Gift Ideas For The Family Man

What do you get for the Dad that is like Mr. Mom? You know the type.. the Dad who is doing everything for/with his kids!  It's easy- we have searched the web and have come up with the best ideas. Our ideas range from sentimental to useful gifts that this type of dad is sure to love. And like always, we have provided you with a link of where you can buy them! 

12 ways YOU make a difference:  This is one of my absolute favorite gifts as it is so personal, touching and bound to make your dad cry (yes, men cry!).  The book prompts you to fill in each page with different sayings such as "My favorite memory with you is...", etc.  You can tell Dad on 12 pages how much you love him and every way that he has made your life better. We found this at Uncommon Goods for $28.   

Picaboo Photo Book:  I love this idea! All you have to do is upload your favorite pictures of you and Dad, and customize your very own digital photo book for him.  You can customize each page with different layouts, thought bubbles, text etc.  Picaboo has good examples of different page layouts and ideas on their site. Take a look! The books end up looking like they were professionally done and are a keepsake that Dad will have forever.  We found this at Picaboo for $30.

Photo-Opoloy:  If your family plays a lot of board games, then Dad will definitely love this gift.  It is so cool! It is like Monopoloy but better, because you can customize the theme to make it anything you want.  You can make it a family game and put your family's pictures on each of the pieces of property "Julia's bedroom".   This game will definitely make it special for Dad each time you play. We found this at Amazon for $20.

Learn to Ride Caricature:  Even if riding bikes is not "your thing" with Dad, you can create any caricature that you want to make the picture picture of you and Dad.  Simply select from one of myDaVinci's templates or email them what you like.  Dad can hang this photo up in his home office, in the den, or anywhere he likes.  It is a humorous yet awesome gift to give.  We found this at myDaVinci.com for $77.

Kulana Lua Tandem Bike:  This is such a practical and fun gift that you and Dad can enjoy together. If your dad is like Brad Pitt (you know the type who loves to cruise around town with his children in tow)  than he will love this gift!  Dad will also love the fact that he can still feel in control even when you are out biking together- as he is the head driver :).  We found this at Walmart for $240.

Audio/Video Homebase Message Center & Digital Frame: This is one of the coolest gadgets and most practical gifts for any parent.  Dad can record audio messages for Mom saying, "took Liam out for a ride, be back by 5" or write post it notes on the message board. Plus it comes with a digital frame that you can place a picture of you and Dad in.  We found this at Amazon for $125.

IOU Cards:  This is such a great gift for little kids to give to the dad they drive crazy.  This set comes with 12 cards that range from "I owe you one snuggle and I'll try not to squirm" to the practical "I promise to take a nap even if I don't really need one". Trust us, Dad will appreciate these cards and will even take the kids up on the offer. We found them at Giggle for $15.
