A Gift Guide For The Man Who Does Everything

Mr. Mom's sacrificed a lot to stay home and raise the kids, so why not spend a little extra time and love putting together the perfect package to let him know just how much he is appreciated?

shirt

Grant him a day away in style

Every stay-at-home parent (dads included) dreams of a little time away simply to enjoy the grown-up things of life. So why not plan a day out (perhaps on the golf course?) for your Mr. Mom and put together a package filled with golf shirts, golf balls and other accessories he might need for his perfect day off? This could work with any other hobby as well. (Nike golf shirt, $15)

speakers

Engage his tech side

While most of his time online may be spent pulling up kid's games, your stay-at-home dad still needs something of his own. Find some awesome headphones, MP3 speakers or even a stylish iPad cover so that in all things he feels that he's still in the mix. (iHome portable speakers for iPod, $50)

grill set

Appeal to his heart through his stomach

Even though he may be making most of the meals, hook him up with all the fun BBQ tools and accessories, as well as a few new cookbooks to help inspire him. Better yet, make him a special meal and then gift him with everything you used to create it. (Cuisinart 14-piece deluxe grill set, $20)

Bring the gym to him

Staying home with the kids can sometimes make getting to the gym even harder than it already is. So why not bring the gym to him? Gather up some weights, a mat, some workout clothes and a water bottle and set up a place for him to get out that bottled-up aggression. On second thought, add in a kid's DVD for the tots so that dad gets his full hour workout. (Everlast door gym, $13)
