Thoughtful first Father’s Day gifts to mark the special milestone

The perfect keepsake for dad's first Father's Day, this gift set features a mug and a cute bodysuit that can both be personalised and they're presented in a gift box along with a card. Dad can enjoy his first Father's Day morning with his favourite hot drink in the 'Our 1st Father's Day' mug, with baby in the soft bodysuit. It'll be a gift to treasure.

This personalised keepsake is written from baby to father and captures their moments together in an adorable story. It can be personalised with baby's name, the look of the characters and a dedication at the start, and is a wonderful bedtime story for them to share together. Reviewers give it a resounding 5* rating, describing it as "A wonderful sentimental gift for a father".

Whether he's an art aficionado or just likes a wander around historic homes, museums and galleries, a National Art Pass will open up a world of exhibitions and events. It's ideal if he's taking shared parental leave and plans to spend time introducing baby to the beauty of the art world, with a year's free or half-price entry to hundreds of museums, galleries and historic houses across the UK. It also arrives with an Art Map so he can peruse the options and plan out his next day out with the little one. Mother&Baby's Digital Writer, Rebecca recommends the Art Pass as "a brilliant way to discover different galleries and exhibitions and introduce young children to the cultural riches of the UK".

If he's headed back to work and is fuelled by caffeine after a night of broken sleep, help him keep his coffee hot with a classic Thermos. Available in two colours, the Guardian Travel Tumbler boasts the famous Thermos vacuum insulation to keep drinks hot for 3 hours or cold for 10, so whatever his drink of choice, he can enjoy it at it's best. The leak-resistant plunger lid system and easy-to-use slide lock lid means he can use it on the go, or around the house, while it also fits most vehicle cup holders for when he's on the road.

A gift sure to be appreciated by all the sentimental dads out there, this personalised Star Map Print will display exactly what the stars looked like on the day that they became a dad. It makes a beautiful, statement piece in any room, and will definitely be a print to cherish. It comes in various sizes and colours and can be bought framed or unframed.

One reviewer described it as "Absolutely beautiful", saying "I ordered it for my partner's first Father’s Day & I love it! Exactly what I wanted, the quality is amazing and love the packaging - I don’t even need to wrap it. Was well packaged and prompt delivery too".

The benefits of skin to skin continue from birth throughout the first year and this top is a great way to let Dads feel those benefits too. Made from soft stretch cotton which is gentle on baby's skin, the Skin to Skin Top can help dad to bond with baby. It's suitable to use from birth, has wrap ties that offer a flexible fit, and is designed for dads to enjoy snuggling their newborns.

When you have a newborn, all you want to do is capture each moment to cherish and look back on in the future. This Polaroid Now I-Type Instant Camera will bring back the magic of original hard copy photographs, snapping all the important milestones and allowing you to collate them in a baby book that they'll treasure for life. Reviewers were impressed, with one saying "It was quite easy to set up and use. I love the look of Polaroids, you can’t expect a 4K quality but that’s the beauty of it I think. The film size is really good as well and just overall I’m so happy with the product! The ONLY thing I could say is the film is a bit pricey."

Chances are, you bought a lot of gear when you had a baby, from breast pumps to sterilisers. But if Dad's feeling left out, why not get him a gadget of his own? The Velvetiser conjures up silky smooth, creamy hot chocolates in 2.5 minutes so he can quickly treat himself when he's running low on energy after a long night and needs a sweet pick-me-up.

The first year of a parent's life can be both sleep and travel deprived so if Dad's in need of caffeine and a glimpse of life away from home, the Coffees of the World Gift Set can tick both boxes. Let him travel the world through coffee, while getting a morning caffeine boost after a sleepless night. From Brazil to Guatemala, India to Ethiopia, this set will give him a flavour of adventure, even if he's house bound with a new baby.

Reviewers thought it offered a fantastic range with well-sized boxes that were nicely presented, with one saying "My husband is a big coffee lover so we bought this gift pack as it has so many coffee flavours for him to try. It is presented in a lovely box so looks and tastes good. My husband has only tried one coffee so far but loves it so hope he will love the whole box and we can buy it again."

Why not make his mornings more special with a reminder of his wonderful family every time he pours a coffee? This personalised cafetière comes in a choice of two sizes and four colours and you can add a message of up to 30 characters on the handle. You can even add a bag of coffee and have it gift wrapped so it's an easy gift when you're short on time.

Hilariously formatted, this book is the ultimate guide to parenting, especially if the father in mind is a car fanatic. Based on the classic auto manual, the Babies - Haynes Explains (Owners' Workshop Manual) will take new dads through the four major stages of life: from babies to teenagers, marriage and pension, teaching them what to do in certain situations and how to get the basics, such as changing nappies, done and dusted. One reviewer said: "I ordered this book as a ‘fun’ contribution for a forthcoming baby shower, I am familiar with the car repair book so was really pleased when the book arrived and the layout of images and wording was the same. A great little gift that should amuse the awaiting parents, it made me smile! Recommend".

Infantino’s Flip 4-in-1 Light & Airy Convertible Carrier is the perfect gift for any new father. After nine long months of carrying your infant, it's time to hand over the reins to dad. This easy-to-clean, baby wearing carrier offers a comfy and adaptable way for dad to go outside exploring with baby and hopefully also give you a little rest. Thanks to the ergonomic seat that grows with baby from infancy to toddler years and adjustable padded straps, it's a comfortable option that has brilliant longevity.

Reviewers agreed, with one saying "This is such an amazing product for safely carrying our little one around. Our 7 week old absolutely loves it! It's so soft and comfy for her, she was sleeping in under five minutes of being in it. My husband said it is extremely comfortable to wear! We are over the moon with our purchase!"

Whatever first Father's Day gift you choose, you can send a personalised card that he can treasure forever without it taking up too much space. Moonpig have a range of first Father's Day cards to choose from but we love this one which offers the chance to add a selection of photos. You can send it as a standard card, or make an impression with a large or giant card, or even an e-card if you've left it last minute!

The Personalised First Father's Day Box is the perfect gift for first time dads, as you can personalise it with his name and use it every year to fill with all dad's favourite things. You can choose between five sizings and it comes with a clasp opening. One reviewer said: "Happy with this purchase. Box is super cute and exactly what I was looking for. Already filling it and can't wait to give it to the spouse."

This engraved Personalised Father's Day Photo Frame is perfect for adding a cute photo of daddy and his little one and will make a lovely keepsake in years to come. It’s available in four different colours and you can personalise it with your baby’s name too. With over 7,000 five star reviews, buyers certainly agree with this choice, with one saying, "Brought for my partner’s first Father’s Day. This frame is absolutely beautiful! Such amazing quality and looks so much more expensive than it is! 100% recommend, you won’t be disappointed!"

Is it really a Father's Day gift guide without Scotch? The Glenfiddich 12-year-Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a good option for all tastes. With sweet, fruity notes of pear, butterscotch, cream and oak, this is a whisky drinker's perfect gift, as reviewers noted, saying "I had never bought a Scotch online before as I would always pick up one from a shelf of a local superstore. This was the first time I ordered it on Amazon. The product was delivered super quick (within hours of ordering). And the product was well packaged. As for the flavour, well...Glenfiddich can't go wrong. I prefer it "On the Rocks". Every sip of it is a burst of perfectly balanced fresh fruity flavours. Love it. Will surely buy again."
