Simply The Best - Father's Day Presents That Are Better Than All The Rest from GettingPersonal.co.uk

8 June 2009

Have you ever considered that your dad might know more about you than you know yourself? He was probably there at your birth (or at least, not very far away!) and he saw you through your first few years, changing your nappy, wiping away your tears and tucking you into bed at night. He'll even tell you where you were when you said your first words and took your first steps, and how cute you looked on your first day of school.

As we grow up, our dads take a practical role in our upbringing. Whereas our mum is there to give us the hugs and listen to our worries, dad is there to help with our homework, decorate our room and give us lifts in his car! Of course, dad is so fab that it's sometimes easy to take a little advantage of his generosity along the way. The latest trend in family life is 'kippers' - Kids in parents' pockets eroding retirement savings! We're so comfortable in the family home that we stay around beyond our 20s and 30s, meaning poor mum and dad end up with less money for their retirement than they would otherwise have. Then there are boomerangs - kids who just can't get enough of mum and dad that they keep on coming back for more!

Fortunately there are special days set aside in the year when we can give our thanks to our parents for all the sacrifices they have made for us. So when Mother's Day comes around, we reach for the flowers. But when it comes to Fathers Day gifts, it's never that easy. You really want to tell him he's the best, but a cheap pair of cufflinks, a box of hankerchiefs or a car cleaning kit just never seem to cut the mustard. Well luckily, now there's a range of Father's Day presents that are so original and irresistible that your dad is certain to say they're the best he's ever had.

Tell Dad He's Simply The Best

If you're looking for Father's Day presents that will make your dad feel like the star he is, look no further than the range of polished glass paperweights, beautifully designed to immortalise your messages of love and thanks. With messages such as 'I love you daddy' and 'Dad you're a star' embedded within stunning colourful designs, he'll have something from you to treasure for ever. If you want to surprise him with something even more unique, there are Fathers Day gifts that allow you to personalise your own message within an authentic recreation of a newspaper headline. The personalised Mirror headline gift offers you the chance to create your own 'Father of the year' article using personal details of your own dad - just the thing to stun him into silence on Father's Day!

Special Gifts For Sporty Dads

Then there are Father's Day presents which are quite simply every bit as special as he is, particularly if he's a sports fan. For the avid golfer, what could be more special than their very own personally engraved brass golf putter to make them the envy of the golf course? There's plenty to keep football crazy dads more than happy, such as the 'ultimate football fan' gift pack, containing everything he needs to keep him indulging his passion for hours, including his very own personalised football news story. And if he's a motor racing fan, watch his reaction at the amazing zero gravity remote control car. Modelled in a choice of stunning red or black, this magical boys' toy has the genius ability to defy gravity, driving up walls and even across ceilings!

Father's Day Presents With A Difference

Of course, there are those that would say that the best Fathers Day gifts are ones you can't even wrap. Particularly if he's the kind of dad who has everything, experience days can make the perfect gift. This may just be the perfect opportunity to give him the thrill of a lifetime with a race around the Silverstone circuit in a Ferrari 360. Or if he's still a young boy at heart and loves to get down and dirty in the mud, treat him to the dumper racing experience day, when he can charge across country on his own dumper truck, sharpening his skills and racing against the clock to beat his competitors! Experience days make fantastic Father's Day gifts and don't have to cost the earth, with a selection for under £50. Why not make an occasion of it and go for the photographic portrait gift pack? This is one way to give your special dad priceless memories of you and the rest of the family.
