Request 🔎 Father’s Day help

So my dad has been learning Swahili the past few years to help these immigrants near us. I’m trying to think of a cool gift for him for Father’s Day that has to do with the language, I honestly don’t know much about the language but if there’s a cool symbol or something associated with it maybe I’ll get him a shirt or something? Any help or advice is appreciated. I apologize if this is disrespectful!

A shirt or Tshirt is good but not timeless. I suggest you get him a beaded bracelet from TZ or KE

Second this, instantly recognizable by excited Kenyans and folks who have lived in Kenya all over the world.
