What can you give dad?

Father's birthday or other holiday is one of the most important days that is close to the heart of each child. From the age of five, we are all pretty old enough to understand the hard work and effort that father put in to lift us up and help us achieve great heights in life. Our hearts are filled with extraordinary love and respect that we want to show through our gifts. And so the gift must be thoughtful and unique.

Gifts to the father - is not easy. A man (unlike a woman) does not need a thousand pairs of shoes, a set of trousers and cosmetics for each part of the body. It is better to immediately clarify - what he is passionate about, what are his interests.

There are things that should not be presented as a gift. There are not so many of them.

• Medications. Such a gift would be an allusion to the weakness and ill health of a man.

• Animals For the pet you need to get out, follow. He must be fed. Otherwise, the animal will quickly be on the street. Only payment for an animal already selected by the father is allowed.

• Socks. You should not give such a primitive gift.

• Shaving foam. It is bought as it ends, and not for the holiday of the father, regardless of whether he needs another foam or not.

• Underwear - it is indecent to give.

• Things that can not be given conditionally. These are watches (they count the time), knives (lead to quarrels), a handkerchief (will cause tears). However, these items are awarded. But as if selling them to a birthday man or hero of the day for symbolic money. For example, for the ruble.

There are many ideas that can be presented to the father as a gift. Consider the most popular.

This is the most common idea. However, such a gift will always be unique if you insert into the album photographs from the past of different family members, complementing them with appropriate inscriptions or quotes that will not be forgotten the next morning. You do not need to be a graphic designer or have any artistic skills to make a photobook look beautiful.

The combination of modernity and memories for those people who are not afraid of new technologies.

Another common idea. However, it requires a little more time to implement it. This is a unique form of appreciation that is worth considering. You can independently make videos in which there may be reviews of his father’s friends about him. Or mount his old records in a new way. In general, there are unlimited possibilities for the manifestation of fantasy. Or order a movie from professionals.

Photos of all family members placed on the tree, which displays all family ties. This idea is especially interesting for those who are interested in genealogy.

A subject that measures the passage of time can simultaneously resemble certain events of the past. Such a gift is guaranteed to cause a lot of positive emotions.

If your dad loves to travel, give him a book about faraway countries that will inspire and mobilize him for the next trip. The trucker father is an excellent book about the places he frequently visits. Such books are always interesting.

Traditional and new board games in a more exclusive edition are a good idea. You can attach engraving to them. For example, "The most intelligent, beloved dad."

Maybe Dad sometimes wants to get a "lazy" breakfast in bed - you can gently offer him on a tray with legs.

Another unusual idea, but certainly not for everyone. If your parent is not afraid of such a trip, he will not forget it until the end of his life. Such a gift can be made on the anniversary, on the Day of the Border Guard (especially if the Pope served in the border troops) or on the Day of the paratrooper.

You can give a father or two with mom. The package can include two nights with breakfast and dinner at the hotel. Parents can take advantage of a relaxing massage, choose a hydromassage and relax in the wellness center.

Any cruise on one or two (with the helmsman on board). For many, this will be a return to youth.

Cups with inscriptions know (and have), probably, everything. Glasses are something new.

Relatively recently, wine sets have become a very popular gift.

A good wine is suitable for any occasion. Even better when it is in an elegant box. And it is desirable that the wine was your own making. Yes, and with your own special labels. And if you also write the date when to open the wine.

Alcohol in decorative bottles - for example, 12-year-old brandy cello brandy or brandy in a bottle with Napoleon's bust.

In it, you can put everything you think. From flowers, coffee, chocolate and local delicacies to the variety of things described above.

All certificates for parents issued by their children are a gift with a certain sense of humor. But still very personal (if you write the content yourself). A great gift idea for fathers who have many other serious diplomas on the walls of their offices.

Some people may laugh and say that this is stupid, but there are dads who will love such a gift.

If cufflinks are too expensive for you (or your dad, in general, does not wear them), you can think of a men's bracelet.

A watch with an engraved inscription or quote can also be an interesting idea.

The inscription "Best Dad", engraved on the carafe, is also a kind of decoration (like the Oscar, only more useful).

If your dad uses a brush (there are still such people in the world), this is a gift for him.

A great idea for professionally active parents who always write or sign something. You can make an engraving on the pen itself or just on the box. Such an elegant gift can be presented to the boy's father (when meeting).

If your dad loves mushrooming expeditions to the forest, he will certainly be happy with a new mushroom knife - preferably a folding one, with a curved blade and a brush for cleaning leaves, needles and soil.

If your dad is a big coffee lover, you can hand him accessories for making a coffee drink or just a bag of fragrant ground coffee. When it comes to coffee making equipment, there really is a lot of opportunity. You do not need to buy a large and expensive coffee machine - sometimes a small coffee maker is enough to make truly fragrant and tasty coffee.

A father who is a fan of Asian cuisine will surely be happy if you give him sushi accessories. It can be a whole set or any of its elements - a serving board, bowls, bamboo mat and others.

Mug with the slogan "Russian Gate!", Glasses with football symbols, a thermos with a specific team or a special wig. These and other fan things can be a great gift for dad, who is closely following the fate of his football team. Every fan of football will certainly be happy with such accessories.

The father likes to spend more time at home, can not imagine his life without neighbors, whom he willingly invites to a barbecue, cooked on the balcony, and his favorite entertainment - TV? Choose a gift that matches his lifestyle.

Maybe he would like a classic hammock. All you need is a few meters of fabric that is resistant to different weather conditions, and a place where you can attach a hammock.

An interesting gift for bibliophiles will be an unusual, interesting book, preferably an anniversary or collector's edition.

For fans of puzzles or simulation, we will find a lot of interesting large and small sets for layouts or gluing.

For music lovers, it would be a good idea to buy a daddy’s favorite artist’s CD or a vinyl record, which has again become popular.

An interesting gift will be a cool cup of the original form - in the form of a grenade or lens, a hammer or a screwdriver.

Before your dad pours a cold beer into a glass mug, he must first open the sealed bottle. Help him with this: give him a bottle opener. Small, but very useful gift. It can be a classic opener or in the shape of an airplane, bicycle, treble clef, bullet or guitar. Some openers have a magnet that allows them to hang on the fridge so that they do not have to search for a long time.

If your dad complains about classic ice cubes that, when added, dilute a drink, give him cooling drink cubes made of metal or stone. They will cool the drink well, but they will not dissolve or change its taste. In addition, they are reusable. After each use, you only need to thoroughly wash them. Ideal for various types of drinks and whiskey.

It is worth buying a decanter of whiskey with glasses and cooling cubes, which will allow you to serve alcohol in the right condition. Thick glass and cork protect the drink from the loss of valuable aromas and keep it cool. You can choose a decanter in the classical form or try to buy its more fanciful forms in the form of a gun, a skull, a bow tie.

Although "New York is always a good idea," the price of airfare to the United States is expensive. It may be worthwhile to supply your father with a small substitute for a trip to America at an affordable price.

Present your father with a UAV with video registration. This interactive toy from the world of science fiction, maybe, will help dad, as if to fly over the city himself.

If your dad loves old cars, stays in the garage for hours, picks his car, and then launders his hands for a long time, realize his father's dream of getting a real drive and let him feel the wind in his hair. Rent a top car for one day.

• Choosing a gift for the father will also be easier if he is an avid angler. It is worth thinking about special shoes for fishing, good fishing line, fishing net or a set of floats.

It allows you to draw in air without having to twist your body and take your head out of the water. Thanks to this device, you can focus more on muscle work and proper body movement.

• Sport shoes. If your father spends his free time preparing for a marathon, reading tips for runners, buy him decent sneakers.

Pay attention to climbing equipment. Try to choose a durable material from a special polyester, with a waterproof coating, especially from the bottom.

• Guitar. Every time when dad goes down to the cellar for a jar of pickles, he sentimentally looks at the old guitar with a broken neck. He will be happy if you give him a new model of the tool. You can choose branded professional models. Iconic guitars, such as Ibanez, Fender or Gibson, are more likely a tool for professional musicians. But why not give your father the best and timeless?
• Cinema without leaving home. Dad's hobby: to relax in front of the TV screen. Cinema in the living room of the father is possible. Add a soundbar speaker system to your old TV. This setting will definitely improve the sound quality and create the feeling that you are in a movie theater. Its design is made in such a way as not to take up much space.
• A great idea for a gift will be the presentation of items of modern electronics. The phone or tablet will surely please the father. Men love the new advanced technique.

Any, even very expensive gifts will be discounted if handed over in a hurry, without proper packaging and accompanying speech from the heart.

And on the contrary, small souvenirs can seem very expensive if the situation of their presentation is thought out. A beautifully wrapped gift with a card that can be signed by everyone who gives this gift is ideal. Previously gave it that way. Today, this rule is forgotten.

If you add small additions to the presentation, the effect will be even stronger. For example, accompanying a solemn moment with beautiful music or a song. And also it is important to wear a corresponding outfit for the holiday. Suppose, instead of the usual tie, wear a bow tie.
