June has begun and you know what that means: Father’s Day is fast approaching. It takes place every third Sunday of June, which means it falls on the 17th this year. If you’re like me, you might have a difficult time getting your dad a gift. I mean, what do you get someone who might have everything? It’s a tough one but we can all try. Just like our mothers, we should celebrate our fathers everyday but it doesn’t hurt to make this day extra special for him. You have about 12 days to cop him a gift so let this list be your guide if you’re struggling to find the perfect one.
