Review: Galaxy Zega

September 19, 2019 by Paul Banas Leave a Comment

The John Deere fun on the farm play set

The John Deere fun on the farm play set was an instant hit for both of my little girls. It comes with four vehicles; all with working/moving parts.  It also includes the accessories such as the people, animals, fence, and hay and rocks for the trucks to carry a load.  I had fun showing my girls all of the ways the tractors can be used on the farm and they really seem to enjoy … [Read more...] about The John Deere fun on the farm play set

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

Decoding Dad’s Mental Load with Zach Watson
byPaul Banas

In this episode of Great Dad Talks, guest Zach Watson dives deep into the often-misunderstood topic of “mental load” in modern partnerships and parenting. Zach, known for his educational and relatable takes on invisible labor in relationships, shares how the mental and emotional workload disproportionately impacts women—often in ways that go unrecognized by men.

Whether you’re struggling with household challenges, feeling disconnected from your partner, or just want to strengthen your role as a dad and partner, this episode is for you.
