The 12 Best Doodads for Dorky Dads
Have you been geeking out ever since you were a toddler? Perhaps in part due to your Dad's penchant for all the latest gadgetry, the clunky Apple IIc your entire family shared, and your obsession with Star Wars everything? Us too. That's why this Father's Day we're turning our attention to the best gifts for the dorkiest dads around. (Bonus: These are all available on Amazon!)

Solar power rules, and your Dad loves using his iPad. Take advantage of summertime sunshine with this solar charging iPad case. Best of all, it includes an extra USB port so he can charge his smartphone too!
2. LifeSpan Treadmill Desk ($1,300): If your Dad's still a workaholic, it might be time to gather your siblings together and splurge on a treadmill desk for papa bear. It will keep him healthier, more active, and he'll still get all his work done.

11. Magic Cube Laser Projection Keyboard and Touchpad ($170): Sometimes grownups (we're not grownups yet, right?) can't quite get the teeny tiny keyboard thing on their smartphones. Plus lasers are cool. The Magic Cube connects with iPhones and iPads to project a full size keyboard onto any surface.
12. Emergency Fire Starter ($4): For the most part, Dads are all about camping trips and being prepared for anything. This pocket-sized emergency fire starter is a great chotchkie for Dad, just in case those stormproof matches from the 80s have run out of juice.
