Here\u2019s hoping Dad spends his mowing time with you for the next few weeks. <\/p>
2. A Robot Mower<\/h2> ![\"Automatic](\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/robot-mower.jpg\")
Robot lawn mower. Photo Credit: Alexandre Patchine<\/a> \/ Adobe Stock<\/figcaption><\/figure> If your dad is tech-obsessed and isn\u2019t set on mowing himself, a robot mower may be a perfect fit.<\/p>
Robot mowers sound like \u201cBack to the Future,\u201d and they are. Invented in the 1970s<\/a>, they\u2019ve become more accessible and more advanced in the past decade or so and are a great choice for small to medium yards.<\/p> For easier setup, opt for a wire-free robot mower, and ensure your chosen model has a mowing height range that fits your grass type.
Cost:<\/strong> Depends on yard size. Robot mower prices start around $500, but expect to spend at least $1,500 for a top-rated model that handles larger yards. Father\u2019s Day sales at Home Depot<\/a> and Lowe\u2019s<\/a> are a good place to start.<\/p> See Related: <\/strong>How Do Robot Lawn Mowers Work?<\/a><\/p> 3. Save Green on Eco-Friendly Mowers<\/h2>
Greenworks Tools, a maker of eco-friendly lawn care equipment, has push mowers and commercial-grade mowers on sale for Father\u2019s Day<\/a>. You can save $1,000 or more. If you have the money, there\u2019s a mower for your yard size, and your comfort level. Even better, these mowers are perfect choices under California\u2019s Green Lawn Care Law<\/a>.<\/p> Other lawn mower makers also are selling mowers at discounted prices for Father\u2019s Day. Which mower is right for you? Check out our Best Lawn Mowers<\/a>, Best Riding Lawn Mowers<\/a>, Best Electric Lawn Mowers<\/a>, and Best Lawn Mowers Under $200<\/a>. Each one has a buyer\u2019s guide that will help you choose the perfect mower.<\/p> 4. Lawn Mowing Simulator<\/h2>
If your lawn-loving dad likes playing video games in his man cave, this mowing simulator is the perfect gift. He can tool around the English countryside simu-mowing to his heart\u2019s content on any of 12 top lawn mowers by famous makers (including Toro, SCAG, and STIGA). That\u2019s just the base game. There\u2019s a Landmark edition and other updates.<\/p>
Some give this game 4 lawn mowers out of 5, and some give it just 1 or 2.
Here are some reviews (but check out the trailer<\/a> yourself before you purchase for Dad):
\u2066MowerDude\u2019s review of the Landmark Edition on Xbox.com:<\/strong> \u201cThis is easily the most fun you can have while building a mowing company empire. The gameplay is really good here.\u201d
<\/p> And then there\u2019s this review from Poob, in Arizona, on Steam:<\/strong> \u201cThe equivalent to watching paint dry.\u201d
<\/p> Cost:<\/strong> Ranges depending on the version you get, for what device, and where you get it. The PS5 version is around $24.99 on Walmart<\/a> or pay $19.99 to download on Steam<\/a>.<\/p> 5. St. Arnold Fancy Lawnmower Beer<\/h2>
If your Dad\u2019s \u201cme\u201d time is mow time, help him stay hydrated after pushing or driving his mower around the yard. Serve him a St. Arnold Fancy Lawnmower Beer. <\/p>
Yes, lawn mower beers are a thing. They\u2019re crafted to be refreshing after hours in the hot sun. If Houston-brewed St. Arnold beer isn\u2019t available where you live, Beer Connoisseur listed 25 Lawnmower Beers<\/a> a few years ago.
Cost:<\/strong> About $16.99 for a 12-pack.<\/p> But what are some other lawn care gifts that will wow Pop \u2013 or make you wish you hadn\u2019t spent your green on grass-themed or -scented items? (Some of these I\u2019ve sent as surprises to our lawn care pros as thank you\u2019s.)<\/p>
These are the hysterical lawn-themed gifts I mentioned above:<\/p>
6. Grass Soda<\/h2> ![\"Grass](\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51Q2383r1uL._AC_SL800_.jpg\" "\\"Grass")
<\/a>
<\/figure> If Dad isn\u2019t a beer drinker but loves all things grass, this pop might make your Pop smile. Here\u2019s the review from a LawnStarter pro who received this surprise in the mail for helping me answer a few media questions: \u201cIt was pretty tasty, and when I smelled it, it truly smelled like fresh cut grass!!!\u201d
Cost:<\/strong> About $8.25 for one 12-ounce bottle<\/a> on Amazon.<\/p> Most of the reviewers on Amazon noted that they bought Grass Soda as a gag gift, and it got lots of laughs. The taste drew mixed reviews. <\/p>
Hayliehop\u2019s Amazon review of Grass Soda had me laughing. \u201cIt\u2019s pretty good but\u2026 Do not, I repeat, DO NOT mix with vodka to make a weird mixed drink. It was the most VILE thing I have ever tasted. It haunts my dreams.\u201d<\/p>
7. Clean Up, and Smell Like Fresh Cut Grass<\/h2> ![\"MRS.](\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/31f-YOgwDqL.AC_SL800_.jpg\" "\\"MRS.")
<\/a>
<\/figure> If you really love the smell of a fresh mowed lawn, you can wash up afterward with Meyer\u2019s Fresh Cut Grass Scent Hand Soap. I sent this to the new managing editor for Lawn Love as a welcome-to-the-team surprise \u2013 along with a grass-scented candle. <\/p>
Thoughtful, but almost to a fault. I did not know then that Sharon Sullivan is allergic to bahiagrass. There was no adverse reaction to the hand soap or candle. \u201cI would have been sneezing,\u201d she messaged me Monday.<\/p>
Cost:<\/strong> About $5.49 for a 12.5 ounce bottle<\/a> on Amazon. <\/p> 8. Grass-Scented Candle<\/h2> ![\"Fresh](\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/91hgmKcwZNL.AC_SL800_.jpg\" "\\"Fresh")
<\/a>
<\/figure> If Dad misses that smell of fresh-cut lawn through the week, get him a grass-scented candle for his work-from-home office or his workspace in the garage. The candle below is LawnStarter pro-approved.<\/p>
When you mow grass for a living, you can become obsessed with the scent, or so I hoped\u2026<\/p>
I sent this Just Makes Scents Fresh Cut Grass candle as part of a grass-scented care package to LawnStarter pro Chelsea Morris in Virginia Beach. Her reaction? \u201cI could never get tired of the smell of fresh cut grass!!!! \ud83d\ude0a\u201d <\/p>
Cost:<\/strong> About $15 on Amazon<\/a><\/p> 9. \u2018I Don\u2019t Snore, I Dream I\u2019m a Lawn Mower\u2019 Socks<\/h2>
Imagine Dad kicking back in his La-Z-Boy after mowing the lawn in these socks. He dozes off and he starts sounding like, well, you know. If that\u2019s your dad, then these will make you \u2013 and hopefully him \u2013 laugh. <\/p>
And it will make a great pic for your social media of dad in his recliner sporting these socks and sounding like he\u2019s pulling the starter on his mower or prepping for his Lawn Mower Challenge on TikTok.<\/p>
Cost:<\/strong> About $10.99 on Amazon<\/a> for socks; also available as a T-shirt for about $32<\/a> on Etsy.<\/p> 10. A Lawn Mower-Themed T-Shirt<\/h2> ![\"Green](\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/lawn-care-t-shirt.jpg\")
Lawn mower-themed T-Shirt. Photo Credit: Jeff Herman<\/a> \/ LawnStarter<\/figcaption><\/figure> LawnStarter recently had a companywide contest to find the funniest T-shirts for lawn mower fans. Team members posted pictures of shirts with slogans like \u201cWe Ride at Dawn,\u201d \u201cFriends in Mow Places,\u201d \u201cSorry, I Can\u2019t. I Have Plans With My Mower,\u201d and \u201cGrassquatch.\u201d
The winner of the mowing-themed T-shirt contest, which left CEO Steve Corcoran in hysterics, is a design that features what looks like the \u201cAquaman” actor with these words: \u201cHi I\u2019m Jason, and this is momoa.\u201d <\/p>
Cost:<\/strong> Varies by design, online retailer, and sometimes even shirt size or material quality. (A \u201cLawn Care Legend\u201d T-shirt a former colleague sent me costs around $30 from Life Is Good.) Check to see if you can get the T-shirt to your dad before Father\u2019s Day. You may have to pay for expedited shipping.<\/p> Whatever You Do, Spend Time With Dad<\/h2>
No matter what you give your dad for Father\u2019s Day, give him the gift of your time and your presence (don\u2019t worry about presents). Just spend some time with him. If you\u2019re one of our youngest readers, ask him to play catch with you. If your dad is older, mow the grass for him \u2013 not just this weekend but regularly. <\/p>
Or hire a LawnStarter pro near you<\/a> to take mowing off Dad\u2019s to-do list.\u00a0<\/p> \u200b\u200bLawnStarter participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program and other retailer affiliate programs.

If your dad is tech-obsessed and isn\u2019t set on mowing himself, a robot mower may be a perfect fit.<\/p>
Robot mowers sound like \u201cBack to the Future,\u201d and they are. Invented in the 1970s<\/a>, they\u2019ve become more accessible and more advanced in the past decade or so and are a great choice for small to medium yards.<\/p> For easier setup, opt for a wire-free robot mower, and ensure your chosen model has a mowing height range that fits your grass type. See Related: <\/strong>How Do Robot Lawn Mowers Work?<\/a><\/p> Greenworks Tools, a maker of eco-friendly lawn care equipment, has push mowers and commercial-grade mowers on sale for Father\u2019s Day<\/a>. You can save $1,000 or more. If you have the money, there\u2019s a mower for your yard size, and your comfort level. Even better, these mowers are perfect choices under California\u2019s Green Lawn Care Law<\/a>.<\/p> Other lawn mower makers also are selling mowers at discounted prices for Father\u2019s Day. Which mower is right for you? Check out our Best Lawn Mowers<\/a>, Best Riding Lawn Mowers<\/a>, Best Electric Lawn Mowers<\/a>, and Best Lawn Mowers Under $200<\/a>. Each one has a buyer\u2019s guide that will help you choose the perfect mower.<\/p> If your lawn-loving dad likes playing video games in his man cave, this mowing simulator is the perfect gift. He can tool around the English countryside simu-mowing to his heart\u2019s content on any of 12 top lawn mowers by famous makers (including Toro, SCAG, and STIGA). That\u2019s just the base game. There\u2019s a Landmark edition and other updates.<\/p> Some give this game 4 lawn mowers out of 5, and some give it just 1 or 2. And then there\u2019s this review from Poob, in Arizona, on Steam:<\/strong> \u201cThe equivalent to watching paint dry.\u201d Cost:<\/strong> Ranges depending on the version you get, for what device, and where you get it. The PS5 version is around $24.99 on Walmart<\/a> or pay $19.99 to download on Steam<\/a>.<\/p> If your Dad\u2019s \u201cme\u201d time is mow time, help him stay hydrated after pushing or driving his mower around the yard. Serve him a St. Arnold Fancy Lawnmower Beer. <\/p> Yes, lawn mower beers are a thing. They\u2019re crafted to be refreshing after hours in the hot sun. If Houston-brewed St. Arnold beer isn\u2019t available where you live, Beer Connoisseur listed 25 Lawnmower Beers<\/a> a few years ago. But what are some other lawn care gifts that will wow Pop \u2013 or make you wish you hadn\u2019t spent your green on grass-themed or -scented items? (Some of these I\u2019ve sent as surprises to our lawn care pros as thank you\u2019s.)<\/p> These are the hysterical lawn-themed gifts I mentioned above:<\/p> If Dad isn\u2019t a beer drinker but loves all things grass, this pop might make your Pop smile. Here\u2019s the review from a LawnStarter pro who received this surprise in the mail for helping me answer a few media questions: \u201cIt was pretty tasty, and when I smelled it, it truly smelled like fresh cut grass!!!\u201d Most of the reviewers on Amazon noted that they bought Grass Soda as a gag gift, and it got lots of laughs. The taste drew mixed reviews. <\/p> Hayliehop\u2019s Amazon review of Grass Soda had me laughing. \u201cIt\u2019s pretty good but\u2026 Do not, I repeat, DO NOT mix with vodka to make a weird mixed drink. It was the most VILE thing I have ever tasted. It haunts my dreams.\u201d<\/p> If you really love the smell of a fresh mowed lawn, you can wash up afterward with Meyer\u2019s Fresh Cut Grass Scent Hand Soap. I sent this to the new managing editor for Lawn Love as a welcome-to-the-team surprise \u2013 along with a grass-scented candle. <\/p> Thoughtful, but almost to a fault. I did not know then that Sharon Sullivan is allergic to bahiagrass. There was no adverse reaction to the hand soap or candle. \u201cI would have been sneezing,\u201d she messaged me Monday.<\/p> Cost:<\/strong> About $5.49 for a 12.5 ounce bottle<\/a> on Amazon. <\/p> If Dad misses that smell of fresh-cut lawn through the week, get him a grass-scented candle for his work-from-home office or his workspace in the garage. The candle below is LawnStarter pro-approved.<\/p> When you mow grass for a living, you can become obsessed with the scent, or so I hoped\u2026<\/p> I sent this Just Makes Scents Fresh Cut Grass candle as part of a grass-scented care package to LawnStarter pro Chelsea Morris in Virginia Beach. Her reaction? \u201cI could never get tired of the smell of fresh cut grass!!!! \ud83d\ude0a\u201d <\/p> Cost:<\/strong> About $15 on Amazon<\/a><\/p> Imagine Dad kicking back in his La-Z-Boy after mowing the lawn in these socks. He dozes off and he starts sounding like, well, you know. If that\u2019s your dad, then these will make you \u2013 and hopefully him \u2013 laugh. <\/p> And it will make a great pic for your social media of dad in his recliner sporting these socks and sounding like he\u2019s pulling the starter on his mower or prepping for his Lawn Mower Challenge on TikTok.<\/p> Cost:<\/strong> About $10.99 on Amazon<\/a> for socks; also available as a T-shirt for about $32<\/a> on Etsy.<\/p> LawnStarter recently had a companywide contest to find the funniest T-shirts for lawn mower fans. Team members posted pictures of shirts with slogans like \u201cWe Ride at Dawn,\u201d \u201cFriends in Mow Places,\u201d \u201cSorry, I Can\u2019t. I Have Plans With My Mower,\u201d and \u201cGrassquatch.\u201d Cost:<\/strong> Varies by design, online retailer, and sometimes even shirt size or material quality. (A \u201cLawn Care Legend\u201d T-shirt a former colleague sent me costs around $30 from Life Is Good.) Check to see if you can get the T-shirt to your dad before Father\u2019s Day. You may have to pay for expedited shipping.<\/p> No matter what you give your dad for Father\u2019s Day, give him the gift of your time and your presence (don\u2019t worry about presents). Just spend some time with him. If you\u2019re one of our youngest readers, ask him to play catch with you. If your dad is older, mow the grass for him \u2013 not just this weekend but regularly. <\/p> Or hire a LawnStarter pro near you<\/a> to take mowing off Dad\u2019s to-do list.\u00a0<\/p> \u200b\u200bLawnStarter participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program and other retailer affiliate programs.

Cost:<\/strong> Depends on yard size. Robot mower prices start around $500, but expect to spend at least $1,500 for a top-rated model that handles larger yards. Father\u2019s Day sales at Home Depot<\/a> and Lowe\u2019s<\/a> are a good place to start.<\/p> 3. Save Green on Eco-Friendly Mowers<\/h2>

Here are some reviews (but check out the trailer<\/a> yourself before you purchase for Dad):

10. A Lawn Mower-Themed T-Shirt<\/h2>
The winner of the mowing-themed T-shirt contest, which left CEO Steve Corcoran in hysterics, is a design that features what looks like the \u201cAquaman” actor with these words: \u201cHi I\u2019m Jason, and this is momoa.\u201d <\/p> Whatever You Do, Spend Time With Dad<\/h2>
