I hope you were a nice son or daughter and already have a present ready for your dad. But, in case you don’t, here’s some suggestions you might find useful. It’s a bit late to be ordering online, but read on and you might get some last minute ideas.

5. If your father is into DYI and swears he can fix anything around the house, get him a Voice Recording Tape Measure. He won’t need to carry around that pen and paper (which he always loses anyway), because he’ll be able to record himself.

4. For the dad who is always in a bad mood in the morning, a Throw Alarm Clock. This clock requires physical violence to be turned off; it must be very satisfying to throw the troublesome noise making device to the floor. There’s 4 ball styles to choose from, so make sure you get the one for his favorite sport.

3. The Grilling Tool Light is perfect if your father likes barbecues. If he’s happily grilling something in the back yard and it gets dark, it might be a problem. Burnt meat and well done meat look the same at night. This flashlight for the grill makes sure dad - and all the guests - get to eat proper food.

2. Again for the fixer-dad. The Lil Guppie Multi-tool is a many-in-one tool for the crafty person, and it won’t make you stoop under its weight (have you ever tried carrying your whole toolbox with you, just in case?).

1. I don’t know about other people’s parents, but once every two days our house would get turned upside down: dad lost his remote. Now I moved out, so it doesn’t get on my nerves anymore, but I should’ve got him the Find One Find All key finder and remote locator. Any two devices from the range can find each other, so you can find your keys with your remote, or your remote with your keys, and so on. Just as long as you keep at least one of them in a place you can actually find it.
