The Chill Dad's Guide: Father's Day Gifts for a Fresh Start

Every year, Father’s Day arrives like a formality—a calendar event marked more by duty than desire. We search for gifts that signify care but settle for razor sets and cologne that fall flat because they’re too safe to be unique.

The truth is, most gifts miss the mark because, well, how are you supposed to compress decades of small, unspoken gestures into a single present? It might help to think of gifts as invitations rather than objects—a way to encourage your dad to reclaim what he enjoys and find pleasure in the simplest acts.

Best going away gift ideas

Whether you’re moving out of your parent's place or leaving your job, you might need some ideas for a going away gift. The purpose of a going-away gift is to thank the recipient for the time they have shared with you and to remind them of the time they will spend apart from you. No matter what your relationship is with the person, it can be difficult to choose a gift that will be useful and thoughtful.

The best going-away gift ideas are ones that are both sentimental and useful at the same time. It’s even more meaningful, especially to new graduates, if the present is tied to the recipient’s interests or work.

Holiday Gift Guide for a Teen Boy

Choosing a Christmas gift for a male can be pretty difficult when he doesn't specify exactly what he wants. It's even more so difficult when that male is a teen and your trump card (food) is already taken care of. So it pretty much leaves you with one question: What do you want your gift to say?
