- Handy Dad book– This fun book is full of fun ideas for dads to build with their kids. From skate ramps to tree houses, your family will have so much fun together choosing a project and building it with Dad. Maybe throw it in a tool bag instead of a gift bag and you’ve got a one-of-a-kind Dad gift he’ll remember forever.
- Engraved hammer-This gorgeous hammer from an Etsy seller has a wall plaque to store the hammer if he wants to display it and you can choose the personalization. I think something like “Here’s to building memories” would be a beautiful sentiment for a Dad with a young family.
- Personalized leather wallet– Another Etsy gift lovingly handmade by an artisan. This one is so cool because you can send a handwritten sentiment and have it etched into the leather wallet. How sweet is that to have your own handwriting in your loved one’s wallet? This is a memorable keepsake for sure.
- A kayak– This thoughtful gift sets the dad in your life up for some good down time out in nature when he needs to relax. I did some searching around and this is the most highly rated kayak on Amazon. People seem to love it and it can be used year after year. Every Father’s Day or birthday, you can gift your guy a day out on the water either by himself, with the kids, with friends, or get a babysitter and you can make it a date! Can’t go wrong gifting outdoor gear for your crunchy guy!
- Guy’s baby carrier- Can’t go wrong with this black Ergo Baby carrier for Dad. Works for most ages and is masculine while still being comfy and cuddly for Dad and baby. I also love this Osprey backpack for longer hikes with lots of storage space and a sun shield for the little one.
- Organic pillow– I have to be honest, I’ve given my husband a pillow a few different times as gifts. He has always loved them. It’s the gift that keeps on giving and needs to be updated every once in a while! This pillow has an organic outer shell and is adjustable for the perfect fill level.
- Organic Beard Grooming Kit: Look for a set that includes natural oils and balms to keep his beard healthy and well-maintained. This kit from Amazon also includes some grooming tools to keep that beard in top shape!
- Reusable Water Bottle: Opt for a high-quality stainless steel or glass water bottle that he can use instead of plastic. I kind of love this stainless Stanley with no straw. Don’t worry, it won’t make him look like a trendy suburban mom. 😄
- Solar-Powered Charger: A portable charger that harnesses solar energy is perfect for his eco-conscious lifestyle. He can take it camping or on bike rides or even trips to the city where stopping to charge can be tough. He’ll love this!
- Essential Oils Set: Choose a set of pure essential oils that he can use for aromatherapy. My favorite essential oils company is Edens Garden. Head to the website here and search for men. They have some good blends for guys, and I think the Gentle-men looks great! You can even add a car diffuser for your guy’s transportation and remove some toxins he might be breathing in from other car air fresheners.
- DIY Kombucha Kit: If he enjoys fermented foods, a kit for making kombucha at home will be a hit. This is such a cool kombucha making kit and has everything he needs to start his own brew ASAP.
- Hiking or Camping Gear: Upgrade his outdoor adventures with eco-friendly camping gear like a solar-powered lantern or biodegradable camping utensils along with this book of camping dad jokes
- Camping Weekend: Book a camping weekend at a local-ish camping spot he’s never been to before. It’s so fun to make connections with the earth in places that really aren’t that far away.
- Reusable Grocery Bags: Get him stylish and durable reusable bags for grocery shopping, preferably made from organic cotton or recycled materials. There’s just something about a super well made bag that can be packed up like a game of Tetris that men can’t resist.
- Herbal Tea Sampler: Curate a selection of organic herbal teas for him to enjoy a soothing cup of tea. You can even include a hand-thrown pottery mug and start an evening wind down routine where you have a cup of tea together. This Manly tea series by Adagio tea also looks kind of fun.
- Sustainable Kitchen Utensils: Replace his old kitchen tools with gorgeous teak utensils known for their sustainability and durability. Or get him a great kitchen knife like this beautiful layered nakiri chef’s knife.
- Fair Trade Coffee Subscription: Treat him to a some fair trade, organic coffee beans like this Lifeboost low acid coffee or some mushroom coffee if he might like to upgrade his focus and energy.
- Natural Skincare Set: Look for a skincare set made from natural ingredients, such as shea butter, coconut oil, and essential oils. This whipped tallow looks like a great all-natural moisturizer that guys might like (I think I might like it, too!).
- Compost Bin: If he gardens or is into composting, a stylish compost bin for the kitchen would be appreciated. This one looks really nice and comes in some fun colors or a good graphite color to blend into the background of your kitchen while still being a great way to improve your garden soil.
- Dad hat: Sometimes just a plain old hat, but a nice one, is just the thing for Dad. This Dad hat from Etsy is good looking and sure to make your guy happy.
- Upcycled or Recycled Accessories: Consider accessories made from upcycled materials, like a belt made from recycled tires. I personally love this Italian bike tire belt. It looks so good and how eco-friendly is that?
- Wool Shirt: Merino wool is all the rage for comfy, sweat-wicking, non-smelly clothing. It’s all my brother will wear! This merino wool t-shirt for guys is from ethical farms Down Under and will keep your guy happy and looking good!
- Parenting Book: If your guy is the type who is always striving to be the best he can be, support him in his efforts to be a great dad by helping him understand how to parent with your child’s healthiest brain development in mind. The book The Whole-Brain Child by Daniel Siegel is a bestseller and super highly rated. It should give you both something to grow into as parents. What a great gift!
- Audiobook membership: If he loves books or has a long commute, gifting him a 3 month Audible membership is a great way to augment his reading and/or driving time. Audible has lots of great audio dramas that aren’t available anywhere else and are highly entertaining.
- Pizza Oven: This is a pretty unique gift for the dad who already has everything! I had no idea you could order a pizza oven off of Amazon, but I found a few and this one is a wood-fired pizza oven from Solo Stove. It’s meant to be used in your backyard and looks like the start of a lot of fun family nights!
