Best Way to find Father’s Day Gift Ideas

With Father’s Day just around the corner, experts say the key to finding the right gift is to develop a plan for coming up with Father’s Day gift ideas. It’s all about understanding the man and listing his interests.

Once you have a good list of hobbies and interests, it becomes much easier to search the internet for ideas and products that fall within those categories. Typical gifts for Dad usually relate to power tools, the office or the golf course. But, to be a little more creative, experts suggest developing a profile.

Without trying to think of any gifts, first simply make a written list of all of the hobbies and interests of the Dad in question. You’ll be surprised with how many you may come up with. Common items might be various sports, both watching and participating, reading, cars, movies, music and so on.

If you man is into cars, check into some type of driving experience like NASCAR or the Richard Petty Driving Experience in Florida. A google search on topics like this may come up with things in your local area. Expand the search to include off-road, or 4 wheeling etc.

Does he like airplanes? Yes a pilots license is expensive, but many local airports have small flight schools (called FBOs) which typically sell “discovery” flights for about $50.00. It usually involves a flight lesson with an instructor including some ground instruction, performing a pre-flight inspection of the aircraft, and then about a 30 minute flight during which “Dad” flies the airplane under the direction of the instructor. You’ll never get the smile off of his face.

Finally, don’t overlook something few men will ask for but everyone would enjoy – a massage. There are many day spas in local areas which offer a 1 hour, full body, relaxing massage for about $30-$50. Really, what could be a better treat on a day meant to be a relaxing break for Dad?
