5 Target Finds Dad Actually Wants

Hey there, JJ here, co-founder of Mission MightyMe and proud dad of three. Father’s Day is around the corner, and if you’re anything like us, you might be scrambling for a last-minute gift that’s actually fun, thoughtful, and let’s be honest... not a tie. I rounded up a few of my favorite finds on shelves at Target right now - all things I either already own or would be excited to unwrap this weekend.

Whether you’re shopping for your partner, your dad, or a father figure who deserves a little love, I hope this list makes gifting easy (and earns you some bonus points along the way).

1. Your Baby's First Word Will Be DADA by Jimmy Fallon and Miguel Ordonez

This one’s for the new dads (and the little ones who are already experts at bedtime negotiations). It’s sweet, funny, and always gets a laugh - even after the tenth read.

2. Pickleball Paddles & Balls

America’s fastest-growing sport has officially reached dad status. Whether he’s a backyard beginner or self-declared league champion, a fresh set of paddles is a guaranteed win.

3. Dad Jokes Book

It’s not a phase - it’s a lifestyle. This book is full of groan-worthy zingers and pun-laced gems that’ll fuel his “dad joke” game for years to come (consider yourself warned).

4. JBL Bluetooth Speaker

Perfect for backyard barbecues, Saturday morning yard work, or turning a Nutty Puff snack time into a dance party. It’s compact, durable, and seriously good sound for the size.

5. Golf Cocktail Stir Stick Set

A hole-in-one upgrade to any beverage, on or off the course! 

Wishing all the dads, granddads, and father figures out there a Happy Father’s Day!
