Scrambling to think of something to give your dad this Father’s Day?

Some father’s may be simple: a tie, an iTunes gift card, and/or dinner at his favorite steakhouse.  But, if you have a more pickier dad, or are just determined to break the mold, here are some gift ideas for what to give him this June 17th.  (Don’t worry, we’ll let you claim the idea was yours.)

For the Child At Heart – Rubik’s Cube Pencil Holder

Your dad is a little wacky, and never quite grew up.  But, that’s why you love him!  This Rubik’s Cube pencil holder at Perpetualkid.com for $17.99 will be just the thing.  A 4″x4″ cube this will fit all of his desktop supplies, with a magnetic side for paperclips!

For the Golfer – Garmin Approach Sports Watch

Is dad spending his Father’s Day on the green?  Is Tee Time the first thing on his mind every Saturday?  Make his day that much better by getting him this fancy Garmin Approach sports watch for $250.00.  It comes preloaded with more than 18,000 U.S. and Canada courses. Dad can measure individual shot distances and track how far you walk on the course. Approach S1 is golf’s first full-featured sports watch and golf GPS in one.

For the Chef – Boxing Gloves Oven Mitts 

You know your dad can knock em’ out of the park when it comes to whipping up something in the kitchen.  Let him feel like the heavyweight he is with these oven mitts made to look like boxing gloves.  He’ll get a knockout every time!

For the Drinker – Age your own Whiskey Kit

He doesn’t have a problem, but your dad knows one bottle from the other without issue in the liquor cabinet.  Tantalize his inner expert with this age your own whiskey kit from Binny’s Beverage Depot for $149.99.  With un-aged whiskey included this kit has everything he needs to feel like a pro.

For the Gardening Geek – Plantable Comic Books

This is not something you’ll see every day and your dad is just the father that will appreciate that fact.  After he admires the wackey garden-themed comics of the plant-themed super heroes like “the gardener” he can dismantle the book and plant the seed-infused pages to grow herbs and more.  For only $9.95 from Sprouthome.com this is a great gift for any dad.

For the Movie Buff – The Godfather Movie Quotes Book

Give him a gift he won’t be able to refuse, a hardcover book of quotes from the movie “The Godfather!”  One of the greatest movies of all time this will be more loved than just any old book to sit around the home.  Catch it off Barnesandnoble.com for only $8.86.

For any Dad – Your Time

Let’s face it, gifts are great but there’s one thing that every dad really wants this Father’s Day: time with you.  Take Father’s Day as the perfect opportunity to do that thing that you’ve both been meaning to do but have put it off for this reason or that.  Even if you’re not able to be together picking up the phone and saying “I love you dad, thanks” will mean a lot more to him than seeing it written on a packing slip or on a card.
