Father’s Day is right around the corner, and instead of the ordinary go-to’s like ties and gift cards, go the extra mile this year, and get something Dad will truly enjoy. We have some great ideas that are a bit outside of the box, and also allow you to get involved so you can spend some quality time together.

1. For the Dad in need of relaxation: Do Good Hammock
Dads work hard and need some rest and relaxation. This hammock is made to fit one or two people to soak up some sunshine. Equipped with a nylon carrying case, this hammock is also easy to take on the go. (let me know if you think I should add the aspect of the fair trade)

2. For the Health Conscious Dad: High Tech Water Bottle
Make sure Dad stays well hydrated with this techy water bottle for the health conscious dad. This smart water bottle uses lights and sounds to keep track of water intake as well as to encourage hydration throughout the day. Clear LED lights allow Dads to track their consumption throughout the day. The spill-proof bottle also has a hands free clip which is perfect for the active Dad.

3. For the on-the-go Dad: Portable, Splash-proof Speakers
Whether he is camping, doing yard work or relaxing on the beach, this portable, splash-proof speaker is a great gift for Dads who are on the move. Small enough to fit into your pocket or bag, the Omaker M4 Portable Bluetooth 4.0 Wireless speaker can play music for up to 12 hours. This speaker allows Dad to relax and listen to some tunes wherever he goes.

4. For the dad who has everything: Subscription Box
Struggling to find your Dad the right gift this year? The Bespoke Post subscription box is a great option for the Dads who have it all. This box can be given one time or as a subscription, you also have the option of picking out the boxes for Dad or allowing him to pick his own. All subscription and gift boxes are limited editions and revolved around a central theme.  Boxes from Bespoke Post include ties, whiskey, grilling sets, shaving kits and more. Even if your Dad has everything, you’ll be able to find a unique and thoughtful gift.

5. For the Grill Master: Grilling collection set
Barbeque season is here; make sure Dad is ready to fire up the grill. The grilling collection set from Mouth.Com includes a cedar plank grill set, Carolina barbeque sauce, a sea salt spice blend, bourbon smoked black pepper, and a smooth whole grain mustard in a cotton tote bag.  Dads will be so excited to receive this gift; they may end up grilling out for a Father’s Day barbeque!

6. For the Beer-loving Dad: Beer-Making Kit
This is perfect gift for the Dad who enjoys a cold beverage. The beer-making kit is ideal for beginners and comes with all the necessities to brew your own beer at home. The kit is also reusable and may become a new hobby for Dad.
