FAQ (Real questions from kids who want their dad to actually use the gift)

Q: My dad is picky about soap. Is Dr. Squatch safe for sensitive skin?
A: Yes. All-natural ingredients. No parabens. No sulfates. No phthalates. The grit can be rough for some people — get the “gentle” grit version if your dad has sensitive skin. The “heavy grit” version is for guys who want to feel like they’re scrubbing with sand.

Q: My dad doesn’t use lip balm. How do I get him to try Harry’s?
A: Put it in his car’s cupholder. Or his coat pocket. Or his desk drawer. Don’t say anything. He’ll find it on a dry winter day. He’ll try it. The matte finish will surprise him. He’ll keep using it.

Q: Are shower steamers messy? Does he have to clean up after?
A: No. The steamer dissolves completely in the water. No residue. No cleanup. He drops it. He showers. He rinses. The drain handles it. Just don’t put it directly under the water stream — put it in the corner of the shower where water splashes but doesn’t directly splashes it down.

Q: My dad already has a multitool. Does he need the pen?
A: His multitool is in the garage or in his work bag. The pen lives in his pocket. Different places. Different purposes. He’ll use the pen more because it’s always there when he’s in the kitchen or at his desk.

Q: How do I know what size polo to buy?
A: Under Armour runs true to size. If he wears a large t-shirt, buy a large polo. If he’s between sizes, size up. The fabric is stretchy so it’s forgiving. When in doubt, buy a large. Most dads are larges.

Q: The Stanley pitcher — can he put it in the dishwasher?
A: Yes. Hand wash recommended but dishwasher safe. The insulation won’t break. The lid seals tight. Just don’t put it in the microwave (obviously).

Q: Is the popcorn maker worth the counter space?
A: It’s small. About the size of a coffee maker. The cord wraps underneath so it doesn’t dangle. He can store it in a cabinet when he’s not using it. Pull it out for movie night. Push it back when it’s done.

Q: My dad says he doesn’t want anything.
A: They all say that. It means he doesn’t want you to spend money on junk. Or something that’s you cannot afford. Don’t ask permission. Everybody loves a gift that’s sign of attention.
