The Father's Day gift dad has never opened before
Updated 13 May 2026
Dads tend to get the same gift every year: tie, aftershave, gadget. A personalised coloring book runs the other way. It's an object the kids prepared themselves, from photos they share with their dad, and it stays around long after the day itself.
A few examples that work for this case
A father-and-child scene in action, the kind dads like best.
Holidays or weekend trips: scenes in motion make the best colouring.
Baby asleep on dad: a quiet classic, timeless to colour.
Our tip for Father's Day
Lean on photos where dad is doing something with the child: sport, DIY, games, holidays. Frontal portraits work less well than scenes that show closeness in action. If several kids want to take part, go for the 12-photo format so each one has a patch to colour.
Recommended format
24-page book, €44.99
Ideal when several children share the album, or when you want to cover different periods of the father-child story.

Frequently asked questions
Can several children take part in the same album?
Yes, and we actually recommend it. Each child can colour the pages where they appear with their dad.
Do baby photos work?
Yes, as long as dad's and the baby's faces are sharp. A photo of a baby asleep on dad's chest is usually a brilliant one.
