The Best Father's Day Gifts 2026

The Best Father’s Day Gifts 2026

Posted on by Jupiter and Dann

[Ad – Gifted Products] Updated on May 26th, 2026, to add more gift ideas. During the almost-year that I’ve been writing on this website alongside Jupiter I’ve been introduced to a massive selection of companies who create custom, specialised presents and gifts perfect for a variety of events. Father’s Day is rapidly approaching, and this made me realise that this is – almost certainly – one of the best times of year for us to quickly list off some of the best Father’s Day gifts out there.

Steenbergs BBQ Rubs

Steenbergs have a set of three seasoning blends, one of which being a rub and the other two being more of a seasoning mix. These seasonings are ideal for fathers who are BBQing or cooking this summer. I find these sorts of seasonings, in our household, really inspire us to cook something a little different and encourage new cooking. It’s also perfect for this time of year!

Exploring MCM Comic Con London 2026

Exploring MCM Comic Con London 2026

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Another year, another MCM Comic Con London! It feels like each time this comes around, at least one kid is out of school. We’ve had a day of just Kai, a day of Kai and Amelia, and this year we got a day of just Robin and a day of just Kai! On the Friday at MCM Comic Con London 2026, we took just Robin as she was the one without school that day. Kai had also asked to attend, so we decided to take him on the Sunday, as Dann and I always tend to go two days to get everything done.

SpongeBob SquarePants Labyrinth - Sliding around Bikini Bottom

SpongeBob SquarePants Labyrinth – Sliding around Bikini Bottom

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad – Gifted Products] Robin is such a huge fan of SpongeBob SquarePants, so when we saw SpongeBob SquarePants Labyrinth, we wanted to play it. We’ve previously played Pokemon Labyrinth, so we all sort of knew how the game was played. Labyrinth is a classic board game type, often finding different IPs to change out the characters, cards, and layouts on the board. SpongeBob SquarePants Labyrinth was absolutely perfect for Robin!

Playing Pinball at Arcade Archaeology

Playing Pinball at Arcade Archaeology

Posted on by Jupiter

Dann is a big fan of pinball and has been for quite some time. While exploring a mall local to my hometown, we saw Arcade Archaeology – which was closed at the time. Thankfully, we messaged them and they agreed to open on a day of the week they are normally shut to let us in! Arcade Archaeology is a primarily pinball venue that’s set up like a museum. It’s a non-profit, ran by volunteers, who all very much love pinball.

Horton’s Steam Fair has announced their 2026 tour, which is going all across the United Kingdom. Horton’s Steam Fair is one of the more traditional, old-fashion touring fairs that bring something so fun yet so vintage to the country. This year, it’s bigger and better than ever!

This steam fair features a large collection of restored Britain funfair rides, bringing them to life for festivals and for the sets of film and TV. This is Horton’s second year on tour, where they’ve brought together authentic pieces from the 1900s to 1960s, including iconic rides from Carters Steam Fair, which we attended a few years back and very much enjoyed.
