And the best part is, they’re all available under one roof – at the Malta International Airport, where most outlets are open from 11am to 7pm.

While some dads struggle to figure out how to use the Facebook app on their Smartphone, others are always the first to hop onto the latest gadgets and tech. If your dad forms part of the latter, why not treat him to a new pair of headphones? It’s a win-win for you too – after all, how many times can you listen to an entire Pink Floyd live album without feeling the urge to hurt someone? The latest models from Belkin, Sony and JBL are available at WHSmith.

Parenting is tough – there’s no two ways about it – but as we say in Maltese ‘bniedem avzat, nofsu armat’ (that’s he who is prepared, is well equipped, to you and me!) Rob Kemp’s Dadding It! is a must-read for new dads and dads-to-be – full of wise words, relatable scenarios and cautionary tales, it’s bound to be a welcome read for the new dad.

Something to say thank you

If your dad is one of those who always insists that he doesn’t want you to ‘waste money’ on a gift, we’ve got just the thing. Make your feelings towards him known with a thoughtful card. If you’re not great with heartfelt messages, we’ve got you – head to WHSmith inside the Welcomers' Hall for a selection of greeting cards which do the talking for you.

Something for dads who need to get organised

If your dad’s briefcase is looking a little worse for wear, it may be time to introduce him to the backpack. Samsonite’s latest collection features the stylish Vectura Evo Laptop Backpack, which doubles up as a laptop case with plenty of room for paperwork and other knick knacks. It looks great and can be used as a carry-on when travelling abroad to boot!

If your dad machine needs caffeine to function, a coffee-themed gift will be just what the doctor ordered. How about a reusable coffee cup and a packet of Costa’s finest coffee blend? Saving the planet and getting his caffeine fix at the same time sounds like a no-brainer to us! And he’ll think of you every time he heads out with his convenient to-go cup, ensuring he starts his days off on the best note.

Is your dad struggling to keep to a healthier lifestyle? Smoothies are great for helping him get his five-a-day, and a re-usable cup from Dr Juice (which entitles you to double points on every juice purchased), is a great motivator! And for some added inspiration, why not treat him to a recipe book of healthy meal ideas from Agenda Bookshop? They’ll make for a super set!

Something to take your dad’s style game to the next level
