The key to selecting last-minute gifts for dad is finding the perfect match.
Consider his interests: From home cooks to outdoor enthusiasts, there are all types of dads. Thinking about your father’s hobbies and interests is one of the best ways to find a gift he’ll use and enjoy. For example, if he likes to work out or participates in sports, exercise equipment or athletic shoes are great Father's Day gifts.
Be practical: From grooming items to comfortable shoes and clothes, you can’t go wrong with a practical gift that he’ll use on a daily basis.
Try something unique: If you're looking for a gift with a wow factor, think outside of the box. Maybe he'd enjoy a new way to play his favorite music or would like to trace his family tree with a DNA test. Perhaps he’d like to try a new activity, such as flying a drone.
Appeal to his new dad status: Most new dads are adjusting to being fathers while enjoying fatherhood, so a gift that helps him care for his little one is a thoughtful choice. Strollers, baby carriers, car seats, baby slings and other accessories fall into this category.
