Even though I’ve been a dad for one year, I’ve been told by more than a few people I was always “dad coded.” I suppose I’m such a dad that I don’t totally know what that means or if it’s a good thing, but whatever, I’ll take it.

But since people think I was always made for the fatherly life, I think I’ve got a pretty good idea what other dads might like. Obviously this isn’t all dads, but if you’ve read The Melt long enough, then you know my vibe. So I decided to do a quick little gift guide for paid subscribers.
