Father's Day Gifts for Military Dads

 
Military Dads deserve an extra special Father's Day. And while Father's Day is not all about the gifts, some of these gifts will guarantee a smile from your military dad.
 
  • running-shoes
    Running Kit
    Running is something your military dad probably does all the time, but make his PT more special with some fancy footwear, socks and a pedometer. For a present that will really mean something, offer to run the first 500 miles with him.
     
    movie-ticket
    Tickets
    Create an outing for you and Dad by buying some tickets for a movie, concert, or game. Sure, you'll both enjoy the event, but the real present is the time you spend together.
     
    GPS
    GPS devices are flat out cool and just because your dad is a grown-up doesn’t mean he’s outgrown toys. Turn Dad's car into his own at-home Stryker with a cutting edge GPS system, or buy a handheld unit and go exploring together.
     
    scuba-gear
    Scuba Lessons
    Shortly after coming home from Afghanistan, one military dad we know decided that he’d had enough of the desert. He wanted to spend as much time in the water as possible. His family got him scuba diving lessons and they started going on island vacations together.
     
    american-flag
    Flag Cuff Links
    You know that dad loves his country. Let him show the world.
     
    father-coloring-book
    Coloring Book
    Yes, it’s a simple, inexpensive gift, but if you’re grown up, your dad may have missed his share of coloring with you. It’s never too late to spend that time together.
     
    Pre-loaded mp3 Player
    An mp3 player is a great gift on its own, but go the extra mile and load it up with his AND your favorite tunes. If all the music he loves is still on vinyl, get some digital versions for him. And don’t forget the songs you love, talk to dad about your favorite bands. He may learn to love them, too.
     
    Sun Glasses
    Give dad the movie-star treatment with some nice shades. It’s a gift that he’ll use almost every day. If dad is deployed to the Middle East, this is the kind of gift that will really make a difference.
     
    Lawn Games
    Turn your backyard into a vacation spot with some lawn games. Horseshoes, croquet, bocce are all games that dad can play with even the youngest of kids. He spends an awful lot of time making that yard perfect. Shouldn’t you all enjoy it?
     
    keys
    Video/Audio Key Chain
    Let Dad keep you, the kids and even the grandkids close with a special key chain that has pictures, video, or audio of the family. Every night before you all go to be put a new message or picture in the key chain. There’s no reason that you can’t make every day Father’s Day.
