Paoli, PA - June 2, 2004 - According to the US Census bureau there are more than 14.4 million men aged 65+ in the U.S., many of whom are parents. Finding a Father's Day gift that they will appreciate can be challenging. Wellhaven Gifts for Seniors offers tips on selecting useful and unique Father's Day gifts for senior citizens. For active seniors, choose a gift related to their hobby or interest. - Choose clothing and accessories for use in their favorite activity. Dad may appreciate practical items such as a new sportsman's vest or golf wind shirt. For accessories, give Dad a gold-plated money clip and key ring with golfer, hunter and fisherman designs.
- Gadgets make good gifts. Dads like anything that makes life easier. Choose items such as cell phone amplifiers or even a stylish walking stick with a casino pattern on the shaft.
- Give the gift of entertainment. Select a gift certificate to local restaurant or movie theatre. Or, choose a collection of musical memories from a bygone era that Dad can enjoy while in the car or at home.
For elderly fathers consider items that enable easier everyday living or promote social interaction. - Make lawn and garden chores easier. If your dad lives in his own home, mow the lawn, tend the garden or arrange for it to be done on a regular basis. For aging parents who prefer to do their own lawn and garden activities, consider ergonomic garden tools that ease strain on the joints.
- Help those with vision difficulties. Choose large print books or large face playing cards. Lighted magnifiers are often useful in reading the small print on medication vials or cooking instructions on food containers.
- Give the gift of communication. When selecting big button, amplified or multi-feature specialty telephones, ensure that the phone is hearing-aid-compatible and eliminates feedback and distortion for clear communication.
Selecting gifts for senior dads, whether they are active or elderly, can be challenging. But he will appreciate thoughtfully selected gifts that help him enjoy life better or maintain independence.
