Do you know what some people find to be the scariest, yet most rewarding thing in the world to be? Becoming a parent!
While it’s possible to plan a Disney vacation (especially with our help) and decide what restaurants you want to make advanced dining reservations for, which hotel is best for your family to stay at, or what transportation you want to take to and from the airport now that Magical Express is gone (RIP, we miss you), planning our every moment of your child’s life just isn’t possible. And there’s no ultimate guide for how to be a parent either! With Father’s Day right around the corner, if you’ve got a new Dad in your life, check out these gift ideas to make them feel even more appreciated on their special day.
We’re aware Christmas isn’t any time extremely soon, but that hasn’t stopped us from seeing new ornaments in the parks! So why not give Dad a gift that he can already picture where it’ll go during the holiday season?
This Mickey Mouse ”Best Disney Dad” Figural Ornament is $22.99 on shopDisney and features Mickey Mouse next to a big trophy that says “Best Disney Dad!” If your Dad wants to keep it around all year, it’s freestanding, so it could sit on a desk as well!

LOTS of Dads are Star Wars fans, so even though the franchise features one of the not so great Dads in Disney history (yes, Darth Vader, we’re talking about you), the new Dad in your life may love this Darth Vader Father of the Year Two-Tone Coffee Mug!
An 11 oz mug is $16.95, and you can customize it to your liking, and choose from 10 different colors! If you think Dad needs more room for coffee, you can choose the 15 oz mug for $19.95. AND if you think Dad wants a different style, this design also comes in 5 other options for various prices. Cleaning is easy as it’s dishwasher safe, and you could even make your Dad a celebratory mug cake in it as a part of the gift, as it is microwave safe too!

Maybe Dad is a fan of cooking or baking! Sticking with the Star Wars Darth Vader theme we have here, check out the Darth Vader Father of the Year Apron for $22.95!
Featuring the same design as the mug above, this apron can also be customized! It comes in three colors; khaki, yellow, and white, and is machine washable. Gift this to Dad, and watch the culinary masterpieces begin (or maybe fires if Dad isn’t super experienced yet…keeping a fire extinguisher nearby may be a great idea)!

If the new Dad is a big Magic Kingdom or Dapper Dan fan, then check out the Disney Parks Dapper Dans Loungefly Baseball Cap!
This adjustable hat is $34.99 and features the Dapper Dans in their Funko POP forms alongside some of Magic Kingdom’s most known attractions, some Mickey balloons, and other fun Disney items. Each piece is unique, so Dad will have a hat that’s unlike anyone else’s!

Let’s head back into the kitchen for a moment with the Stitch Cutting Board for $39.99!
This uber-cute cutting board features Stitch holding a coconut in front of a relaxing hut with surfboards and palm trees. The board itself is made of bamboo and the handles are simulated leather. This board is not dishwasher safe, so it’ll need to carefully be washed by hand!

If Dad is a fan of trips and retro Star Wars merchandise, then he’ll love using the Star Wars Beverage Caddy with Bottle Opener on all his adventures!
This $64.99 caddy comes with space for 6 drinks to be placed inside, or you can remove the divider and Dad can put in whatever he’d like! The attached bottle opener is on a retractable cord and has its own designated pocket on the side of the bag!

Maybe this new Dad has to return to work soon or has special events he needs to attend. Who wants boring cufflinks when you can have Star Wars cufflinks?!
These Millennium Falcon Blueprint Cufflinks are $65.99 and will add some extra Disney flair to any dress shirt. The cufflinks are made of Rhodium plated base metal and feature enamel detailing. The round swivel backing features the Alliance Starbird symbol, and the set of two cufflinks comes in a Star Wars gift box.

Sometimes new Dads are up all night with their little ones and really need a caffeine boost in the morning. But THEN the coffee gets cold and you may not have time to make another pot. Introducing the Disney Mickey Mouse Mug Warmer for $22.07!
This warmer keeps hot drinks and soup warm and the illuminated Mickey power light will let you know when it’s on. Not only do you get the warmer, but it also includes a 10 oz Mickey Mouse mug to match!

Maybe Dad has a job that needs to keep drinks hot or cold for a long time on the go. Maybe the perfect gift would be the Mickey Mouse Stainless Steel Canteen by Corkcicle for $39.99!
This Corkcicle can keep drinks cold for up to 25 hours, and drinks hot for 12! It’s triple insulated and has a stay-put silicone bottom to keep it from slipping. This cup is not microwave or dishwasher safe, so wash it by hand to keep it at its best!

There you are! 9 Father’s Day ideas for the new Dad in your life. But if you’re still looking for more ideas, be sure to check out our all-inclusive lists of other Disney merchandise. Does Dad love Corkcicles, but maybe not Star Wars ones?
Check out our list of all the Disney Corkcicles we’ve seen, or check out all the Disney Tervis Tumblers we’ve come across! Perhaps this new Dad wants to celebrate Disney World’s 50th anniversary but won’t be able to make it to the parks anytime soon. Then grab him a gift from our list of ALL the 5oth Anniversary merchandise you can get online.
