The Best Father’s Day Gifts
Here are the top five contenders;
1. Take Your Dad for Lunch or Dinner
Dads are simple beings, and yours will appreciate nothing more than some quality time with loved ones. Treat him to his favorite restaurant or engage in an activity he enjoys. This could also be a chance to help your dad awaken his inner child. Consider taking him to something he’s always wanted to try but never had the opportunity.
Here are some fun activities to consider:
-
- Shopping for a Wardrobe Update: Check out Woolworths, Mr. Price, or LC Waikiki for some stylish options.
-
Virtual Reality Experience: Try REV Virtual Racing Experience at the Village Market or Glitch Virtual Reality along Limuru Rd.
-
Go Karting: Let him experience some adrenaline at GP Karting Ltd.
-
Paintball Competition: Join in on the fun at Paintball Fury.
2. Buy Him a Customized Gift
A personalized item, such as a “Best Dad Ever” mug, wallet, or watch, is a heartfelt way to remind your dad how much he means to you. If time is short for customization, enjoy one of the activities above with him on Father’s Day, then surprise him with a personalized gift later. Check out Pablo Gift Shop and Purpink for great customized options.
3. Cook Him a Great Meal
Good food brings people together! Preparing your dad’s favorite meals—whether it’s pilau, nyama choma, chicken, or biryani—is a wonderful way to celebrate Father’s Day and show him he’s special.
3. Upgrade His Gadgets
Consider upgrading his phone, laptop, or even the family TV so he can enjoy his favorite games, documentaries, and shows on a better screen. A fitness-focused smartwatch from Oraimo could also be a great addition, especially if your dad is passionate about fitness and holistic living.
4. Book Him a Holiday
If it’s within your budget, a short vacation might be just what your dad needs. You don’t have to whisk him away to a far-off land—Kenya offers plenty of beauty and history, from game parks and conservancies to lakes and historic sites.
You can plan and book the trip yourself, or for a more hands-off option, consider using a travel company. Bonfire Adventures and Pollman’s Tours & Safaris Ltd offer budget-friendly packages you can explore.
