Having now been a father for one whole month (Happy 1- month birthday, Clara!) I’m totally psyched for this Sunday: my first Father’s Day. Another reason I’m psyched? Because our friends at Lowe’s have offered to help us celebrate Daddy Day with a handy gift guide mood board along with a totally testosterone-ready prize. So if you’re still scratching you head about what to get ol’ pops, here are a few ideas to get you started. And if you’re our lucky winner, you might just be covered entirely (for the next few years even):
- What’s Father’s Day without tools? Kobalt 22 Piece Set ($50) is a great starter set if your guy happens to be tool-less. It covers all the basics, plus dad gets a tool bag to keep it all organized.
- If dad’s covered in the tool department, help him step it up a notch with a Kobalt 60 Piece Driver Set ($54) that has a bit for just about any job you can think of and then some.
- Now if you really want to splurge on pop this year, upgrade his workshop with a Kobalt 53” Tool Chest ($1798). It’s not your everyday tool storage space – it’s got a radio and mini fridge built in! Like woah.
- If tools aren’t his thing, help him tend to the yard with the Fiskars Momentum Reel Mower ($199) that we’re enjoying. It’s an eco-friendly way to mow, plus he’ll get a little extra workout in.
- Or hook him up with a Troy-Bilt String Trimmer ($100) to keep those edges in check. Bonus: he might just stop mowing over the flower beds.
- You can also send him on a power trip with the Porter Cable 4 Piece Combo Kit ($129) that’s got a cordless reciprocating saw, circular saw, drill and flashlight all powered by the same battery.
- But enough about gifts that put dad to work. What about letting him relax with a nice meal straight from the grill? This compact, but powerful 2-burner Char-Broil Urban Grill ($269) could do the trick.
- Lastly, if he’s like most guys and is just plain hard to shop for. You can never go wrong with a Lowe’s Gift Card, right?
If you read this morning’s post about my experience with the Fiskars Momentum mower, you already know that it’s part of this week’s prize.
What you don’t know is that this week’s winner is also gonna score #7 on our gift guide too. Yep, the Char-Broil Urban Grill is also making it’s way to one of you. That way you can spoil the dad in your life with a one-two punch of prizes (or split ’em up if you got a few fathers to pamper this year). Okay, and we wouldn’t blame you if you just kept ’em for yourself. Can’t beat nearly $500 in free stuff, right?
Now let’s get on to how you enter:
- PRIZE: The Char-Broil Urban Grill and Fiskars Momentum Reel Mower courtesy of Lowe’s, Char-Broil and Fiskars
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “HAPPY FATHER’S DAY _______!” (inserting the names of the dad(s) or father-like figures in your life) and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … why not share something you love about them or how you plan to celebrate, honor or remember them this weekend. Feel free to gush, get sappy, or just tell an embarrassing story that captures why he (or they) make your day.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 16th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

cetoya says
I just met my father when I was 15( I am now 20), we started off rocky,everyday arguments. But now we are in a very good place, I see that he is trying to be a friend rather than a father and I appreciate that more than anything. I am extremely proud of our progress and honor to have him as a father-friend.

Natalie says
Patrick you are an amazing father and husband. The countless hours you spent in the summer heat building that playset, all of the bike trips you take Evie on how much you do for us does not even compare to the mountains of love we feel for you. Happy Fathers Day.

Happy Father’s Day Bob! My dad is notoriously difficult to buy gifts for, so I would be incredibly grateful for this giveaway! We will be celebrating this Sunday with a little brunch and lots of laughs.

Love of my life. Super Papa to our four boys. Silly, goofy, great pancake maker, few handy-man skills (boy, would he love this give away!) but heart of gold & a hottie that is all mine!! :)

Happy Fathers Day, Billy !”
My husband is really a truly outstanding daddy to our 3 yr daughter, and baby to be in August ! To celebrate this fathers day, my daughter Maeve thought the thing he would want the most is to take her to see Toy Story 3 – so thats what we are doing! Anything to spend time with her and us, makes him happy he says…. what a guy !
Kjerste says

Happy Father’s Day Dav!
When I was little my dad would tuck me in every single night and we would say our prayers together..He came to every soccer game and every father daughter dance. He’ll be walking me down the aisle soon and I hope he still remembers the Fox Trot! Best dad ever!
Miranda Glaeser says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY CORY!!!!!
Since my husband is celebrating his first Father’s Day as well (Happy 4 month’s to our Nolan), I am all about making it special for him. He has been unbelievable in filling his role of “daddy”. Every night he plays the guitar for our little guy, reads stories to him, and gets completely silly, just to hear that little giggle. Cory works 6 days a week, 10 hour days, just so he can provide for his family, and we are so grateful. I can’t believe how lucky I am to have him in my life. Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing dads out there!
Emily Baer says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY DAD!!!!!
My dad is amazing…he lost his father when he was 9 years old, and it always amazes me how he turned out to be such a fantastic father without really having one of his own to look up to. Thanks dad, I greatly admire you…as do the rest of your kiddos!
Kris says
Happy Father’s Day, grandpa!
Thanks for passing down your great music knowledge, your sense of humor, and always taking care of me when it has mattered most.
Melissa says
Happy Father’s Day Matt!
Matt has been the BEST DAD to our daughter Annie for the past year. (She’s only one… didn’t want you to think she’s 5 and he’s kind of been a deadbeat for the first 4 years! :)) I’d love to surprise him with these!!!
Stephanie says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY, DAD!
I’m making homemade cookies (his favorite) to send to Dad (and Mom can have some too).

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TO MY DAD KEVIN!
Thanks Dad for all the love and support over the years. He’s a wonderful father and I know he’ll be the best grandpa. He doesn’t know he’s going to be a grandpa yet :)
