By Steven Harrisson, November 11, 2021

Nothing is a better gift for a father than to spend time with his child. Father’s Day is the perfect opportunity to honour your father and enjoy his company. But if you wish to show your appreciation with a gift, it can be difficult to choose. However, rather than go for something typical and a little bit cliché, like a mug that says “world’s best dad”, you are probably looking for something more original, to make this special day even more memorable.

Craft Beer Gifts

Not many special days can go by without a few cold ones. Beer is the favourite alcoholic beverage of so many Australians, but also for many around the world. But, being the most popular alcoholic beverage in the world isn’t the most impressive thing about it. Beer is also the third most popular drink overall – right after water and tea. This beloved drink has been around for millennia, and it has played part in many cultures of the world. And nowadays, it plays a huge part in the everyday lives of millions of people across the globe.

Sharing a beer is one of the most common symbols of friendship, love and celebration. This is why it’s always a good addition to any get-together, no matter how small or big it is and regardless of whether it’s for a special occasion or not. So, if you are looking for a beverage for Father’s Day, beer is probably your first choice. 

Father’s Day gifts for beer lovers are great, but they can become even more special when they are shared during a lovely time spent with your child. But rather than getting any mass-produced beer from the supermarket, you can choose Father’s Day craft beer gifts, to mark this beautiful occasion for honouring your hero. 

Craft beers are the better choice, because they offer many choices and because they always feel like a more original option. This is one of the reasons why they have become so popular in recent years, as well as why so many people have started homebrewing. And you like beer yourself, you can make sharing a couple of newly discovered craft beers over some nice and fun conversation a Father’s Day tradition. And if you are planning something even more meaningful, for which craft beer gifts don’t seem enough, you can always make it a part of other activities, or add something more to the gift. 

Multi Function Tools

Another great place to find inspiration for a gift for your father is your childhood. If you used to go on trips in nature with your family as a child, whether you were going on camping trips or you were simply hiking, you can make Father’s Day special by recreating one of those trips. Of course, your Father’s Day craft beer gifts can be a great addition to your adventure, but you can also buy him a present that will not only remind him of the good times but may also inspire a future tradition. 

There are many different types of tools that you can get for spending time in nature, and survival multi function tools can cover several of them in one compact, versatile, and very useful item. Featuring different types of blades, scissors, files, wire cutters, screwdrivers, bottle openers, rulers, as well as other useful things for many different purposes, multi tools can be the perfect gift for your father.  

But outdoors adventures are far from the only activity for which a person can use a multi function tool, because as the name suggests, these multi tools offer multiple functions. More importantly, they are also compact, which makes them easily portable. Because of this, they are one of the best everyday carry essentials that you can find on the market, so your father can have one in his pocket, for any situation in which he might need one of the features it offers.

In other words, these convenient and versatile multi tools can not only be a part of survival gear, but they can also be used for different types of hobbies, and many other everyday activities. So, if you decide to get a multi tool as a Father’s Day gift, you should make sure that it comes with the tools that your father might need. 

RC Vehicles

So, while simply sharing a beer and a meal and talking for hours can be a great day, you can enrich it by adding a fun activity. However, if you or your father don’t like camping, there are other fun things you can share, such as driving a remote control vehicle around the yard or the neighbourhood. This can help you evoke and recreate cherished memories from your childhood, create new ones, while waking your father’s inner child, or while having fun with your father and your children.

Regardless of whether he is an RC enthusiast, or you have never talked about it, this is a hobby that can be fun for anyone of any age and can help you give your father the perfect Father’s Day. Moreover, this can be your father’s new favourite pastime, something he can do any other day of the year. Aside from being a great way to spend time with loved ones, the RC hobby is also a great way to unwind after a hard day, have fun, and de-stress. Moreover, it offers many other activities, such as attending RC events, racing, upgrading, or repairing an RC truck, car, truck, boat, or any other type of vehicle. This also means that it can be a great way for your father to use his multi function tool.

To make this gift feel more memorable, you can find an RC vehicle that has some kind of special meaning to both of you. It can be an RC model of a car, boat, or another vehicle, which your father owned in the past, he used to take your family on trips or maybe one that he always wanted to have. Alternatively, you can get any type of remote-control vehicle that you think will be fun to drive around.
