Hey mamas! Father’s Day is coming up soon! While we all know dad’s love coffee cups that say “World’s Greatest Dad” or maybe some kind of dad/grill related item you got to change it up every now and then.
I am obsessed with making gift baskets, they are easy and fun and you can really personalize them and everyone loves getting a gift basket full of their favorite goodies.
I have the perfect basket for a new dad or any dad with a new baby. We have a baby so I knew this would be the perfect gift basket for my husband, Daniel.
Now it is easy to create this basket, just pull together some of your husband’s favorite goodies to help him “survive” these baby days (they can be hard!) beef jerky is always a favorite with guys so I made sure to throw plenty of those in there to give him a quick snack when the kids are running around like crazy. I also included some crackers and his favorite chips. Just like us mamas, daddies need a little treat at the end of a crazy day too so some king sized candy bars are perfect for the king of the house.
Some rootbeer or coffee pods are sure to give him an extra boost of energy when the kids have wore him down.
I also throw in a few new t-shirts because he is bound to lose a few to spit up here and there.
Now my favorite thing about this basket is a new baby monitor (dudes love new techy things). I chose the VTech VM981 Expandable HD Video Baby Monitor with 1 Wi-Fi Camera, 5” Touch Screen.
One of the main reasons I chose this awesome monitor was because Daniel works nights as a milkman, he misses out on bedtimes, he misses out on sneaking into the baby’s room at night to check on him and the VM981 has an app so all my husband has to do is log on and he can see Sam sleeping any time he likes. I knew it would be the perfect gift for him. Now he can see Sam and feel more included at bedtime even when he’s not here.
I also chose the VM981 because it is easy-to-install and it gives us peace of mind. I love the high-definition color touch screen parent unit and again the remote access via the new MyVTech Baby app for Apple iOS and Android lets my husband check in too.
The HD video provides crystal-clear viewing. The Motion alerts let me know if Sam is waking or moving around via secure and encrypted video and sound transmissions to a smartphone or tablet.
The night vision is superb and I can see everything! I really like that with support for up to nine VTech VM980 Wi-Fi Accessory HD Video Cameras, this system can grow right alongside my family.
I could not have asked for a better monitor for my family! It has everything we need, the HD, the alerts, the night vision, the touch screen and most importantly the app. I even downloaded the app on my phone so I can check on Sam anytime I’m away at night.
I got mine at my favorite place to shop, Amazon, with their fast shipping you can get it right in time for Father’s Day.
So pick up this amazing VTech VM981 Wi-Fi HD Video Monitor and Camera for that new daddy in your life this Father’s Day and include it in a cute little Daddy Survival basket they are sure to love!
