Gag Gifts for the New Father

We may laugh at seeing tough men reduced to crying for help when it comes to new babies, but if a man has not been around babies before, they are likely to not have a clue when it comes to taking care of the baby. However, we all know that men are trainable, and they can learn how to be good dads for the new infant quickly.

But, getting dad a survival kit or a special apron to help him do his new job, is a lot of fun for everyone, and I have listed several great gag gifts including the Daddy's Diaper Dootie Tool Belt that are actually useful as well as fun.

More Serious Father to Be Gifts

Besides the books listed on this page, if you click through to Amazon, you will find about 30 books written strictly for new fathers on the subject of being a new dad.

Some of the advice books for new fathers also include ideas to help mom to be feel more comfortable as the birth day approaches, and to help the father to be understand exactly what is going on with mom, and why she might be a little grouchy as it becomes closer to having the baby.

Daddy's Diaper Changing Apron

No one really likes to change diapers, but it is a regular part of life when an infant is brought home, for the next couple of years. One of the most popular gag gifts for new dads is the Daddy's Diaper Changing Apron. This gift was not available when my children were born, but I can tell you that if it was, gag gift or not, my husband would have put it on every time he changed a diaper.

Men just seem a little more sensitive to some things. No wonder they always want to leave the dirty job to mom.

Becoming a New Father

All jokes aside, becoming a new father is a very special moment in any man's life, and he deserves to be noticed as well as the new mom. Although the physical toll on the mother to be is much greater, the emotional aspect for both mother and father are equal. It may even be harder for men to get used to the idea of becoming a father since they haven't had the experience of feeling the baby grow inside their bodies for 9 or 10 months.

These gifts will help dad feel a little more comfortable in his new role, and give him some of his own new parent items.
