The impact fathers have on their children cannot be precisely put into words, but what is certain is the significance of their love and efforts in making us who we are. Father's Day is meant to be a celebration of this unparalleled paternal bond that we shall forever carry within us. This annual day will be observed on June 20 this year. To help you show appreciation and gratitude, we have curated a list of functional and thoughtful gifts just in time for Father's Day.

For avid readers

The best part about being a reader is that no matter how many books you've read, there will always be more. Unlike millennial readers who get bombarded with recommendations from social media, expertly curated lists, and so on, our not-so-tech-savvy fathers might still be dependent solely on word of mouth recommendations. 1000 Books to Read Before You Die: A Life Changing List (INR 1265) by James Mustich is the ultimate literary bucket list. The book celebrates the pleasure of reading and helps readers expand their horizons with a treasure trove of entertaining, engaging, and insightful reads across genres.

For coffee lovers

While Dalgona coffee might have been the rage this past year, nothing beats the classics. The Nescafe E Smart Coffee Maker and Travel Mug (INR 6499) makes perfect steaming cups of Latte, Cappuccino, Mocachino, and much more. Simply pair the coffee maker to a smartphone and choose from a range of cold, hot, creamy, and black coffees. An easy to use, fool proof way to ensure your father gets his cup of cafe-like coffee at home, every single day. The compact and light weight design makes it ideal for travel and daily commute.

For travellers

Even though future travel has been a far fetched thought lately, we can keep our spirits high with memories of the journeys we've been on. If your father isn't one to take 1000 photos, Memory Maps (INR 499 onwards) by Pine and Lime are perfect for commemorating fond travels. You can personalise your memory map by selecting the design and location and adding brief description along with a title. This heartwarming gift is bound to evoke nostalgia.
