I remember my husband's first Father's Day - he was a pro at daddyhood, but gift ideas were elusive. The secret? Aligning the gift with his likes: shoes, cars, Star Wars. Our list includes heartfelt, budget-friendly ideas like a framed handprint, novelty socks, or a customizable grill plate. Consider a book like 'Why a Daughter Needs a Dad' to boost his confidence or matching shoes to share his sneaker obsession. These gifts, blending personal touches with his interests, promise to commemorate his first year beautifully.
