He may not have given you the gift of life, but life gave you the gift of him. That's exactly why your stepdad (or "bonus dad," as we like to say!) deserves something special to show him just how thankful you are that he stepped up. To help inspire you, we crafted this list of thoughtful gifts for stepfathers. It's no surprise that Ree Drummond opts to cook something delicious any time she celebrates the dads in her life—that's always a foolproof option when it comes to gifts for men! But if you're wanting to gift something other than a yummy meal, we've got you covered.
Here, you'll find the best gifts for stepdads that money can buy. Our picks include funny cards, unique, personalized finds, and a few food-related favorites like a hockey stick BBQ set. They're perfect for any occasion, too, from birthday presents to Father's Day gifts. We've also curated some sentimental gifts for dads and gifts for husbands that would work just as well for a bonus dad. (Many of them double as gifts under $1o0, too.)
Whether he's a stylish gent, an avid camper, a coffee lover, or a meat lover (aren't they all?), we have a feeling he'll love and appreciate any of the presents we've compiled here just as much as you love and appreciate him!
If he's a meat lover, any gift involving steak is sure to be appreciated. Why not go all out and get him bacon-wrapped filet mignons? This gift box serves eight, so chances are, he'll cook them for the whole family and you'll get one, too. That's called a win-win!
Okay, so socks as a gift may seem boring, but they are super practical. And you can step it up a little with socks that give back. This set of three comfy cotton blend socks donates money to animal shelters with every purchase. Just look at those cute paw prints on the sides, too!
Let him show off his status with this fun pick! This isn't any ol' tumbler, either. It's a four-in-one tumbler, that doubles a cooler for regular cans, skinny cans, and bottles as well as stands on its own as a regular tumbler. It will keep his drink of choice cold for up to five hours.
Is he always asking your mom where he put his keys or phone? He'll never have to wonder again with this stylish catchall tray! It's made of handsome buff leather, and you can monogram it, too.
Does he like a good cocktail? Make it easy for him to make his own this this mixer set! All he has to do is add the alcohol and he'll be sipping on an old fashioned, a mint julep, or a whiskey sour in mere seconds.
It's so obvious to you who his favorite is, but you can make it obvious to everyone else by giving him this funny mug. He'll have a chuckle every time he sips his morning coffee or tea.
Let's be clear: No one is ever too old for a Build-a-Bear. That's why they created this adult version, perfect for the stepdad who loves to grill. This adorable stuffed animal comes with an insulated lowball glass, a package of beef jerky, and a spice rub.
Golfers gotta golf! Make his next round even better with this fun gift crate. It includes a funny hat, a personalized stainless steel bottle, grip adhesive, and two training tools with a zipper case. He'll improve his game and have you to thank for it!
Aww, how sweet is this keychain? It has "Bonus Dad" in the heart, and on the tag it says, "You may not have given me life, but you sure have made my life better." He might actually shed a few tears reading it!
A ton of people love this backpack—over 69,000 reviewers to be exact! Beyond the incredibly organized compartments, the bag features antitheft pockets, a luggage strap, an external USB port, and more!
Fathers should be prepared for anything. Make sure your stepdad has this sweet "World's Best Dad" multitool next time he goes camping with his friends.
Want to revamp your stepdad’s patio? This stainless steel wood burning fire pit is a serious upgrade to whatever eyesore fire pit he has now. Your mom will appreciate being able to pull chairs around it, as the model and it reduces smoke by up to 70%!
These frames hold your memories, and say everything that your stepdad means to you: "You may not have given me life, but life gave me you." (We're not crying, you're crying!) 🥺
Craft & Kin’s matte black candle jar looks great on any surface, from desks to the kitchen. Let him reach his chill place with the masculine aroma therapy scents of lavender wood, vintage leather, fireside, or pine and clove.
A good bottle of whiskey can go a long way. Stranahan’s is distilled in Colorado and has a velvety finish of coffee and cocoa which tempers the alcohol sting.
This phone accessory may look simple, but it’s an absolute lifesaver. The minimalist wallet allows you to carry all 3 to 5 cards attached to your phone, and it functions as a phone grip.
