Genealogy: Ancestry

Ancestry
If Dad has a keen interest in getting to know the wider family better, or in finding out more about the generations that came before, then a subscription to Ancestry will give him access to the information he will need to build a family tree that potentially goes back many generations.
Ancestry has access to billions of records, which means that the family tree he builds will be more than just names and dates, but will be able to go deeper and get personal insights into those family members, from where they lived, how much they earned, and even photos, signatures, and much more.

Audiobooks: Audible

Audible
Binging on Netflix means sitting on the couch in front of the TV, but binging on audiobooks from Audible can be done anywhere and any time -- when walking, at the gym, commuting to and from work, before going to bed. 
Audible has a wide array of content, spanning every genre from fiction to non-fiction, from a huge range of authors and narrators.  Audible is also great because it integrates with a whole raft of devices and platforms, so your dad can listen wherever he wants, and even start a book on one device and pick up exactly where he left off on another.
