With Father’s Day approaching, Boots is embracing the Love for All Dads campaign and offering a diverse range of gifts for this special occasion. To provide some gifting inspiration, let’s explore presents for three iconic fathers: Father Time, The Godfather, and Father Christmas. Get ready for some gift ideas!
Father Time
I must confess, my knowledge about Father Time was limited, so I delved into some thorough research to select an appropriate gift for him. Upon discovering that he is often depicted as an elderly bearded man, I faced a dilemma: who would benefit more from a beard trimmer, Father Time or Father Christmas? However, when I learned that Father Time sometimes had wings, I considered a product to keep his feathers smooth. Additionally, he carries a scythe, which could be seen as a bit unsociable, so I pondered whether a touch of colorful hair dye, perhaps in pink, could make him appear less menacing and more approachable.
Yet, I decided against getting too carried away with his Father’s Day gift, as I didn’t want to choose something he would later need to return. Even though he has all the time in the world, he wouldn’t want to waste it going back and forth to the post office to return unwanted items. Therefore, the packets of pink hair dye or the cross-body bag for safely carrying his hourglass and clock, which were my other ideas, will have to be set aside in the reject pile.
After careful consideration, I settled on a gift that I knew Father Time would appreciate. Given his extensive lifespan, anyone who has been alive for over twenty years would surely welcome this item on their bathroom shelf. I chose the No7 Men Protect and Perfect Advanced Serum, specifically formulated to target deep lines and wrinkles. No7 serums have earned a reputation for delivering effective anti-aging results, and this one is no exception. It effortlessly glides onto the skin, allowing for easy application under any moisturizer or sunscreen. It’s the perfect addition to any skincare routine, offering impressive results without any hassle. If you manage to convince Father Time to give it a try
The Godfather
Did you know that Boots offers a wide range of activities and experiences that can be purchased as gifts? From exhilarating supercar driving to thrilling aeroplane lessons, breathtaking helicopter rides to competitive clay pigeon shooting, they have it all. However, considering the nature of The Godfather, I decided to forgo activities involving firearms and instead considered paintballing as a suitable and safe alternative. The Godfather and three of his friends could choose a convenient paintballing location and engage in a friendly battle, knowing that it won’t spark a New York mob war.
The Boots website is like a treasure trove of experience gifts, catering to nearly every type of dad. You can opt for a thoughtful and relaxing afternoon tea if that suits their taste, or you can go all out and surprise them with an extreme adrenaline-pumping experience. The choice is entirely up to you, whether you want to be nice or playfully challenge them.
Father Christmas
I doubt anyone would have ever considered buying Father Christmas a beard trimmer before. It would seem presumptuous, as we all know he prefers to keep his beard long and fluffy during the holiday season. However, what about the times in-between? Do you think he really wants to carry around that massive beard all year long?
Introducing the Philips Series 9000 Prestige Beard Trimmer with Steel Precision Technology and BeardAdapt Sensor. This is no ordinary beard trimmer; it’s the epitome of luxury and precision. With its sleek steel body and weighty feel, it’s like the Rolls Royce of beard trimmers. Even just holding it and taking it out of its case is a sensorial experience, one that I found quite enjoyable, despite not having a beard myself. Well, not much of one, anyway.
