Best Father’s Day Gift Ideas

Lighting has some fun options right now that dad will love. My husband is obsessed with these Hue smart lightbulbs from Philips. We are gradually converting our whole house because there are so many different options to use them. I just love that you can turn them on from your phone. No matter how you use them, they’d make a great Father’s Day gift!

Take movie night to the next level with this Movie Night Popcorn Seasoning Set. This comes with a variety of popcorn seasonings and popcorn varieties so you can enjoy your movie with some truly gourmet popcorn.

My family is obsessed with Hyrdo Flask water bottles. You can fill them up with ice and they’ll still be cold 24 hours later! The quality of these are amazing and they make so many fun accessories for them so you can adapt them the way you need. We love this Hydro Flask model with a straw because it makes it so much easier to get your daily water intake in.

We discovered these hand grip strengthened last year and they have been so helpful during times when you are stuck at a desk or have any sort of downtime. They exercise your hands and you can choose from different strength levels so that you can gradually build up strength. These make a great gift idea. My family has like 3 sets and they are used all the time.

For the dad who is a Star Wars fan, this “You Are My Father” mug would make a fantastic gift idea. This is such a fun nod to the classic film and mugs are such a practical gift that can be used daily.

You’d never know by looking at this ring but it is made of silicone and is super breathable. If you haven’t discovered Groove Life rings yet, they are the gold standard of silicone rings (and they have a great guarantee that will even replace rings if you lose them). This wood patterned Groove Life ring would make a great Father’s Day gift!

We have gone through a whole lot of portable chargers at my house and the myCharge Portable Adventure Charger is by far the best one. This sucker is waterproof, rubberized, and charges your devices insanely fast. This is perfect for travel or just keeping on hand for a quick charge when you are away from home during the day.

Fitness trackers can be great for so many things and the Fitbit Charge is a very affordable option with some great features. The sleep tracking features Fitbit has are some of the best I’ve used and the slim design of the Fitbit Charge is a great option.

Minimalist wallets are the way to go now that we have so many options to pay for things electronically. I never carry cash anymore so it doesn’t make sense for me to carry around a huge wallet and my husband carries even less. Thread makes some amazing minimalist wallets and they come in some amazing styles so it is easy to find something that fits your personality.
