3 Gifts Any New Father Will Love
Author: Melissa Maypole
Father’s Day is a special time for any dad; but for a brand-new dad, the occasion is especially note-worthy, so it warrants an extra-ordinary gift. Forget the ties and the gadgets; what a rookie father needs is a gift to remember. This year, consider one of the following gift ideas that will forever remind the special guy in your life of his very first Father’s Day celebration.
- A Photo Gift
Photo gifts are great for just about anyone. After all, who doesn’t want to show off photographs of the special people in their lives? For new dads, however, photo gifts are the perfect keepsakes to capture the first precious moments, days, and months of fatherhood. Thanks to web sites such as www.seehere.com , www.snapfish.com, along with virtually hundreds like them, you can turn just about anything into a photo gift from the convenience of your computer. For the coffee-drinker, consider a photo mug; for the workaholic, how about a photo desk calendar? You get the idea; photo gifts can be tailored to meet the personality of just about any new dad. Add a cute pic of his new addition, and you really can’t go wrong. - A Daddy Diaper Bag
In case you haven’t noticed, there’s a change occurring in families across the nation. More and more guys are becoming stay-at-home dads while their wives bring home the bacon. Even if this isn’t the case for the guy you have in mind this Father’s day, rest assured he’s going to be more involved in his kid’s life than his father was. That means dad gets to schlep baby across town for grocery shopping, doctor’s appointments, and trips to the park. Save him the embarrassment of donning a cute, pink, polka-dotted tote, and get him something more manly instead like The Land of Nod’s Diaper Dude Dad Bag. - A Parenting Book for Dad
Who said kids don’t come with instruction manuals? There are plenty of them on the market today, and quite a few are targeted to a male audience. As dads are becoming more and more involved in their children’s lives, they can use the extra help. For a serious dad, try Colin Cooper’s A Dad’s Guide to Baby Care, or for the guy with a sense of humor, consider My Dad’s Got Mojo, by Gary Bertwistle. Remember, just because he never asks for instructions, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t need them!
No matter which gift you choose for the new dad in your life, remember to offer your appreciation as well; not for what he’s done, but what he’s bound to do over the course of the most exciting time of his life—the next eighteen-plus years!
