Father's Day gift ideas for his self-care — For a happy Happy Father’s day!

Self-Care for Him

Online I always see articles about self-care for women but rarely do I see any for self-care ideas for men. This is a great idea to focus on for self-care items this Father’s Day.

Why not pamper him this year? Here are some luxurious and enjoyable gift ideas for him. Spoil him!

Fun Sock Subscription

Give him the ultra-unique gift with a social cause attached: a fun monthly sock subscription that also has the wonderful built-in bonus of donation. For every pair of socks delivered, a pair is donated to the homeless. Society Socks is a wonderful company that is committed to helping the homeless in the United States and Canada. They report that socks are often the least donated item so their generous donation is perfectly fulfilling a deep societal need.

Your dad, step-dad, grandpa, or husband will get two high-quality pairs of socks every month, and two pairs will be donated by Society Socks to the homeless. The socks are super fun with different designs. And they are very comfy to wear (even I have a pair;)

All Things Massage

Massage is always a great way to relax and relieve stress. It can be manual (partner or kid hand-driven) or it can be automatic with a handheld device. Here are a few items I’ve had great success with that men would surely love to receive.

SheaMoisture Coconut & Hibiscus Bath, Body & Massage Oil | 8 oz.

My husband and I both love the smell and feel of this massage oil. It’s just so pleasing and delicious smelling. It’s a great aroma and will relax both the one receiving the massage and the one giving it as the aroma is just so elegantly delightful.

Luna Rechargeable Personal Wand Massager – 20 Patterns & 8 Speeds – Travel Bag Included – Perfect for Muscle Tension, Back, Neck Relief, Soreness, Recovery – Pink

This massage handheld device is great for helping relieve muscle tension and soreness of the back, neck, or anywhere really. It can really pinpoint and hone in on a specific sore muscle spot. It’s a great little device and it comes with a travel bag. I love how it is conveniently rechargeable rather than using batteries.

Self-care Father’s Day Gift Ideas for Bathing

Taking a bath or shower is so refreshing, so adding a gift that enhances the experience will be a great self-care gift for him. Here are a few suggestions I have that have had a great effect on self-care for the men of my house (I have a husband and three sons;).

Old Spice has really expanded their selection choice of men’s shower care products. They have so many wonderful smelling shampoos, shower gels, and deodorants (though I don’t think a man wants deodorant as a gift! HA!) With so many to choose from, shower gels make a great gift or perfect addition in combination with another gift.

Old Spice Hydro Body Wash for Men, Smoother Swagger Scent, Hardest Working Collection, 16 Ounce (Pack of 4)

For Him for the Bath:

Men’s Bath Bomb Set of 12 by Crate Bombs

Bath bombs aren’t just for women, get him his own set of these lovely scented bath additives so he can have his own collection to enjoy. This is great for the man who loves to soak, I know there are some out there who do;) Perfect for after a day of yard work or after a workout for him to relax those tired muscles.

Cologne for Him

Cologne is always a great gift for men. They may not use it everyday, but it’s nice to have it when they want it. There are so many choices on the market, here’s one my husband and boys love.

Give Him the Gift of Reading

To many people reading is self-care time to recharge the body and mind. Many men enjoy holding an actual book, but the convenience of having it on his phone is unmatched as he has a book in his hands at all times. If he’s sitting waiting somewhere, getting some reading time in is as easy as pulling out his phone with the Kindle app. This is also great because the books load right on to your virtual bookshelf in the app so you don’t have bulky books taking up space in your house.

Reading is such a great way to relax too so buy him a few books from authors he loves and he will enjoy the fun and recharge of reading a good book. Whether he has a kindle or not, he can enjoy ebooks easily with the Kindle app for the phone.

Some authors many men enjoy reading are Stephen King, John Grisham, John Sandford, Amor Towles, James Patterson, and Dave Stanton to name a few.

Audiobooks

Audiobooks are a great gift for any busy man. He can listen to them while doing gardening, yard work, while exercising, or while relaxing in a hammock, or nestled into the soft hug of the couch. It’s a very soothing past time to listen to books.

Get Him a Hammock for Father’s Day

A hammock is the perfect gift for him. They have so many on the market, and some very reasonably priced. My boys all bring their hammocks camping and set them up around the campsite. They also work great hanging from decks posts or trees at home.

Buy Him a Self-Care Self-Help Book

Now, I have not had the pleasure of previewing this book yet, but I want it. The title it funny and I think men would enjoy a book like this so it’s on my list to get for my husband. I think he will get a kick out of it.

Father’s Day Gift Ideas for Summer Use

Since Father’s Day is in the summer, get him something he can use in the summer to enjoy the nice weather. There are so many options, including the hammock listed above, of course, the books are perfect too for leisurely summer reading.

Buy him a float to enjoy the pool, lake, or river. This way he can lounge and enjoy himself. We have both of the ones below and have enjoyed them.
