Father's Day Gifts: For the New Dad

I'll be posting a bunch of Father's Day gift ideas over the next several days- first up are two ideas for proud new papas.

I love this New Dad Gift Basket which includes the books “Crouching Father, Hidden Toddler: A Zen Guide for New Dads” and the tongue-in-cheek “Keeping the Baby Alive ‘till Your Wife Gets Home”, as well as a much-needed post-partum "Mom Mood Monitor" and other goodies. $60 at Red Wagon Presents.


I wish I'd known about Diaper Dude when my kids were infants. What a great, just-stylish-enough diaper bag for a pastel-fearing Dad to carry. Pictured here is the Grey Dad Survival Kit ($110) which includes adjustable padded straps, interior and exterior zip pockets, cell phone pouch, bottle pocket, and changing pad.
