What is Pi? Some might define it as the ratio of a circle’s circumference divided by its diameter. Others might think it’s an irrational number that’s impossible to know completely. Still others might think it’s a mystical, transcendental, almighty number that will only finally be revealed when the Mayan calendar ends. Those people are probably putting their affairs in order, though, and not so much reading this site. But we digress… We here at ThinkGeek like to think of Pi as a way to help you come up with creative reasons to spend your hard earned cash on a t-shirt. Quick question. When is Pi day? March 14th of course. Think about that for a second. Now, while still mesmerized, drop this shirt into your shopping cart. Royal blue, 100% cotton, kids’ t-shirt with the Pi symbol on it. The first 4493 digits of Pi were used to construct the Pi symbol itself. That’s a whole lot of Pi. Enough for everybody to share so don’t get greedy on us now. A big shout out from ThinkGeek goes to Archimedes way back in the B.C. for finally giving us a good approximation of Pi, and doing so without the benefit of modern trigonometry. And thanks to the Egyptians and Babylonians for trying.

We know it’s one of our favorite numbers, and that’s gotta be good for something. 50/50 cotton/polyester 9.1 oz hooded sweatshirt with drawstring hood and “”unipocket”" in the front with the Pi symbol printed on the front in white. A whole bunch of digits of Pi were used to construct the Pi symbol itself. Ok, we admit it, we didn’t count the digits for the hoodie.

It’s true. Triops have been around for a bajillion years. They have survived unchanged due to a very special adaptation called “diapause.” When their ponds dried up, the Triops’ eggs went into a state of suspended animation until the ponds filled again. Triops look like a cross between a horseshoe crab and a facehugger (look out Sigourney!), and can grow to be up to 2” long. Oh yeah, and THEY HAVE 3 EYES!! You’ll have a very unique conversation starter on your desk. And since Triops hatch in about 24 hours and almost double in size daily, expect your desk to be the center of the office as your co-workers stop by frequently to see how the Triops are doing. Go crazy, name the Triops after your co-workers. We did! And don’t worry – these Triops are grown on special farms; you’re not harming any ecosystems by growing an army of desk aliens.

March 14th of course. Think about that for a second. Now, while still mesmerized, drop this shirt into your shopping cart. Navy blue 100% cotton babydoll tshirt. Stretchy and fitted, not baggy like the guys’ stuff! Pi symbol printed on the front in white. The first 4493 digits of Pi were used to construct the Pi symbol itself. That’s a whole lot of Pi.

You wanted navy anyway, right? 100% combed ringspun cotton, 1X1 rib, 1X1 rib bound collar, 1/2” collar height, self fabric binding on collar, side seamed, tapered waist, garment washed, no-shrinkage

There’s never before been a book like Gallop! Employing a patented new technology called Scanimation, each page is a marvel that brings animals (along with one shining star) to life with art that literally moves. It’s impossible not to flip the page, and flip it again, and again, and again. A first book of motion for kids, Gallop! shows a horse in full gallop, a turtle swimming up the page, a dog running, a cat springing, an eagle soaring, and more! Created by Rufus Butler Seder (genius, inventor, artist, and filmmaker), Scanimation is a state-of-the-art six-phase animation process that combines persistence of vision with a striped acetate overlay to give the illusion of movement. It harkens back to the old magical days of the kinetoscope, and the effect is astonishing. Complementing the art of Gallop! is a delightful rhyming text full of simple questions and fun, nonsense replies: Can you gallop like a horse? giddyup-a-loo! Can you strut like a rooster? cock-a-doodle-doo! Every child who opens the book will be amazed – and so will every parent.
