Celebrate Dad
While it is true that Mother's Day garners a lot more national attention than Father's Day, make this year just as important to celebrate Dad and all he's done for the family. Dad deserves to be celebrated and thanked for all the unseen things he does — and his corny jokes! Giving him a special piece he can wear or use daily to remember just how special he really is to his loved ones will make his day. Classics like watches, money clips, or cufflinks are perfect for a timeless style, or choose a necklace, bracelet, or ring for a more fashion-forward father.
Custom Engraving for Unique Fathers
Did you know custom engraving is for more than just fine jewelry? If Dad's not big into wearing monogrammed cufflinks or dog-tag necklaces, consider getting him a swanky silver picture frame for his office engraved with the names of his children. The things you can engrave are as limited as your imagination! Consider what Dad will use often — is he a businessman who's always giving out business cards? A stainless steel engraved business card holder is perfect for him. Always on the road? Why not a special keychain with a message he'll see every time he gets in his car!
Don't Forget Grandpa!
Once your son has a child, Father's Day falls by the wayside for the older generation, and let's face it, Grandparent's Day (the Sunday after Labor Day) doesn't attract a whole lot of attention. Celebrating several generations of fathers on Father's Day will make all of the fathers in your family feel special, celebrated, and remembered. Gift Grandpa something he can pass down as an heirloom, whether it's an engraved money clip, a gold tie bar for his granddaughter's wedding next month, or a ring with the family crest. Honor him in a special way with a momento as fine as him!
"Dad, Are We There Yet?"
Ah, the age-old questions — "Are we there yet? When are we going to get there? How much longer?" Generations of kids have asked, and generations of fathers have come up with a multitude of diversion tactics. But it's good for Dad to still know the answer, even if he doesn't reveal his secrets! This year for Father's Day, give him the gift of a watch that's perfect for the office, a date night with Mom, and years of car rides with impatient passengers!
