父亲节!来给老爸挑礼物!
Last-Minute Father's Day gift ideas
[ 2007-06-15 09:20 ]

It's last minute for deciding and choosing a gift for Dad!


Okay, it's officially last minute for deciding and choosing Father's Day gifts. Here are some last-minute ideas.

The gift of music. If you've got the cash, and think Dad might like his own MP3 player to enjoy, go with an Apple iPod nano, which would allow him to listen to and wirelessly buy all kinds of music via a Yahoo! Music subscription. If he's strictly a CD man,burnone for him with some new tunes you think he'd like.

Digital camera. The most expensive thing on this last-minute list, the Canon PowerShot SD600 IS Digital Elph is a can't-miss choice for excellent photos with simple-to-use features. It slips into a pocket and makes taking great pictures of the kids nearly effortless.

Do something for him. Sometimes the best gift is noticing what Dad does around the house to keep things running smoothly, and then offering to do it in his stead. Mow the lawn. Take out the garbage and recycling for a month. If you don't live near your Dad, you can promise to do a few things to help out around the house on the next visit-thenfollow through!

Something simple. Kids can make a unique, personal T-shirt for Dad quickly and easily with EasyImage.

Sunday will be here before we know it. Don't put it off another day!

到了决定和选择父亲节礼物的最后时刻了!以下是为大家提供的一些“最后一刻灵感”。

与音乐有关的礼物。如果你有足够的银子,而且觉得爸爸可能想拥有一个自己的MP3,那就送他一个苹果iPod nano,这样爸爸可以用它来听音乐,还能够通过Yahoo!音乐订制服务用无线的方式买到各种音乐。如果爸爸是个不折不扣的CD迷,那就挑一些你觉得他会喜欢的新歌,给他灌张碟。

数码相机。“最后一刻礼物”中最昂贵的东西。佳能PowerShot SD600 IS Digital Elph相机简单易操作,而且拍照效果极佳,是个不能错过的选择。这款相机易携带,而且用它几乎可以不费力气的给孩子们拍出效果很好的照片。

为爸爸做点什么。有时,最好的礼物就是留心爸爸平时是怎样持家的,然后主动提出你来替他做这些事。比如,修建草坪;倒垃圾并回收,坚持做一个月。如果你住的离爸爸不近,可以许诺下次去看他时帮他做几件家务事,要说到做到哦!

简单的小制作。小朋友们可以用EasyImage图像处理工具,专为爸爸制作一件特别的“T恤”,简单又快捷。

周日就是父亲节了!别再拖了!
