When it comes to holiday gifting, we all want to be a super Santa. We scour stores and scope out sales to find that perfect gift for our loved ones. But some people are easier to shop for than others, and dads can be among the most difficult. While it’s easy to get them a new tool, tie, or tech device, those gifts don’t offer the personal touch that makes a present truly special. Shopping for dad doesn’t need to be a daunting task, however. Here are three gift ideas fathers are sure to love this holiday season.
Home Improvements
A man’s home is his castle, so why not give it an upgrade? Just take a walk around the yard and you’ll get plenty of gift ideas. Do you have a stained sidewalk or a dirty deck? Is the exterior of your house being haunted by unsightly black streaks or marked by mold or mildew? If so, scheduling a power washing appointment would make a great gift. Dad will love the fact that his house and property look like new, and he didn’t even have to lift a finger to get it that way. So, take off the Santa hat and pick up the phone and call Peak Power Wash to schedule a professional power washing in honor of your father. And at Peak, we only use biodegradable and environmentally friendly cleaners, so he won’t need to worry about any damage to the lawn.
A Day Out
Sometimes the best gifts are those that make the most memories. For a one-of-a-kind gift he’ll never forget, give him a dad’s day or weekend trip to his favorite destination. If he’s a football fan, get him Ravens or Redskins tickets and pair it with a jersey. Opening day tickets to see the Orioles or Nats would be a home run, especially when it comes with memorabilia autographed by Cal Ripken, Jr. or another childhood hero. For fathers who are more sportsman than sports fan, charter a fishing trip on the Chesapeake Bay and cap the adventure with a seafood dinner along the Inner Harbor. Books make nice gifts for history buffs, but he’ll get a new read on the past when you take him to a reenactment at Antietam or Gettysburg.
A Day In
If dad has enough adventure and excitement in his life, offering him rest and relaxation might be a gift he’s more geared for. Create homemade coupons entitling him a break from mowing lawns, trimming shrubs, washing sidewalks, or any other chore he’d rather avoid. Whenever he needs a rest, he simply cashes in a coupon, kicks back in his favorite chair, and watches you slave away.
The holidays are among our favorite times of year. As a family-owned-and-operated business, we know the importance of being around the ones you love. We wish our friends and clients the happiest of holidays, and we look forward to fulfilling all your power washing needs in the New Year.
