Especially in these unusual times when
many of us will be unable to visit an elderly
loved one, we want to make sure our parents or grandparents know
how special they are to us. With
Father’s Day just around the corner, let dad or grandpa know that while they
may be out of sight, they are not out of mind.
So what is a good gift that lets him
know he is not forgotten? As you know
dad best, ask yourself if he’s a guy who loves practical gifts, tech toys or
something on the humorous side? I know
many dads may not buy one themselves but would love a plush new bathrobe; so why
not personalize it with a monogram? If
he is more of a t-shirt kind of guy, order him a personalized shirt. A popular one has handprints with the names
of all the grandchildren and a message calling him out as “Hands Down Best
Grandpa,” or how about one that says “Great Dads Make Great Grandpas?”
If dad gets chilly and loves to fish,
how about getting him a cozy throw decorating with fish bearing the names of
his grandkids. Another idea is an indoor
gardening kit for the dad who loves to grow things. If granddad is a gamer at heart, how about getting
him a lap-sized Nintendo Switch. A
recent study showed in addition to fun, 3D-platform games can help improve cognitive
health. Don’t forget the gift of music
or audio books targeted to his interests, and if he doesn’t already own a set,
consider noise cancelling headphones for the ultimate listening
experience. If dad still gets around, a
step tracking device is a fun way to keep him moving.
