Which Dad Are You?

This 2.5-hour interactive workshop focuses on the different roles that dads play in their kids’ lives.

We know that each dad is unique and how we parent within our families is different. This group will talk about raising our kids to be happy and healthy, looking at the important role we play for them to contribute to their communities and the positive effect we can play bringing up the next generation. We can also point you in the right direction for further support if you think it would be helpful.

Topics include:

  • the seven different types of dads

  • raising happy and healthy children

  • how you teach, care for and provide for your children.
