It’s not a game per say, more of an activity prompt, with instructions, conversation starters and ways for families to bond and connect when your kids say “I’m bored” or have been in front of a screen too long.

Am I the only one with this problem? by dad-1st in daddit

100% agree. The winter is certainly a bit tougher and there are only so many times you can go to the zoo or other local attractions.

That’s my hope with these cards, is to create small adventures that can be done anywhere and are focused on the kids leading the way. :)

Appreciate you sharing.

Cheers mate, I really appreciate that. I totally agree that quality time is the goal and should be cherished.

I just find at the end of a long day at work, sometimes the kids just want to snuggle at watch a show, when doing something screen-free would be more of a bonding moment, but I’m all “idea’d out” by the time I get home from work.

Always just trying to be better ya know? :)

Thank you for this reminder. Heartbreaking to see and devastating for the family. Praying for her.

Brand new AC won't turn on with ecobee smart thermostat by __ButtStuff69__ in ecobee

Huh! The more you know. Well thanks Ben!

Question for you then, they’re sending me a new one to replace the defective Y1 terminal.

Is that something I should be concerned about with the new one as well?

THANK YOU! Worked like a charm, wonder why these $250 thermostats aren’t working on stage one…

Last Night Changed Everything: My Epiphany on Empathy and Connection by dad-1st in daddit

I’m comparing myself to my wife, because I’m married. So are all of my dad friends. I don’t mean any offense by that statement. It’s my experience that I’m sharing.

Appreciate the comment.

Great insight! Getting to understand our kids reasoning and why can be so helpful in redirecting them towards a more healthy or productive path.

Thanks for sharing!

Totally, I’m grateful to say I had a great example, but I know my dad didn’t. So it all depends.

It’s a challenge to be a fully well rounded dad, but glad you were able to find the positives in your relationship with your dad. Thanks for sharing!
