52 Of The Best Father's Day Gifts To Give In 2025

A pop-up Father's Day card for the dad who always seems stoic and reserved but will melt into a puddle of love the second he opens a card from his favorite child. (That's you!)
Poems of Parenting, a book of relatable poems that'll have any new or seasoned parent laughing, crying, and feeling ALL the things. It perfectly captures what it's like to be a parent in today's world in hilarious but emotional sentiments he'll find himself showing to his partner like, "LOOK, THIS IS US!"
A rechargeable heated ice cream scoop so he won't have to wait for his Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey Ice Cream to soften before *literally* digging in. Not a moment to waste!!!
Murdle, Volume 1, a compilation of murder mystery–themed logic puzzles that are reminiscent of the ever-popular Wordle game. This version will encourage Dad to use powers of deduction and various clues to solve the mysteries throughout the book. Sherlock Holmes, who?
Self-heating soothing foot masks made with Epsom salts, lavender, and peppermint (ooh, la, la!) that'll transform any ol' day into a spa day — they'll get him *back on his feet* and feeling refreshed in no time.
A bee-proof and drip-free copper hummingbird feeder will indulge Dad in his newfound interest in bird watching (which would explain all the texts you keep getting about the American Goldfinch) while adding a beautiful new addition to his outdoor space.
A Cremo "Vintage Suede" body wash reviewers say smells just like Tom Ford — it's filled with scents of white moss and rich amber and will make every shower feel like a luxury (which Dad totally deserves after a day of parenting).
A reusable smartnotebook to seamlessly combine his love of handwritten notes with the ease of taking them digitally. (Here's to you, Rocketbook app!) As he writes in this seemingly magical notebook, his notes will *also* be recorded in the app. Is it 2025 or 3025?
An NHL puck–shaped glass coaster that'll pay tribute to his most beloved team *and* finally get your husband to stop leaving his darn beverages to sweat all over your coffee table while he's engrossed in a game. Get it together, Dad.
A fan-favorite Carhartt baseball cap with over 8.4K 5-star reviews to replace the dusty, dog-chewed one Dad is always wearing to cut the grass or drop the kids off at school — it's about time he had a fresh one, don't ya think?
Fry-shaped clips that'll bring a new meaning to the term "chip clip" — they come in a magnetic lil' box Dad can stick directly onto the fridge for easy access (no more digging through the junk drawer while his beloved Cool Ranch Doritos get stale).
A Ponytail Palm you can jokingly gift in remembrance of that time your dad grew his hair long enough to put up in a ponytail, but your mom hated it with every fiber of her being and BEGGED him to cut it off. May this easy-to-maintain tree live longer than Dad's divisive beauty statement.
A set of glass spice containers featuring built-in retractable spoons because Dad (and the rest of your family's tastebuds, for that matter) still hasn't recovered from that time he accidentally added salt into his recipe instead of sugar. These will ensure he adds *just* the right amount (and ingredient) to his meals.
A lightweight Veer All-Terrain Cruiser stroller/wagon with a ton of practical accessories and configurations that'll make it an integral part of all your family's outdoor excursions from now through the fall! Dad can load it up and hit the playground like he would have the *~clurb~* back in the 2010s.
A "Grateful Dad" tee that'll perfectly encapsulate his love for "The Dead" and his devotion to making sure his lawn is the most flawless one on the block. A two-for-one gift to check ALL of the boxes.
A "Beverage Buddee" can cover he can add to his Coke Zero can (my dad's fave), his preferred seltzer, or the Coors Light that's become synonymous with his request you grab him a beer. It'll keep bugs and other random debris out of his drink (yuck) so he can enjoy it while getting stressed out over the Yankees.
Papa Doesn't Do Anything! — the latest installment in Jimmy Fallon's picture book series devoted to family members like "Dada, "Mama," and "Nana." Have your kids sign (scribble/draw a rainbow/etc.) on the inside and present it to Grandpa with a big ol' hug on Father's Day.
A mouthwatering charcuterie gift tower packed to the brim with anything and everything your spread-loving dad could possibly want as a Father's Day snack. We're talkin' spinach dip, olive oil mini breadsticks, flatbread crackers, Mountain View Farms' cheddar, an array of fancy olives, raspberry honey mustard, hot pepper jelly, marinated artichokes, and cinnamon glazed almonds. Y-U-M.
The I Love Trader Joe's Cookbook complete with 150 recipes, all using ingredients Dad can pick up at his beloved supermarket of choice. He can spend the next month cooking up a storm!
A neck reading light that'll be easy on the eyes, simpler to manage than a clip-on light, and be a welcomed addition to Dad's nightly routine of falling asleep while reading his book.
A ThermoPro wireless meat thermometer with Bluetooth capabilities that'll let Dad know his steak is *perfectly* cooked to his liking — no more second guessing when he's workin' the grill while also trying to entertain guests with endless witty banter.
A classic bocce ball set like the set your grandparents had growing up that'll bring back fond memories for them and help you all create new ones together.
A vintage-style six-in-one Bluetooth record player that'll let Dad live out each and every one of his musical eras — it can play vinyl records, CDs, cassettes, the radio, *and* can connect to Bluetooth to utilize that Spotify or Apple Music subscription he's been yammering on about.
Plus, an acrylic vinyl holder to store some of his favorite records while also showing anyone who sets foot in your living room what great taste in music he has. Hope your friends are ready for an education on Meat Loaf and Def Leppard.
A Lego Land Rover Classic Defender 90 for anyone who has always dreamt about owning this timeless vehicle and would happily settle for one made from Lego Bricks.
A golf club–cleaning squeeze bottle complete with a nylon brush that'll ensure Dad's clubs, golf balls, and shoes are the freshest-looking ones on the course.
A cult-favorite G-Shock watch with over 18K 5-star reviews, sure to "wow" your hard-to-impress Pops — it's super durable (a must for any dad who is hard on, well, everything he owns). It has a bunch of practical features like water resistance, shock resistance, stopwatch, alarms, and world time Dad will surely appreciate.
A spooktacular popcorn maker and bowl that'll pair perfectly with his BIG Slasher Summer plans (a.k.a. when he forces the entire household to partake and the horror flicks give everyone nightmares). All he'll have to do is pour kernels into the "skull" and let the microwave do its thing for three minutes. Then, voilà! He'll have eight cups of popcorn to toss all over the couch when Michael Myers once again sneaks up on a precious, unsuspecting teen.
An indoor-outdoor hammock chair with the ability to soothingly rock Dad or Grandpa to sleep for a nice midday nap or make him feel like he's on vacation even if the kids are running laps around and screaming simultaneously.
An outlet light, because chances are your dad is TOTALLY over accidentally walking into walls when getting up in the middle for a glass of water — this lil' gadget will subtly light his way without the need for a bulkier option. As a bonus gift you can even offer to install it for him...how thoughtful of you!
An airplane phone holder your Frequent Flyer Father can clip onto the tray in front of him whenever he travels — no need to *only* choose from the handful of meh movies the airline is showing. It can also be used at home whenever he wants to watch Nonnas, We Live In Time, or whatever other movie your mom has been trying to get him to watch hands-free.
A beautiful Haws watering can and mister set because it's about time we acknowledged how serious your dad is about his gardening. He can use this top-of-the-line can to water his easily-could-be-prized tomato and zucchini plants and the mister to keep his lil' succulents happy 'n' thriving.
New Balance 990 V6 sneakers for any dad with *~rizz~* and a sense of style — they aren't your stereotypical "Dad shoes," these will turn heads and announce to the world he's not a regular dad; he's a cool dad.
A T-shirt with a racetrack on the back, so Dad can lay on the floor of the playroom and have a quick rest while simultaneously entertaining the kids. A win for everyone, if you ask me.
On-theme bottle labels you can use to toast to any dad's first Father's Day. Simply apply to them to Dad's favorite bottled beverage, pop 'em in the carrier, and *boom* cutest gift ever.
Waterproof playing cards, so he can get a fierce game of Go Fish going without fear of the moment the kids inevitably spill their drink all over the table.
A fishing rod rack your happily retired grandpa can attach to the back of the garage door to ensure nothing ~fishy~ happens to his beloved rods.
A pre-seasoned Carbon Steel Griddle that'll change Dad's grilling season forever — and extend it throughout the year! This bad boy can be used directly on the grill *and* gas, electric, and induction stovetops. It has sloped sides to prevent grease from escaping *gestures wildly* everywhere (phew, less cleanup) and is, honestly, going to have the entire family begging him to make smash burgers weekly.
A pickleball set to pay homage to his new favorite hobby! It comes with two paddles, four balls, and a bag to ensure he has the best-looking gear of all his competitors. Your hot streak is about to be OVER, Mom!
And a pickleball tote bag with a specific attachment to store paddles, plus ample space for balls and accessories so he can focus on crushing his smack-talking neighbor Steve instead of rummaging through an unorganized duffel.
A pack of Old Fashioned Cocktail Tea Bags so Dear Old Dad can whip up his go-to cocktail, kick back, and relax after dealing with all of you and your siblings' nonsense for the majority of his life. All he'll need to do is steep the bag in cold water and a spirit of his choice (bourbon is recommended, but it can also be made as a mocktail) until the majority of the bag dissolves. Cheers to that!
A filtering straw that'll keep any grinds from traveling up, out, and into Dad's mouth. This happened to me recently while sipping on an iced instant coffee... I promptly had to rinse my mouth out. Spare him this unpleasant experience, will ya? Not only will this straw filter out any debris, but he can also use it to brew coffee *directly* into any mug or cup (for cold brew). Genius.
A Fellow Aiden Precision Drip Coffee Maker you and your siblings can all contribute to with confidence, knowing it'll blow the very old school carafe Dad has been using to make his coffee for eons out of the water. This one has the same ability to make a big ol' batch like Dad loves to do for the fam, but likely without the risk of starting a fire in the kitchen (seriously, his coffee pot is SO OLD). This one is sleek *and* can also whip up a single pour-over cup, in case Dad feels like being selfish once in a while.
Or, Oxo's compact Brew Rapid Brewer that'll have any dad wondering, "Where has this been all of my life?" He can toss it into his work bag and literally make cold brew or hot coffee at his desk after surviving the carpool lane — it doesn't need to be plugged in or charged!
A heated eye massager complete with five different massage modes and Bluetooth sound so Dad can fully indulge, relax, and catch up on his favorite podcast while relieving pain from eye strain and headaches.
A Saucemoto dip clip, because eating fries while parked in the car just tastes better and Dad shouldn't have to sacrifice his favorite dipping sauce to do so! I can't think of a better lil' gift to give your pal who can often be found eating Chick-fil-A in between driving his kids to and from soccer practice.
A 44-piece Mjölnir toolbox your Dad will love if he's the one everyone asks to fix everything — if he's *also* a Marvel fan, he will have an absolute ball reaching for Thor's mighty hammer the next time he has to put together a dresser.
A Nintendo Switch OLED with a 7-inch screen, a wide adjustable stand, enhanced audio, and an overall pleasant gaming experience dads will be thrilled to crack open after a day of tending to little minds, working on cars, answering phones, or typing up emails (whatever it is he does for a living in addition to keep his OWN kids alive). Purchase a low-stakes game like Super Mario Bros. Wonder or take a more ambitious approach with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom to leave the lingering stressors of his day behind.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom — The Complete Official Guide — an absolute must-have for anyone who has been playing (and loving!) the latest installment of the saga. Even if your partner has already beaten the game, this will get him all kinds of compliments when his pals/fellow gamers spot it on the coffee table.
A set of anti-slip glasses holders Dad can count on to *literally* support him throughout the entire day — he won't find himself making that infamously nerdy "pushing-up-my-glasses-because-they're-sliding-down-my-face" move anytime soon.
A luggage drink caddy that'll attach to his wheeled luggage — it'll be a saving grace when traveling if your dad likes to be the one in charge of holding onto everyone's passport and boarding passes along with EVERYTHING else. He can use it to hold his Dunkin' coffee, phone, ID, etc., and prevent him from fumbling around for all those items while heading to the gate at the airport, family in tow.
And a set of Loop Engage 2 earplugs explicitly designed to mute all kinds of noise, so Dear Old Dad can get what he really wants this holiday: a break. Fear not, though; they won't make him completely soundproof, so, unfortunately for him, he'll still be able to hear you ask him to help you look for the TV remote (that he's sitting on, as per usual).

It's still the weekend, but it's the end and it comes so soon. Weekend's twilight. In some ways, Friday can almost feel more like a weekend than Sunday. Friday night is filled with promise. Sunday night is a quieter affair (and if you've had a Sunday fun-day you might be ready to hit the hay early). Whatever you're doing this Sunday, let's take a moment to knock out this Wordle first.

STEAK wasn't a great opener today, leaving me with 240 possible solutions and two yellow vowels. CRANE put both of those in green but left me with a whopping 17 remaining words.

With no points for beating one another, the Bot and I get 1 a piece, leaving us with June totals of: Erik: 16 points Wordle Bot: 10 points The word "thrum" dates back to the Middle English period (14th century), originally referring to loose ends or threads, especially the leftover warp threads on a loom. It likely comes from the Old English þruma, meaning "edge" or "fringe," possibly related to þrumian, meaning "to murmur" or "hum" — which later influenced the modern sense of a low, continuous sound (like a thrum of engines or fingers on strings).
