One of the indisputable truths that I have learned is that guys like gadgets and do-dads. While I appreciate something novel or nifty, my reaction to a new piece of tech pales in comparison to the typical man’s rapturous reaction to cutting-edge items. For Father’s Day, honor that special dance dad in your family by gifting him with one of these practical, high-quality electronics or electronic accessories!

FlexSafe

Do you find yourself in need of a vault while you’re on the go? The FlexSafe by Aquavault is a Shark Tank-featured find that can solve that pesky problem! This lightweight, secure travel safe features a compact design and patented locking mechanism to keep your valuables safe. Easy to use, it also has RFID blocking technology and slash resistant materials. And it’s produced by a small business to boot!

Luminaid

Got a light? If not, you will with collapsible, inflatable, shatterproof, waterproof solar powered lantern! Great for camping, parties, picnics, poolside fun, emergency preparedness, and more, the LuminAID has quickly become an AMAZON’S CHOICE with stellar ratings.

SubSafe

Yes, this is seriously a “thing.” Help your favorite dance dad or dancer keep their sandwich safe, not soggy, with this fun container (featured on Shark Tank)! Use it for subs, as a cup, cocktail shaker, and more. It even floats!

Shiatsu Massager

This thing is like the Cadillac of heated massagers! Standing around at day-long dance events is rough, even for the toughest of men. Give him the gift of relaxation, improved blood flow, and relief from aches and pains with this Amazon’s Choice. It features 8 deep tissue needing nodes, advanced heat settings, and adjustable speed and direction control. With almost 8k ratings at post time, this is one of the more trusted massagers I’ve come across. Take a look!

Noise-canceling earbuds

Help Dad tune out the chaos of his surroundings! These noise-canceling earbuds are getting rave reviews!  Get about 8 hours of power on a single full charge, and choose from six colors.  Grab this AMAZON’S CHOICE while it’s still in stock.  Not being a tech-savvy person, reading the rest of the specs is best left to more knowledgeable people (I’m sure that includes you) so click the link to take a peek. 

Power Bank / Portable Charger

Those long hours waiting between convention classes and competition numbers can drag on forever, draining your electronics of power in the process.  And what if your toddlers need to watch that episode of CocoMelon one more time, and their devices are dead?!  The horror!  Make sure Dad has everything he needs to entertain the midgets by supplying him one of the smallest, lightest, quickest portable chargers available.  I love Anker products, and highly recommend this Amazon’s Choice.  It’s available in black or white; as always, check the specs before your purchase to make sure it’s compatible with your guy’s device.

Wireless Charging Stand

Another well-reviewed Anker product!  My son introduced me to the wonderful world of wireless chargers, and I love it.  The PowerWave wireless charger also functions as a stand, so you can view the screen comfortably while it’s juicing up.  You can actually charge two devices at once! Backed by the 18-month warranty, you’ll receive the PowerWave stand, a 5-foot USB cable, and welcome guide.  Be sure to read through the details before committing to purchasing this popular pick.

Accessories Organizer

If dear old dad is a gadget guy, keeping track of all of the accessories (cables, chargers, flash drives, and all that) may become a Herculean task.  Help him get and stay organized with this roomy, portable case!  The size of the stuff it can handle is impressive; there’s padding for protection and a durable, flexible nylon outer cover.  It comes with three removable padded dividers and multiple pockets, and is made of waterproof/shockproof material. To see if it will work for your special guy, check the specs for this AMAZON’S CHOICE (and look to see if it has a coupon, because I’ve seen it with 5% off).

Tile Pro Bluetooth Tracker 2-Pack

With all of the running around he does, even the best dance dad is likely to lose something at some point.  Often, it’s the most inconvenient item that is lost in that moment (like car keys when his family is ready to depart the venue after a long day of competition, weighed down with dance bags, rolling racks, garment bags, and weary, whiny children).  Well, he’ll no longer need to fret if he has a Tile Pro to locate his essentials!  This durable Bluetooth tracker can help him find whatever is lost; he can use his smartphone to find something with a 400-foot range, see it on a map, and use a Community Find feature to recruit an entire community of Tile users to help him!  Take a look to read the details of this handy helper with over 25k ratings!

Samsung Smartwatch

If your budget is pretty generous (and if it is, you and I should hang out), make your guy smile from ear-to-ear with the Samsung Galaxty Watch Active 2!  This Amazon’s Choice has Bluetooth, sleep tracking, advanced sensors (which help with keeping track of fitness), stress-level monitoring, and more.  If your guy loves staying connected on the go (and needs to have the latest and greatest gadgets), this is a sure bet.

Digital Camera

If your dancer’s father isn’t sure of how to become more active with his child’s team, one of the easiest roles to transition into is that of unofficial team photographer!  Arm him with some great equipment (like this Canon EOS Rebel digital camera), and let his creativity and imagination take over. Canon is arguably one of the most well-respected brand names in cameras, and the Amazon’s Choice designation confirms the quality.  As always, check the specs to be sure it fits your needs before purchasing!
