After all, even super dads need great sleep! In this blog post, we’ll discuss a variety of bedroom accessories (and essentials) that you can get your dad to make him feel extra special. Whether your dad is a new father, health-conscious, or tech-savvy, our team of dads put together a killer shopping list. Read on.

Spoil Your Dad this Father’s Day

Let’s not waste any more time. You want to get your dad a gift and time is running out. So here are some ideas:

1. Mattress Protectors

Did you recently get a new sibling? Babies sure can make a mess! So if you know that your dad is up in the middle of the night, cleaning baby mattresses and linen, why not get him a mattress protector for the baby’s bed? The Sealy Cot Mattress Protector is similar to a fitted sheet, soft on the baby’s skin and has excellent absorption properties. It will definitely make your father’s midnight struggles so much easier!

Don’t be fooled by the picture, fathers also clean baby beds…

• Current Price: R299.00

And if the baby sleeps in bed with your dad, maybe get him a grown-up mattress protector as well. It’s much more troublesome to wash the big bed and get liquid stains out of the big mattress than the baby bed.

2. Sleep Tracker

If your father likes gadgets and likes to gather stats on his health, get him a sleep tracker. Here are some of the cool perks of using a sleep tracker:

• Sleep monitoring – Surprise! Sleep trackers, you guessed it, track your sleep patterns. This includes sleep duration, times when you are awake at night, deep sleep vs. light sleep and if you put all of this together, it can analyse the quality of your (or your dad’s) sleep.
• Identify sleep problems – A sleep tracker can help identify sleep problems or disorders. It can show if you take too long to fall asleep, or if you wake up regularly at night.
• Personalised sleep recommendations – Some fancy sleep trackers can even recommend how to improve sleep hygiene, based on your sleep patterns, to get better quality sleep.

If your pops like keeping track of things, like fuel consumption and how he fares on the golf course, maybe a sleep tracker is a good idea! Check out the nifty SleepDot Sleep Tracker. It even measures the temperature and humidity in the bedroom, so it can give possible reasons why your dad may struggle to sleep.

Small and sleek. Your dad won’t even notice the sleep tracker while he snoozes.

3. A New Pillow

Grownups don’t always pay attention to their own health. And so, your dad may have been using the same pillow for the past ten years, without realising that he should actually replace it every two years (according to the Sleep Foundation). So if you want to do something that will improve his sleep and health, get him a comfortable new pillow.

If you’re not sure which pillow to get, check out the Kooi Dual Charcoal Pillow. It has different sleeping surfaces on the two sides, so your pops can choose which side works better for him. It also wicks away moisture, eliminates odours and has anti-allergenic properties. Not to mention, it is comfortable as a cloud!

Sleek and oh, so comfortable!

4. Bedside Pedestals

Maybe it’s time to replace your pop’s old and rickety bedside table. Depending on how many trinkets and books your dad stores on his bedside table, we have a variety of options to fit the bill. From simple pedestals without any drawers to stylish three-drawer cabinets. Check out our wide selection of bedside pedestals here.

This elegant bedside pedestal has a drawer and some larger storage space for big books or gadgets.

5. A New Mattress

Is your dad always complaining about back and neck aches? Maybe it’s time to do something really special and get him a new, health mattress or bed for Father’s Day. The Kooi Body Trainer bed is super responsive to body movements and ensures spinal alignment throughout the night. The technology inside this mattress is phenomenal! The mattress is made up of different layers of foam that fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. Your dad will love it!

Look at how cool the inside of this mattress looks! It responds so well to tossing and turning.
