He’s still figuring out how to hold a bottle and burp a baby at the same time. He’s memorized the lullaby playlist on loop, changed diapers in the dark, and probably brewed coffee at 3 a.m. with one eye open. He’s a new dad — still adjusting, still learning, and still showing up like a superhero with spit-up on his shirt. This Father’s Day, skip the generic “#1 Dad” mug from the store and give him something that actually reflects the legendary effort he’s putting in.
These Father’s Day ideas for infants let you gift from baby to dad with humor, heart, and snack-worthy swagger. Whether it's their very first holiday together or he’s just leveled up from “new dad” to diaper ninja, these gift ideas hit all the right notes.
A Sentiment He Can Snack On
Some dads hang cards on the fridge. Others eat them. The Meat Card™ is a slab of premium beef jerky laser-etched with your custom message — like “Happy First Father’s Day” or “Thanks for waking up at 2 a.m. again.” It’s tender, heartfelt, and absolutely edible.
Imagine his face when he opens a sweet note from the baby… and then bites into it. This isn’t just a card. It’s a Father’s Day flex with flavor.
Why it works: He won’t save it forever — but he will savor it, bite by bite.
Say I Love You, Dad (In Jerky Form)
Babies can’t write love letters yet — but they sure can give jerky. Meathearts™ are heart-shaped bites of beefy affection, engraved with phrases like “#1 Dad,” “Super Dad,” and “My Hero.” It’s like those sugary Valentine’s hearts, only way more flavorful (and easier on his teeth).
Delivered in a sleek box, these meaty messages are perfect for dads who’d rather snack than cry — but still feel all the feels.
Perfect for: Dads who like their love notes medium-rare, smoky, and protein-packed.
Beef Jerky Flower Bouquet – A Bouquet He’ll Actually Want
He might not say it out loud, but every dad secretly hopes someone sends him flowers — especially if those flowers are made of meat. The Beef Jerky Flower Bouquet is a carnivore’s dream: artfully arranged jerky “roses” in a pint glass he’ll keep forever. Choose from bold flavors like Teriyaki, Hot, or Mixed to match his vibe.
It’s heartfelt. It’s hilarious. And it’s absolutely delicious — no watering required.
Why he’ll love it: It’s a bouquet he won’t pretend to like. He’ll devour it with pride.
For the Midnight Snack Sessions
Those late-night feeds aren’t just for the baby — new dads need fuel too. The Best Jerky Gift Box is packed with high-quality beef jerky in a variety of mouthwatering flavors. Whether it’s 2 a.m. or mid-diaper crisis, this box gives him the energy to keep going (and maybe even sneak a quiet snack in peace).
Every bite reminds him he’s doing great — even if his hair is a mess and his coffee is cold.
Great for: Fueling the dad who’s figuring it out on the fly — with style, strength, and a handful of jerky.
Built Like Dad, For Dad
Fatherhood changes everything — but he’s still the guy who gets stuff done. The Personalized Ammo Can is rugged, refillable, and built to last — just like him. Add his name, “DAD,” or a custom phrase to the front, then load it with snacks, keepsakes, or even baby supplies (because yes, this thing is that versatile).
This gift isn't just cool — it becomes part of his routine, a reliable stash box he’ll keep long after the baby outgrows onesies.
Why it hits: It’s a keepsake, a snack stash, and a dad flex all in one tough little box.
New Dad Father’s Day Gifts That Make It Memorable
He may not expect much from his first Father’s Day — maybe just a nap — but that doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be celebrated like the sleep-deprived superhero he is. These Father’s Day gift ideas for babies speak for the smallest member of the family in the boldest, most memorable way possible.
Because being a dad starts the moment the baby arrives. And that first Father’s Day? That’s a memory worth gifting right.
