One moment, you’re building pinewood derby cars with your father and the next he’s walking you down the aisle. As long as the days might seem, the years are shorter than you think. I try to live my life in a way that I have minimal regrets, and I can say with certainty that despite the fact that my father was gone too soon, I had the kind of relationship many people long for. Despite the non-traditional roles displayed in my childhood home, I never questioned my father’s commitment to his family. It was displayed in his work ethic and relationships and how he spent his time.
This Father’s Day, I encourage you to celebrate the dad in your life. Celebrate the long hours he works to ensure his family is provided for…celebrate his wisdom and correction…celebrate his selflessness when he chooses family first. My own father never wanted recognition or acknowledgement for all he did, but my mom and I found it important to let him know that his constant strength, love and support did not go unrecognized.
To help you celebrate that special dad in your life, I’ve put together a gift guide which includes the Best Gift Ideas for Dad. These gifts are meant to take care of these men both mentally and physically.
Nourish His Body: Does the dad in your life enjoy a good workout? Is his skin in need of rejuvenation? Many of the gift ideas I’ve included aim to help dad take care of him. Whether he’s just starting to work out or is a marathon runner, dad will love a set of ear buds and workout shoes to inspire him to continue caring for himself. After his workout, make sure he’s caring for his skin with Dove+Men Care Products. The Clean Comfort Dry Spray Antiperspirant will ensure that he stays dry and odor-free for up to 48 hours, perfect for Summer workouts. Afterwards, give him the gift of clean relaxation with Dove Men+Care’s Clean Comfort Body and Face Wash, which is clinically proven to fight dry skin and lock in natural moisture for healthy skin.
Nourish His Intellect: Many men enjoy reading but forego it due to family and career responsibilities. Gift the dad in your life a book that will inspire, motivate, or simply engage him. Also remember to give him some time to delve into that book.
Nourish His Passions: Think about what the dad in your life enjoys doing when he has some downtime. Does he like to take scenic photos? Does he enjoy technology? A new tablet or smart watch may inspire him to take the things he enjoys doing to the next level.
Nourish His Relationships: Men need relationships just as much as women do. I encourage you to give a special dad in your life a gift card and a block of time (regularly, if possible) to spend developing and nurturing quality friendships.
How do you plan to show dad you care this Father’s Day?
