With father's day on the horizon, I was pleased to review "stuff every dad should know" by Brett Cohen, quirk books and I have THREE copies to giveaway to my lucky readers!Like "stuff every mom should know"
It's a pocket sized hard back book with an easy to navigate layout with each area of childhood covered for dad tips!
This is a comprehensive resource for any father or dad-to-be, and takes them through everything they will ever need to know about dealing with children. With advice and instruction on how to hold a new-born baby, introducing them to solid foods, potty training and changing nappies, the Birds and The Bees Talk, household chores, playing with kids, keeping them occupied on long journeys, what to carry in your ‘Daddy rucksack’, read to them, get rid of monsters under the bed, to teaching them to ride a bike, dealing with their school teachers, teaching them to drive, and even meeting your child’s in-laws, this is full of practical advice, guidance, tips, hints, techniques, for fathers, and a must-have for any Dad! Written in an informal, informative fashion, Stuff Every Dad Should Know is sure to engage and interest dads and dads-to-be (and mums and mums-to-be), and any book that shows you how to child-proof your house, build the perfect sandcastle, has five no-fail jokes, and helps you deal with kids who won’t eat must be worth having!
The book is chaptered into different areas, Baby Stuff, Little Kid Stuff, Big Kid Stuff, Teen Stuff and Beyond, it offers lots of "dad humour" views on parenting as well as useful tips and pointers!
I particularly liked the "how to photograph your child" section and "how to rid a room of monsters" - monster repellant spray recipe included!The book is full of "dad humour" from a jokes section to "male humour: what is and is not funny" including toilet humour! and most importantly - building sandcastles!
Available from amazon with an rrp of £6.99
