Father's day is celebrated each year in June. Whether or not you are a parent, it is highly likely that you know at least one father. Becoming a father is an important event. Father's Day should always be celebrated and cherished, but it is even more important for new dads. When it comes to selecting a Father's Day gift for a new dad, there are a wide variety of different options to choose from.

Many new dads receive traditional gifts. These traditional gifts often include a shirt, tie, or hat. While new clothing is often appreciated, there are other gift ideas that are available. In fact, aside from traditional gifts, there are many gift ideas that go unnoticed. These gift ideas are often the most unique and exciting ones. Below is a list of three popular, but unique Father's Day gift ideas for new dads.

Autographed Handprint Baseballs

A large number of men are sports fans. There are a number of online retail stores that sell baseball hand printing kits. These kits are a unique and exciting father's day gift idea for new dads.

Most kits will come with a standard regulation size baseball, ink, and a baseball display case. Once at home, a baby's first hand print can forever be displayed on the baseball. Due to their small size, baseballs are usually the best type of balls to use; however, other sporting equipment can be used for a baby's first handprint.

The kits used to make this amazing father's day gift can be purchased for as low as $25. In addition to purchasing a ready-to-go kit, individual items can be purchased from most retail stores, nationwide.

Tool Belts Just for Dad

On any given day, a large number of fathers can be seen out in their garage repairing their vehicle or working on a home improvement project. Parenthood is an exciting experience, but it can be life changing for many first-time fathers. A great way to bring a sense of normalcy and fun to fatherhood is with a new father tool belt.

New father tool belts can be purchased from a wide number of online retail stores or they can be custom made at home. Most new father tool belts come standard with a simple tool belt and a combination of baby accessories. These accessories often include diaper wipes, a pacifier, a bottle, and diaper changing instructions. Other fun accessories, such as goggles or plastics tongs, can be added for a touch of humor.

New father tool belts can be purchased for around $20. They can also be made at home for about the same price.

Diaper Vest for Dads

Traveling with a newborn often requires the carrying of a large amount of equipment. Most parents cannot travel with their children without brining along a diaper bag. Diaper bags are popular accessories seen on the shoulders of many new moms and dads. That was until the development of the diaper vest.

A number of online retail stores are selling diaper vests. The diaper vest is sold under a wide variety of different names. No matter what the name, the ideas behind the vests are the still the same. Most vests come standard with a large number of pockets. These pockets are often designed to hold a number of important baby essentials, including a bottle, a pacifier, diapers, and baby wipes. New fathers with the diaper vest will no longer have to carry along large diaper bags.

The cost of a diaper vest will all depend on the product manufacturer, style, and color. On average, a diaper vest will cost around $50.

A new dad will likely be excited with any gift that they receive for Father's Day. It is often the thought behind the gift that counts, not always the gift itself. Even though your husband, boyfriend, son, brother, or friend may appreciate whatever gift you choose to give them, why not give them one that they will be proud to use and display?
