Hi Friends! Is it just me or is May one crazy month?!?! With all the end of school year activities, Mother’s Day, Prom, and two of our kiddos with birthdays…it is a busy month. It is such a fun time of year as we celebrate our loved ones and prepare for summer break. Speaking of summer break, it is hard to believe that Father’s Day is just around the corner. And…if you are like me…I don’t like to wait until the last minute to do my gift shopping. Waiting till the last minute leaves me feeling scrambled and never fully satisfied with my options. Starting early allows me plenty of time to explore my gift-giving options and find just the right gift.
Dads are always the hardest people to shop for. You never really know what they want, and neither do they in all honestly. Some dads want everything for fathers day, while others pretend they don’t want anything (then complain when they’re not given the world). The easiest way to approach Father’s Day is to start by thinking of things that they NEED, before moving on to what they WANT. Maybe even going down the DIY route could make it easier, as it is the thought that counts at the end of the day. Some fathers may prefer something like a tshirts quilt, for example, instead of an expensive Rolex watch. Buying gifts doesn’t mean having to break the bank. Some items may come under both categories-if so, I think you’ve found your gift. There aren’t many items that a dad both needs and wants, but a good security system for his home makes the list. Many homeowners are now installing a home camera system as an added security measure, and what better time to give a parent the gift of safety than on Father’s Day? If you’re looking for a security camera system to gift your old man this Father’s day, you might want to check out these home security cameras reviews to help you make the right choice.
Sometimes it can be useful to look at your father’s interests and try to come up with some ideas from there. For example, my best friend has decided to buy her dad a personalized golf trophy. He has always loved golf and so after searching online for trophies for golf enthusiasts, she managed to find the perfect gift for him. I thought this was such a unique idea that I just had to share it with you.
