Cool new product idea – for child safety

December 10, 2007 by GreatDad Leave a Comment

If you’re going to an amusement park, a baseball game, or any where where you might be separated from your child, it’s normal to worry at least little about what happens if you get separated.

Run! It’s lice!

November 8, 2007 by Paul Banas Leave a Comment

I guess at some point in America's history, lice was public health issue that carried a stigma. Now, it just seems to be added to the list of elementary school rites of passage.

Our first and current experience started on Monday with a call from the school … [Read more...] about Run! It’s lice!

Booster seat for the style conscious

November 4, 2007 by GreatDad Leave a Comment

The Clek Olli booster seat is billed as a seat "designed for kids and engineered for parents." And I must say that my daughter loves her powder blue one (though she hopes they come out with a pink), but not for the reasons the marketing materials proclaim.

Great Dad Talks
Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks is a series of conversations with experts on all aspects of the family adventure. With the perspective that “dads don’t always think like moms,” our mission is to support dad voices and our slightly different approaches to parenting. We’ll try to find solutions to every day challenges like getting kids off the couch and making STEM classes available for both boys and girls. But we’ll also tackle bigger issues when they come. The one main theme will be to support dads in the most important role of their lives that of being a great dad. Connect with us at greatdad.com and watch the video version of these podcasts at YouTube.com/greatdadnews
