The weather is fabulous, but if it were up to our toddler he’d be on the iPad for hours a day. We limit his time to about 20 minutes a day on the iPad.

Daddy Mojo reads: Finding Uri by Sandy Munro

Finding Uri is the true story of a father and son who never knew each other. Uri was a WWII pilot, shot down in action, leaving behind a wife and their three year old son, Sandy.

Dad spends a (family) night in the mancave: Who is Simon Miller?

Normally when Dad crawls into the mancave it’s by himself to watch something that may not be so family friendly. Watching television with children is tough, because most of the time it’s either too boring for you or too adult for them. To that end P&G has created Family Movie Night to showcase original, family friendly movies. Continue reading Dad spends a (family) night in the mancave: Who is Simon Miller?
