Geek Dad: Awesomely Geeky Projects And Activities For Dads And Kids To Share - Plot & Excerpts
Perhaps it’s because of the link to Japanese culture. After all, geeks have a passion for manga and mecha and all things ninja. Maybe geeks appreciate the balance of the technical and the artistic. Case in point, I was the “president” of the Origami Club in my high school, and all the members were my buddies from playing D&D and taking AP Physics. So origami can be something really fun to share with our kids, especially when they are younger. It’s about the least expensive art/ craft you can try, and it involves enormous creativity and imagination. And if your kids balk at the idea that folding paper into animals can be cool, just tell them to think of it as making their own action figures, and promise you’ll act out Pokémon battles with them when they’re done. But how can we make origami even geekier? I was browsing the aisles at my local electronics warehouse one day, looking at parts and pieces, and I noticed a very interesting item called a CircuitWriter pen. If you remember those glitter pens that everyone loved to use in junior high school, this is the same idea.
