Father's Day Gift Ideas

As you might know, Father's Day is on Sunday. This week we will be featuring posts to help you properly prepare to honor your favorite men.

Last night we received a request from one of our favorite readers (Hi Shannon!) requesting gift ideas. We have lots of fun ideas. In fact, we have so many we are each going to write our own post. Check our the list below for Tracey's (aka Ben's) picks.

Grillin'


Grilling is an important part of the "Dad Domain". It is also an important part of summer. How convenient that Father's Day happens early in the season. Here are a couple ideas for the carnivore in your life. My personal favorite is the thermometer. This has been on Ben's gift list for the last 7 months. Maybe someone will take pity on him and buy it this month.

(1) Meat Shredder // (2) Bacon Kit // (3) Kebroak Hardwood Charcoal // (4) Infrared Thermometer



Sweatin'


Personal fitness trackers are all the rage right now. We talked about the Fitbit for Mother's Day but we thought that the Nike Fuel Band might be a little more manly. It tracks your steps and calories burned. Combine it with some new Nike kicks and the Polar H7 (which I received for Mother's Day) and you are set for getting in shape. If he is looking for something more intense, try getting him a membership to your local Crossfit gym.


1. Nike Fuel Band // (2) Crossfit Membership // (3) Polar H7 Bluetooth Heart Rate Monitor // (4) Nike Free Trainer 7.0 Shoes



Readin'


If your dude is like mine, he enjoys a good book. Check out Goodreads and see if you can find anything that matches his interests. Here are a couple of picks for the man library in my house.

(1) Outliers // (2) ESPN: Those Guys Have All The Fun // (3) The Book of Basketball // (4) The Prophets of Smoked Meat



Chillin'


Finally, a couple of ideas for helping Dad relax. There's a good chance my dad will be receiving the cotton candy machine on Sunday (thank you Amazon Prime shipping) and I know Ben would love the box set of ESPN's "30 for 30". Actually, that gift might be more for me. Have you watched any of them?! Check out Broke.
