Here are some unique (and cost-free I might add) gift ideas for dads of all ages. There are many great, innovative options this year via Facebook timeline apps that allow loved ones to give the gift of appreciation to their fathers in an economical and personal way. Here are some specific examples/ideas for gifts are described below:
* Create a Spotify playlist for your dad to let him know – through song – how much you love him. Be sure to include his favorite artists, as well as some traditional dad songs.
* Use Viddy to send your dad an “I love you” video, whether you’re near or far.
* Find the perfect “thank you for everything” recipe on Foodily, and share it with an IOU for the next time you’re together.
* Login to Jib Jab with Facebook and create a personalized Father’s Day card he’ll never forget.
* Use Pinterest to pull together a thank you board. Pin everything that reminds you of your dad — childhood books, favorite places you’ve been together, his best sloppy joe recipe and more.
* Use Goodreads to see what books your dad has on his “to-read” shelf. Send him a copy you’ve already checked out.
* Join forces with others in support of a worthy charity with Causes. Show your dad the effort closest to his heart is important to you, too.
Additionally, Facebook has teamed up with Redbook to create a super-cute (and free!) Facebook app that lets you share stories and send love to your guy, your father, or any dad you know. “Like” Redbookon Facebook for more details.
