There are no neckties in this gift list. Not even funny ones. But there are some other fun items that will make your dad chuckle, and
that he’ll likely use at least sometime between now and next Father’s
Day and maybe even longer. Here are 10 fun Father’s Day gifts for new
dads, old dads, geek dads, golfer dads, foodie dads, and even single
dads….
I used to scrapbook—yes, I used to take the time to shape photos and
place them over decorative and themed backgrounds and then write
paragraphs of descriptions on each page. That was well before I had
children, when I had time to print pictures and when I had time to sit
and look at them. Since photography has gone digital, my hope has been
to compile photo books for each year’s worth of photos, but I’m seven
years behind schedule. And apparently not up to speed with a new form of
capturing life’s moments. Shapify allows you to create three
dimensional figurines of you and your family. Now you can turn yourself
into an actual 3D selfie.
Injuries are a part of sport–there is no getting around it–and concussions are one of the worst injuries. They can sideline athletes indefinitely and have a lasting impact on their lives. However, companies like Integrated Bionics are leading the way in developing products that can improve the lives of athletes. The HeadsUp Headband, a head impact indicator, is one such product.
One of five inventors of the LEDsafari lamp interviewed an African
student who was recently trained to build his own LEDsafari. The
student is very enthused about the invention because it is going to
bring affordable light to his continent, giving Africans more time in
the evening to study, to discuss, to work, to create… It will make
them more productive and, thereby, richer. A simple, cheap, safe, and
environmentally clean lamp, this student hopes, will ‘light up the Dark
Continent.’
