FATHER’S DAY GIFT GUIDE

RETRO TECH TOYS Rubik’s Connected Cube For the dad who has everything! This 21st century version of the popular puzzle links to a smartphone, teaches him

how to solve it, and lets him connect with and challenge friends and the global cubing community.

HEALTH WATCH Keeping dad fit and healthy is one of the best gifts you can give. A smartwatch tracks vital health metrics to provide a detailed overview of fitness levels. It also pairs with a smartphone for taking calls, accessing music and voice assistants, and includes GPS tracking. These devices are highly accurate, but it’s important to note that they’re not intended to replace advice from a health and fitness professional. Consider the features that would benefit dad. Advanced GNSS and specialised modes for outdoor activities will suit adventurous types, whereas a suite of general fitness and health tracking features will be more than sufficient to bolster wellbeing. A healthy dad is a happy dad!
