Great Gifts for Expectant Dads

July 25, 2008 by Paul Banas Leave a Comment

Still thinking about what to get Dad for the holidays? Let GreatDad.com guide you with our top recommendations of gift suggestions for dads. And, since we’re dads ourselves, we went beyond the usual suspects of slippers, ties, sports and other predictable presents to offer ideas that will not only surprise him but will let him know that you truly appreciate all he does. If he’s just about to have a baby, or has one already at hoem, there are a lot of cool things that look at parenthood from a dad’s perspective.

DadGear Diaper vest – $77.95 It’s amazing no one ever thought of this before, but the guys at Daisy Gear have come up with a striking modern vest that also has all the pockets a dad needs to store the stuff for a trip to the park or an afternoon at a museum.

Shake Away Latte – $7.99 We think this is one smart little gadget sure to please any new dad who has to travel with a little one. Put formula in one chamber, and water in the other. At the required moment, you move them together, shake and milk is ready. It elminates the need for measuring and mixing powder, as well as carrying multiple bottles.

Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks
Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks is a series of conversations with experts on all aspects of the family adventure. With the perspective that “dads don’t always think like moms,” our mission is to support dad voices and our slightly different approaches to parenting. We’ll try to find solutions to every day challenges like getting kids off the couch and making STEM classes available for both boys and girls. But we’ll also tackle bigger issues when they come. The one main theme will be to support dads in the most important role of their lives that of being a great dad. Connect with us at greatdad.com and watch the video version of these podcasts at YouTube.com/greatdadnews
