilling spice set, because it's the ideal gift for your grilling dad —whether they're a novice or a pro! These spices work well with meat, veggies, or fish. Plus, they come in smaller sizes so that your dad can test out different flavors without crowding their cupboard.
16. A soundbar to go with the new computer or TV your dad just got for their birthday. This soundbar is just 15 inches long, which is why a ton of people love using this in RVs or with their kitchen TVs.
17. A portable travel kettle if your dad is always on the go, but is very specific about their coffee or tea! This travel kettle has different heat settings for various types of hot drinks, keeps liquids warm, and has a thin shape that fits into any bag!
18. A Brightland Artist Capsule that comes with four different infused olive oils — like lemon, basil, garlic, and chili pepper — so your papa can add brightness, depth, and even a little heat to any of their meals. Honestly, just having these gorgeous oils with a great piece of sourdough is enough to make this one of the best gifts they'll receive.
19. A whiskey-infusion kit will let your dad's inner mixologist shine! This kit has various spices and wood to add a special touch to any whiskey, and your dad will surely love showing off their creations whenever they have friends over.
20. And a recovery bath soak that's chock full of magnesium to help with muscle recovery. This'll help soothe your padre's aching muscles whether they're coming in after a long day at work, recovering from an intense workout, or are trying to minimize the aches from the hike they went on.
