Best Fathers Day Gifts

1. For the high-tech dad: Kindle (Wireless Reading Device) Since buying the original Amazon Kindle last year, I’ve probably read three times as many books as in several previous years combined. I now recommend Kindle 2, 3 and up. Current Kindle models have several advantages, one of which would be: best ergonomics. They also have the best features and quality. For example, since Kindle 2, the device syncs your library to your Kindle 1 and your iPhone. This means (with Amazon’s free apps), you can read a book on your iPhone while commuting, and continue reading that book home on your Kindle, and it will know which page you stopped before. Don’t want to read but still progress? In a rather soothing (electronic) voice, later models Kindle can read many books to you. And these are just some of the features. Priced at $114. Learn more.
	2. For nature loving fathers, new Dads: Market or Garden Umbrella Decorative and functional Market Umbrellas shield your family from rays and raindrops. Adds elegance to your yard, patio or garden. What’s good about a market umbrella for Dad? He does not have to build that gazebo for family ‘al fresco’ lunch parties. Instead, he can just relax this summer, in the shade. $29 and up.
3. For New Dads on Baby-cuddle Duty: Large Quilted Hammock This one is extra wide so that you can cuddle beside him too. A new family get together. At $199 price tag, mom gets to chip in as well as all the siblings.
4. For New Dads, with Baby-feeding Night Duty: Polo Ralph Lauren Bath Robe What can I say: a great gift from a new mom to a new dad. I love the look, love the quality of Ralph Lauren, and love the multiple times he can use it: at night, on vacation, by the pool… Worth every penny and actually ALL dads will love owning one of these. The RL cotton robes are typically $45-50.
	5. For All-Business Dads: MBA Degree in a Box Fun & useful. Inexpensive at < $6.
