A gift for Dad: Here's how you pick the right one

Gifting Dad that perfect present for either Christmas, his birthday, or Father's Day can be tricky when you don't know where to start. With so many gift ideas for Dad, read on to see which might be the best one for him.

What is the best gift for Dad?

It depends on the occasion that you’re buying for, and of course – on Dad himself and what you think he’d like! While some reserve that special gift for birthdays, others set aside a larger budget for Christmas, so it’ll depend on what works best for you.

Start by having a think of what Dad’s in to or what he needs. If he’s into his fitness, he’ll love the latest Apple watch and AirPods so he can freely listen to his playlists without wires as he goes for runs or lifts weights, while keeping track of his workout metrics off his wrist. There’s also sports massage guns to soothe aching muscles after exercising.

If Dad loves a good Christmas BBQ he’s going to love cooking up a storm on a Weber BBQ this year! There are also many savings on tech gadgets which could make the perfect gift for Dad – a new phone on the 5G network, a new tablet for watching on the go, or if Dad loves his TV, it might be time for an upgrade!

What are the best Christmas gifts for Dad?

Dad’s most wanted gifts is a good place to start, but if Dad hasn’t hinted at what he wants for Christmas, there are plenty of Christmas gift ideas he’s sure to appreciate and put to good use.

If he’s a bit of a master chef, there’ll be an appliance Dad could do with, like a Smeg stand mixer to effortlessly knead dough for his pizzas, or a great dessert machine like an ice cream maker from Cuisinart! He might even want the latest Nutribullet blender for his protein smoothies, or a George Foreman grill for quick and healthy midweek meals. And if he loves a good coffee, he can get his fix from fresh coffee beans with the DeLonghi or Breville manual coffee machines.

For his home or portable audio, have his gift sorted with a set of headphones like the popular Bose QuietComfort noise cancelling headphones for work or downtime, a home wireless speaker such as the ones from Sonos, or a new LG soundbar to kit out his home entertainment setup.

For the dad that has everything – what are some gift ideas?

If yours keeps up with the latest trends, chances are he’s likely to have the electronics he needs for everyday living. You can, however, still pick up a unique gift for Dad that he’ll love – like a turntable and latest release LP records of his favourite band which would make an awesome gift for Dad!

For dads that are the outdoorsy type, there are electric scooter from brands such as Ducati, and because he’s also likely to love outdoor entertaining you could get him a portable Bluetooth speaker. He may have a fitness tracker, but if Dad wants to change it up he might want a smart watch for his specific sporting activities like the ones from Garmin.

Functional items for grooming, or personal care foot and neck massagers make great gifts. If Dad is a gamer and has a gaming room setup, he might want portable gaming on the go with a Lenovo gaming laptop. But if Dad is too difficult to buy for, the best gift can be simple – let him choose with a gift card!

What’s a good gift for a new dad?

Whether you’re wanting to gift a new dad on Father’s Day or soon after newbie has arrived, gifting a new parent is a such a heartfelt way to let them know they’re supported. It could be a personal gift or a gift for home to make life easier in those first few months.

To help keep his health and fitness top of mind, he may appreciate a Fitbit watch to work towards some personal goals to be his best. For his downtime, if he’s a gamer, maybe a new gaming headset or gaming keyboard would be appreciated, or even an iPad for catching up on his TV show between nappy changes!

A new benchtop cooking appliance such as a slow cooker or pressure cooker with a recipe book is a thoughtful way of ensuring they’re looking after themselves with easy-to-prepare meals. And for that much-needed caffeine fix the morning after a sleepless night, he’d probably love a Nespresso capsule coffee machine for quick operation and enjoyment of a full-bodied espresso without the wait.
