Fathers: They Simply Play Differently
27 March 20133 Comments
Now that I have three kids, the eldest being a nine year old girl, I can really see how Dads somehow play with the kids … differently.
At least, I know the father of my kids does.
He tickles more.
He wrestles.
He swings the kids (while I would sometimes say… ‘Careful with the arms”)
And oh, he tells great, imaginative bedtime stories too (while I tend to go with … errr, book reading)
…
Thank God for involved and supportive Daddies.
Because while they are not perfect (there’s none anyway), their positive involvement and presence do make a huge difference in their children’s lives.

Correct! Daddies are just different from Moms when they play with the kids. Men are generally more laid-back when playing with babies or kids.

=) Yes … and it does give a ‘balance’ ‘to raising kids … =)
Yes, Amen! Even the same toys are manipulated and play differently with and by Papa. We can’t do without him! 😀
