Father’s Day is coming up and if you’re like me you’ve waited until now to even start thinking about what to get your Dad. My Daddy, an expert father and pretty cool person, has shared with me some good ideas for what Dads like him would want for Father’s Day.

A Tie: A classic that never gets old. My Daddy has a huge rack of ties in his closet probably most of which were given to him by my mother, me and my sister for different occasions. When I was little he used to let me pick out what tie he wore everyday . He had this one elephant tie that I used to always choose. He got it years ago but I found the same one on a vintage website:

Photo Album/Crafty Project: Daddy said that these are “the best” because they’re heartfelt and one of a kind. I don’t honestly know if parents/grandparents/anyone ever means that when they say that stuff but if you’re looking for a free escape then go for it.

Ian Rankin Book: If your Daddy is awesome like mine, then he might like an Ian Rankin book. Daddy likes his detective story books.

iPad Keyboard Case: My Dad uses his iPad like it’s a computer, and with a keyboard case he would be able to type on it like one too.
