As Father\u2019s Day approaches, you\u2019ve no doubt started looking for the perfect gift for your pops. No matter what kind of dad calls you his kiddo, we\u2019ve got something he\u2019ll love.<\/p>\n

We plan to break down the dad-egories and give you gift ideas for all kinds of paternal persons, but today we\u2019re getting things started with gifts for the Geek Dad.<\/p>\n

Geek Pocket Watch<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Geek<\/a><\/p>\n

Like your dad, this brass pocket watch is smart and stylish. The watch features a classic cover, to protect the face while its in dad\u2019s pocket. Whether he\u2019s a math geek or just a fan of the unique, he won\u2019t be able to wait to open it up and show off the equations within.<\/p>\n

Numerically inclined dads may want to spend some time solving each equation, but if your dad would rather check someone else\u2019s work, he can read The Geek Watch Decoded<\/a> and see how another dad did the math!<\/p>\n

USB Card Pen<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"USB<\/a><\/p>\n

If your dad is tech-savvy, chances are he\u2019s always looking for new techie gadgets and gizmos. The USB Card Pen is the perfect combination of a classic Father\u2019s Day Gift (a pen) and something a little more modern (a USB flash drive).<\/p>\n

Or, perhaps dad would love another classic gift with a modern twist, the iBottle Opener<\/a>. But if you\u2019re not quite ready for messages from your pa to show up on When Parents Text<\/a>, feel free to check out some of our other geeky gadgets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"F<\/a><\/p>\n

Father knows best, so he might enjoy reading some humorous excerpts from those who got it wrong. The answers may not be correct in the traditional sense, but they do get bonus points for creativity.<\/p>\n

F in Exams will make your dad smile all on its own, or it can be paired with one of our other gifts for geeks<\/a> if you\u2019re looking for extra credit!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
