Now that ties have long gone by the wayside and shoes and socks are optional when working from home, you might be scratching your head for Father’s Day gift ideas.

For the office working dad, there’s plenty of choice in items you can buy for his desk. He’ll appreciate something ergonomic that will take the strain out of a long workday. With plenty of dads working between the office and home, he may have multiple desks in need of the latest equipment. Or you can use your imagination and give dad a unique gift that reminds him of you when it sits with pride on his desk.   
 

#1 Laptop/Monitor Stand

If dad is crouched over a laptop when he’s working from home, it’s time to upgrade his setup and invest in a stand. Lifting the laptop off the desk to eye level can help avoid muscle strain and eye strain. A stand can also improve productivity when you’re not hunched over the laptop. For those dads who use a split screen monitor with their laptop, a stand helps move the laptop higher so both screens are at similar heights to help with workflow.

#2 Laptop Bags

For the dad who needs to take his laptop back and forth to the office, he needs a stylish bag. Some prefer the comfort of a backpack to hold a laptop while other dads need a roller laptop briefcase to carry more than just their computer. The roller bag will be ideal for when he has regular plane travel again.

#3 Ergonomic Mouse

A new-age ergonomic mouse not only looks like an impressive gift, it makes prolonged periods of computer mouse work more comfortable. There’s plenty to choose from depending on the type of work he does and whether he’s left or right-handed. Even a wrist rest or mouse pad can make a difference.
