Your Dad tips on creating more moments together

Having celebrated Father's Day last weekend, it's important for Dad's to reflect on how to spend more time with your children, reaping rewards and building strong foundations for life.

The time a father spends with his child is important. Spending quality, one-on-one time together enables you to deeply connect and get to know your child. You get to know their likes, dislikes, worries, fears, inspirations and aspirations. Fathers who spend this time with their children also have been found to be better at caring because this time helps a father to be more sensitive to their child’s need for love, attention and support. Children need to know their dads think they are special.

This article from The Fathering Project explores simple ways to stay connected with your children that impacts their learning and wellbeing.
