19 Best Gifts for Dad (2024): Grilling Gear, Coffee, Mitts

Your dad probably isn’t going to complain about any gift you give him. For better or worse, most modern dads don’t get hung up on presents. You know the meme of the older, bearded gentleman with a goofy smile opening a shirt just like the one he has on? There’s a lot of truth to that. However, I am not only a dad and a gear reviewer but also someone with a specific philosophy about what makes a good gift for middle-aged men like me.You’ll notice some threads running through this manifesto guide: The best gifts for a dad are things that not only are relevant to his interests but also can be fairly described as “overkill.” Dads tend to like things that are overbuilt but useful. I’m sure some dads want to be “pampered,” but this is not me or the dads I know, who all physically cringed readin...

God’s Mercy and the Atari I Never Got

Heavy is the heart weighed down with memories of the one that got away, especially around Christmas. My heart was once so encumbered, not by a past flame but by the Atari 2600 home videogame console.It was early December 1981, and everyone I knew seemed to be playing “Space Invaders.” My elder sister, Brig, 12, younger brother, Jack, 8, and I, 10, had pestered our parents for it all year. We’d long heard nothing but such disheartening retorts as “Atari will rot your brain.”Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8

When your kid is small, safely using a stroller requires car seat adapters or the right bassinet-style attachment. Then, they get bigger, and so does all the stuff you have to carry around. But if the wheels don't work or something breaks? I don't know about you, but I'm going home.It's easy to get overwhelmed with all the options and scared off by the sticker shock. After a bad experience with a cheap stroll...

Guava Family Roam Stroller Review (2023): Convenient Jogging Stroller

Once it's folded, the stroller is considerably smaller than any of the other joggers I've tested from Thule and Bob. It looks as small as a standard stroller while folded, but it stands up better than most strollers you'll find, thanks to the handlebar at the base.Pump the BrakesThe biggest downside of this jogger is clear: the lack of a hand brake.It's usually an included feature in any jogging stroller to better control your pace as you run, especially if you're running on hills or slopes of any kind. Otherwise, you have to manage the stroller as you run downhill, instead of being able to control the stroller's speed to match yours.Some have better hand brakes than others. Thule's discreet but easy-to-use brake is my personal favorite, which is one of the many reasons it's our top pick ...
