10 Gift Ideas for a Highly Sensitive Father 

It is soon Father’s Day. If you’re still wondering what to gift that highly sensitive father in your life then you can’t go wrong with one of these ten ideas.

1. Galaxy Projector

Highly sensitive people often need help when it comes to a relaxing night’s sleep. And highly sensitive fathers are no exception. How about this planetary projector to help soothe dad into the land of nod?

2. The Highly Sensitive Person Book

This book by Elaine Aron is essential reading for any highly sensitive person. 

3. The Highly Sensitive Person in Love Book

This book is also written by Elaine Aron but this time about highly sensitive people and relationships.

4. Beatles Lava lamp

A relaxing addition to the home office, living room or bedroom for that Beatles fan in your life. Lava lamps are great retro bucket emptiers.

An alternative is a Mathmos lava lamp, the brand we have in our home which I highly recommend.

5. The Highly Sensitive Person’s Workbook

Another gem by Elaine Aron. The Highly Sensitive Person’s Workbook is a collection of exercises designed to help identify highly sensitive traits and then support the reader to live more effectively with these traits in mind.

6. Noise Reducing Headphones

If the highly sensitive father in your home is sensitive to noise, then headphones that reduce audio stimuli is something he’ll surely thank you for the next time the kids are over-exercising their vocal chords……

7. An E-Reader

Reading empties an overfull or filling bucket. With an e-reader dad always has a book on hand to switch off and get some quiet time.

The Kobo reader and e-book subscriptions are also an option.

This gift idea works great in combination with gift idea numbers 3, 4, 6 and 10!

8. Kindle Unlimited Plan

If you want to treat dad to unlimited reading and listening on his Kindle then the Kindle Unlimited plan is the perfect gift.

9. Eye Mask

Some HSPs are particularly sensitive to light. An eye mask solves this, whether it’s for those regular plane journeys, or simply a good night’s sleep at home.

10. Lego Art

Have I saved the best for last? Quite possibly.

Is dad creative? And a Lego fan? Then Lego Art is a perfect gift. It comes in all sorts of tempting forms, from Star Wars to Harry Potter, and The Beatles to Batman.
