Table For Five cites Geek Dad as instrumental for filling in the blanks when you’ve just run out of interesting things to do with your kids. No fear! Geek Dad is here! (And we’re happy to help!) From the review:

Summer can sometimes drag on forever when you’re a kid, but when you’ve got a resource like Geek Dad with over 30 actvities to do you feel safe that not only will the time go by faster, but your kids will learn to enjoy science and look at learning as fun.

Adventures in All Things Food thinks Geek Dad ought to be a series. Well, we can’t argue with that. From the review:

I already have a list of people this book would be perfect for. My DH is on the top of the list! I can’t wait to see my two guys work their way through this book. I love hands on projects that capitalize on creativity and quality time for families…I would love to see another book with Geek Dad in the kitchen or Geek Dad Goes Outdoors. Oh, the possibilities!

Much of what’s at the heart of Geek Dad is a love for making things, and more importantly, making things with other people. Particularly family. Over at Just Like the Number, that sentiment was certainly picked up:

Most of the projects are geared for kids elementary school-age and up, but I still think it would make a cool gift for a new dad. You know, give him some time to try out the projects on his own.  Perfect them, if you will. Because that’s what geeky dads do, and we love them for it.

I dare you to share it with your favorite dad and see if he doesn’t find something that makes him say, “Hey kids, you wanna help me with blank?” And it will be something awesome and fun, as opposed to vacuuming out his truck.
