If you’ve been trying to come up with good gifts for men, there are plenty of present ideas for Dads you might not know about that’ll empower him to learn practical skills he can put to use every day. It’s easy for Dads to forget to slow down and take time out to look after themselves.

As Christmas is a time when families come together more than any other time of the year, do something special this year and surprise Dad with fun gift experiences that you can all enjoy. He’ll love spending time with you more than anything else, so you don’t need to worry too much if you’re unsure which activity he’ll enjoy.

Cooking classes for Dad's who don't need more stuff

If Dad is a travel lover who enjoys being able to visit different cultures and countries around the world, he’ll love a fun cooking class to experience with you. Choose from thousands of cooking classes in Australia and pick something he loves or try something new.  The best part? You'll get to eat everything you make together! Unlike a material gift, the beauty of an experience gift is that he doesn't have to find a new place to store the things you bought him, he just has to find space in his belly for dessert!

Dad might enjoy a Mexican cooking class where sangria will be poured and tacos will be eaten. How about a Japanese cooking class to learn how to roll sushi? Or what about a pizza and beer cooking class? Join him for the class and learn to make classic Italian pizza while having a drink together. Whatever Dad prefers, these cooking workshops are some of the best gifts for Dads who have everything as he’ll get to spend quality time with you!

In these fun, beginner-friendly cooking classes, you and your dad will learn new recipes and cooking tips to help him feel more confident cooking in the kitchen. Have fun, laugh and enjoy spending time together as you learn to create restaurant-worthy dishes. At the end of the class, you’ll sit down with the rest of the team and enjoy a meal you’ve cooked from scratch. 

Take his gardening skills up a notch

One of the best Christmas presents for Dads can be anything to do with the garden. If he’s interested in growing his own veggies, he might enjoy a gardening class where he’ll learn more about how to grow vegetables in the backyard. Learn from local gardening experts who will explain the best soils to use, how to make your veggies grow quickly, as well as how to look after them and protect them from wild animals.

Looking for more unique Christmas gifts for Dads in Sydney, Canberra and beyond? Dad might like to learn how to make a terrarium instead. In these meditative and creative terrarium classes, join Dad as you learn how to build an impressively layered terrarium, complete with a mini succulent garden inside a glass cylinder. He’ll learn all about how to keep succulents alive and the best practices he needs to maintain to keep his terrarium looking impressive. You’ll have fun together as you share a special day learning new gardening skills to put into practice when you get home.

Bring out his practical side at a metalwork class

Searching for practical gifts for Dad who wants nothing? Whether Dad permanently resides in his work shed or is new to the DIY game, metalwork classes are a great place for him to explore his creativity and make something practical for his home. Go old school with a traditional blacksmithing class, put him to work at a welding workshop or have him learn new skills at a silversmithing course. From custom-made silver rings to unique metal sculptures and even knife making workshops, a metalwork class will see Dad return home with something entirely his own, along with a bunch of new, fun and practical skills to put to use!

Indulge Dad's coffee snobbery with barista classes

If your dad is a bit of a coffee snob, why not indulge his passion for the perfect brew with barista classes this Christmas? These hands-on workshops are some of the best dad Xmas gifts for men who love coffee. He'll learn to refine his brewing techniques, master the art of frothing milk and learn how to pull the perfect espresso shot. Whether he’s been tinkering with his home espresso machine for years or is completely new to the craft, a barista class will take his coffee game to the next level. Not only will he enjoy making cafe-quality coffee at home, but this is one of those rare gifts for dads who have everything that can become a daily ritual he’ll appreciate long after the holiday season ends. Plus he'll love having an excuse to have you round for a cup of coffee.
