So get ahead of the game this year with our Father’s Day gift guide. We’ve got some great Hawaiian gifts for handyman dads, the businessman, outdoorsy types, and the dads in your life who already seem to have it all. Check off everyone’s wish list with a few quick clicks, right from the comfort of your own home!
Father’s Day Gifts for the Handyman Dad
Does everyone call the fatherly figure in your life whenever something breaks? Is he a superhero dad by day and handyman by night? If your old man is the next Bob the Builder, get him some gifts to help with his hobbies.
Some of our favorite Father’s Day gifts for the handyman dad are a:
- pocket knife
- tool tote
Pocket Knife
What dad doesn’t need a pocket knife? Being able to whip one out of their pocket whenever the kiddos need to open a box or have an itchy tag on their shirt is almost like a fatherly rite of passage. Plus, their handy work just got a whole lot easier. What can go wrong when he has a knife blade, nail file, keyring, toothpick, pair of scissors, and tweezers on him at all times? There are a couple of different designs to choose from, so you can find a Father’s Day gift he will love.
Tool Tote
Of course, not all problems can be fixed with a mini blade and some tiny tweezers. Get your pa a tool tote for his bigger projects around the house. When he has a tool tote, he won’t have to lug around a clunky toolbox that disturbs the whole family with its clattering and clanging. Reviewers love the Dickies tool tote since it has so many pockets and tool loops. Plus, hopefully, he’ll bring the tote on over to your place next time you need something fixed!
Gifts for the Businessman
If your dad spends all his time away from you answering emails and hopping on work calls, he needs to unwind a little. Even if he’s super passionate about his job, he could use a break once in a while just like the rest of us. Get him a Father’s Day gift that will remind him to set some time aside for himself and relax.
Some of our favorite gifts for the career driven dads in your life are:
- healing crystals
- neck and back massager
Healing Crystals
When Pops is constantly moving from one thing to the next, he doesn’t have time to cleanse his space and energy. Gemstones have been known throughout history to have healing properties and help bring positivity to all aspects of life. Gifting him with a Hawaiian gift like a healing crystal would help balance his mind, body, and soul and keep stress from taking over.
You can choose different ones based on his life, work, and struggles. If he has a hard time winding down at night or needs help in the sleep department, labradorite can help prevent sleep disruptions. Smoky quartz would be an incredible Hawaiian gift for any dad dealing with some work-induced anxiety.
Neck and Back Massager
After a long day at work, we’re sure your dad would love nothing more than to kick back and enjoy a nice massage. Now, he can have one at home every night, thanks to your Father’s Day gift! This neck and back massager is easy to bring on the go, so he could even use it at work, too.
Plus, it has a heating feature to give him the most relaxing, rejuvenating massage possible. When he’s winding down with healing stones and his own personal massager, no amount of due dates or deadlines could set him back.
Father’s Day Gifts for the Outdoorsy Dad
We’re sure everyone knows a fatherly figure who can’t get enough of all things nature. Whether he has a love for animals, a fascination for water, or a passion for the planet, get him something to help him be one with the Earth. Your Father’s Day gift will help him take his hikes or fishing trips to the next level.
The best gifts for the fisherman dad are a:
- Hawaiian art print
- megalodon tooth
Hawaiian Art Print
If your fatherly figure’s dream Father’s Day gift is a trip to Hawaii, you need to get him a Hawaiian art print. As much as we all wish we could fly our dads on a tropical vacation, that’s not exactly the most realistic plan (sorry, Pops). However, he can still feel the incredible energy of the islands through Hawaiian gifts.
This ocean art print shows off the gorgeous island of Maui and its surrounding waters. If his bucket list features Oahu, you can get him an art print of that island, as well. Until he can connect with the rich nature of Hawaii in person, he can live vicariously through his Hawaiian gift.
Megalodon Tooth
If your dad has ever dragged you on an early morning fishing trip, get him a Hawaiian gift he won’t be able to catch during his lap around the lake in his pontoon boat. You can wow him with a megalodon tooth. Suppose you’ve seen “The Meg.” In that case, you probably know how ginormous and scary, yet fascinating, these fossils are (we don’t think this movie provides accurate information about megalodons, but you get the gist).
A megalodon tooth is an excellent Hawaiian gift since they are found in the Hawaiian waters. Keeping this tooth in sight and on display will be a unique way for him to feel the energy of nature around him all the time.
For the Dad Who Has it All
We all know a dad who seems to already have everything he wants. Or, on the contrary, maybe he doesn’t really seem to want anything. If your dad doesn’t have a special hobby or wish list you can piggyback off, what should you do? When he already has everything he could possibly need, the best possible gift would be making new memories with his family.
Our Father’s Day gift ideas for the dad who has it all are:
- plan a family game night.
- take him to lunch.
Plan a Family Game Night
Nothing makes a father happier than seeing his whole family together. So how about bringing a little friendly competition to the next family gathering with a game night? You can pick all your dad’s favorite games or get him a new one like a cribbage board.
This scrimshaw Hawaiian gift will make nights with the family much more fun and bring the vibes of Hawaii right to your fingertips. Regardless of the game you choose, this new family tradition will be the best Father’s Day gift he could ask for. Psst, competitive sons and daughters, maybe you can let your dad win this time.
Take Him to Lunch
When your dad already has it all, show your appreciation for him with food. You already know he’ll love it (because who doesn’t love food?), and you can take him to his favorite spot to make it even more special. He will be so thankful for the delicious meal, and more importantly, the time spent with you. Plus, we’re sure he’ll appreciate you paying for lunch this time after all the years he spent packing yours.
See, finding the perfect Father’s Day gift for the fatherly figures in your life isn’t so hard after all. He’ll love his new Hawaiian gifts, and he’ll appreciate the thought you put into celebrating him. To all the dads out there, Happy Father’s Day!
